Star Wars Action Figure Graffiti Is Absolutely Stunning

Posted on 17/03/2014 by Federico Lo Giudice

Fitting of every geek’s darling, there’s Star Wars graffiti all over the biggest cities in the world, but hardly one quite as stylish as this set.

The artist behind this collection is an animated character designer by the name of Phil Postma. He created this bunch of illustrations (meaning, it’s not an actual graffiti on some city’s walls, just done in that style) of imaginary Star Wars action figures cards.

The inspiration for the project came when Postma saw an image of an R2-D2 action figure made to resemble a spray can, and the rest is history.

Postma claims to be no street artist by any means, but after seeing these, we sorta wish he’d reconsider.
