The Vader Project returns to a galaxy not too far away--that galaxy being sunny Los Angeles. The amazing exhibition is coming to an end, but not before another stop in L.A. for an auction, where the 100 creative masks will be sold to the highest bidder.
Since our first report and subsequent updates on the Vader Project, the exhibit has only grown in popularity, and it's not hard to see why. Take a look at even more of the incredibly-designed masks as the Vader Project returns. And may the force by with anyone trying to get their hands on one at the auction.
