Star Wars Christmas, Reimagined

Star Wars by Olly Moss

Tempting though it might be to go to YouTube and dig up the fantastically awful Star Wars Christmas special for epic embedding, I instead present some very awesome posters by Olly Moss, designed for Mondo. (Via Fanboy.com.)

This is one creative set of illustrations: the twin suns as C3PO’s eyes, and the Bespin/Fett mashup is terrific. Even Darth Vader has to admit, he looks good in ‘trees’.

Planet Posters

I owe my finding of these fantastic Star Wars planet “poster” graphics to my friend Lexa (who makes me look like I have merely a casual interest in the Star Wars universe. Which, uh… is really not the case!!) I dearly hope justinvg gets these made as actual posters; they’d go so well with the IYA 2009 posters which I long to own.

UPDATE: Posters available here!!

Retro Posters

These posters are actually new, made for the International Year of Astronomy last year. To me they’re a blast from the 70s and I love them all. (It was hard to choose just two to show you.) I saw them here, you can buy them here.

Sorted Solar System

All (known) Bodies in the Solar System Larger than 200 Miles in Diameter

Here’s an amazing image for you: All (known) Bodies in the Solar System Larger than 200 Miles in Diameter (there’s a lot of horizontal scrolling involved.) You can order it through Zazzle as a print, though even the largest size is only 6″ tall (and 52″ long), which makes me wonder how legible it would be. Maybe it’s better to download the screen version, which at 11,060 x 1,000 pixels is quite viewable! Below is a small snippet of it:
