Dog Vader Looks More Like The Emperor

Filed under: Internet, Wearables

Torture dogs much? Then you’ll get a kick out of this Darth Vader costume for your canine companion. Despite this dog resembling the likeness of Darth Sidius rather than his apprentice, we approve of dogs dressed up in Star Wars-themed costumes. We only wish there were even more sci-fi costumes available for our pets. Hit the jump to see what I mean.

Hot Air Balloon Soars To A Galaxy Far, Far Away

Filed under: Design, Transportation

In a world of good-guy smugglers and noble Jedi, one Sith must instill fear any way he can. That’s why Darth Vader built this hot air balloon. Not just because the town fare is approaching and Vader wanted to make sure he’ll be soaring high next to the Yogi bear and Batman inflatables but because Vader wishes to scare away would-be padawan learners with his hot air balloon visage.  Be careful: one collision with a Star Destroyer and it’s all over.

The Last HOPE: Screen Printing

Filed under: DIYs, Design, Hacks, Wearables

A sign for screen printing was posted in the “Hackerspace Village” when we arrived Saturday. As we stood there watching them make imprints in shirts, they asked us for help (hackers are so friendly!) and well, this helped us get a closer look into how they were making these sweet Darth Vader designs on t-shirts.

The Hacktory was showing off its way of promoting the use of technology in arts. The team there was using discharge glue, which acts like a bleach towards color pigments, forming some cool designs in their name after it’s set to dry. Two of which included Star Wars inspired designs: Darth Vader and a Storm Trooper. $5 t-shirts, free if you brought your own blank one means it was the best t-shirt offer at the Last HOPE Conference.
