Richard Wilkinson is working on a series of insect illustrations based on pop culture characters. Star Wars fans will recognize who inspired each of these insects, but non-Star Wars fans will be forgiven if they take them as real species.
The first book of the series, working title: “Arthropoda Iconicus Volume I: Insects From A Far Away Galaxy”, is a collection of insects that bear a subtle yet uncanny resemblance to characters and vehicles from the worlds favourite space opera.
It is pegged for release in the late summer of this year.
The series will eventually have 60 insect illustrations, of which some will be available as prints. See an overview of them at Wilkonson’s website and even more at Instagram. If you find one that stumps you, check out the Instagram hashtags. -via Geeks Are Sexy
