Embarrassment

Okay this is not strictly games-related, but still super cool; a Storm Trooper Helmet carving, Maori style.

Now this is not only awesome because the Troopers are clones of Jango Fett (played by New Zealand actor Temuera Morrison, who is of Maori descent), but it’s even cooler because the helmet was made by Daniel Logan who played the young Boba Fett in Star Wars: Attack of the Clones. Ho Snap!

The helmet was a 501st project by Daniel with the assistance of Shawna M. Hogan-Moore (Red Elk), Darcienne Sparber and Michael Moore (HMS Creative Productions). It was sold at a charity auction for $3500.

Please paint a dystopian vision of various nursery rhymes. Little Miss Muffet is being devoured by a giant spider, while Little Bo Peep is searching frantically for her lost sheep, unaware that the owl and the pussycat – orchestrating an elaborate sheep-rustling operation – have made off with them in a boat, laughing manically in the process. Jill is trying to heal Jack’s wounds with little luck, and a cow, having leapt over the moon, has landed on all the king’s horses and men, rendering them unable to even attempt to fix Humpty. The three blind mice are hiding in various parts of the picture, and a knife wielding farmer’s wife is hunting them down.
