The Grand Army of the Republic is on the move

RogueBantha presents a scene from the Star Wars universe. I love the camera angle in this shot.

Cafe got caterpillar

Is your Cafe Corner a bit too laid back? Too staid? Too colorful? Then mechanize that bad boy!!! Izzo did.

Oh, and in his somewhat more normal version, the sidewalks move and it’s always raining:
