     If  you need something to reignite your love of  the Disney-Lucasverse Star Wars: The Complete Vader is an excellent coffee table book from Random House at a bargain price!

     There are plenty of glossy images, pullouts and keepsakes with a surprisingly thorough text, so even hardcore Star Wars fans should see or read something new.

These images I found in the Japanese Vogue Beauty Dec. As a sill stylist myself I was blown away by the beauty of these images. Who were these dolls. They are so mystical, so Haute Couture (even though they are nude).

The creator of these dolls is Marina Bychkova and she is an amazing artist. Her dolls are so refined.

     It took seven months and approximately 40,000 Lego bricks for Romanian artist Mihai Marius Mihu to create The Nine Circles Of Hell from the Literary Classic Dante’s Divine Comedy.

     Where will you end up?

Every year the Mexican holiday Day of the Dead brings us some beautiful artwork. Star Wars fans will love these illustrations from American graphic designer John Karpinsky in his Day of the Dead inspired Star Wars characters. The collection of illustrations includes several popular characters from the popular Star Wars franchise.

What a find! Incredible Day Of The Dead Star Wars Art. Lots of tattoo potential here!

Crazy awesome artist Hatboy, had combined something truly awesome.  Tim Burton gothic style art and Pokemon.  Luckily, this guy is from my generation and he seems to be using the first 150 as his content material.  As you can see from above, he takes a popular Pokemon type and redraws them with Tim Burton trademark creepy features and distinct art style...I can't seem to find another word for it besides gothic and I keep wanting to use Corpse Bridey/Nightmare Before Christmasy.
