'Force Awakens' characters rendered as Regency era portraits

What would it look like if characters from The Force Awakens were born in the Regency era? This is the question Mer, who runs the Star Wars fan blog The Real McGee, asked himself when he created these playful new illustrations. Some of our favorite characters like Rey, Finn and Kylo Ren got the Regency treatment as images of them resembled 19th century portraits. If you're interested in owning a work of art from Mer, you can purchase these illustrations as prints on his Society6 store.

Indonesia's Irene Saputra is one of them, and more than 45,000 people on Instagram already follow her. Handmade from colorful threads stitched onto fabric, Irene's embroideries begin as original illustrations. What I really like about her stitched pieces is that some of them are meant to be worn. Look at an array of her handiwork!

The Adorable Sculptures of Yen Yen Lo

These images are from a series of wall sculptures created by Yen Yen Lo . Here you can see her intricately textured ceramic pieces, looking downright adorable. Yen Yen Lo's eye for the unique and whimsical is delightful. Apparently they are not intended for kids under 16. Fifteen-year-olds cannot be trusted with fragile stuff. Get them a Funko Pop instead.
