The talented digital artisans in the Worth1000 community have struck Photoshop gold once again with their latest 'Star Wars' fine art competition. These remastered masterpieces pit 'Star Wars' characters we've grown to love (and worship) against renowned fine art styles and paintings in an epic battle of pop culture vs. high culture.
The collection in the gallery above are some of my favorite pieces from the Worth1000 collection. I'm especially a fan of "Darth-Giger," the image that leads off the bunch. Check out some other splendid Worth1000 competitions below.
