- inactive, on 04/14/2008, -10/+289Why are the Emperor's Guard there? They guard the Emperor, not Vader.
- strobelite33, on 04/14/2008, -10/+178madness? THIS IS ENDOR!!!
- Niubai, on 04/14/2008, -6/+145It will never be so awesome as this Star Wars work of art:
http://img160.imageshack.us/img160/889/12075208838 ... - bosssmiley, on 04/14/2008, -2/+117Work in the Imperialist Realism style showing the glorious warriors of the Empire under the direction of Lord Vader quashing the crypto-fascist Rebellist insurgents.
- Kurando, on 04/14/2008, -3/+110I wonder who pissed off the Empire so much that Vader had to go down himself with the Emperor's Guard.
- rblancarte, on 04/14/2008, -9/+103There are a lot of things that are confusing about the photo:
1. why are the SCOUT Troopers in the back?
2. why is there no uniformity of the weapons of the Storm Troopers (in a battle sense)?
3. why the heck is Vader seemingly floating?
4. No Tie Fighters for air support?
etc
Don't get me wrong the art work is really good. But it seems more of a throw together of elements of the Empire than a picture of a true attack.
Then again, maybe it is to demonstrate the bad troop management that caused the Empire to lose the war. - anTii, on 04/14/2008, -14/+101. . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . _________

- 88chrisb, on 04/14/2008, -0/+69Vader is riding on the Emperors shoulders silly!
- ninjasaurus, on 04/14/2008, -0/+42"So, which one of those buttons on your chest plate calls your mother to come and pick you up?"
- kweli, on 04/14/2008, -1/+40501st FTW
- CaptEnder, on 04/14/2008, -2/+39To add a splash of color...
/sarcasm - DanteDefiance, on 04/14/2008, -4/+40I find your lack of faith disturbing.
- steelclash84, on 04/14/2008, -0/+32Why not?
- zanyjim, on 04/14/2008, -8/+39Nice art but needs to work on making everything look like it belongs in the same piece.
- analogkid01, on 04/14/2008, -2/+32...Or as clumsy as your grasp of English.
- innocentsinner, on 04/14/2008, -1/+30Dugg for nerdiness
- thenumber8, on 04/14/2008, -1/+26which will never make as much sense as this amazing work:
http://adorkablegrrl.files.wordpress.com/2007/10/s ... - Deviant_Tech, on 04/14/2008, -7/+31NERDS!!!
- crampy20, on 04/14/2008, -65/+89That isnt art. It has no original ideas and no creativity. Its just awful.
- mastersmite, on 04/14/2008, -1/+25actually obi wan messed him up pretty well in ep3, i would consider the loss of both arms and legs a pwning
- Lubinski, on 04/14/2008, -2/+24I want the other half now.
- trp5023, on 04/14/2008, -0/+22For once, this is almost on topic!
- sambapati87, on 04/14/2008, -5/+26all it takes is star wars to be called "amazing" on digg (and subsequently dugg). im a fan of the movies but i wouldnt go so far as to call this "amazing art"
- Darthmalt, on 04/14/2008, -0/+211.Perhaps the rebels are so close the scouts are better placed in the back to observe the lines and movement.
2.The troopers weapons are uniform enough you have the standard issue (dc 17?) and then troops manning E web repeating rifles. Similar to how Real army squads will have most guys with M-16s and one guy on an M-60 or other heavy machine gun.
3. I think we are supposed to assume he is standing on a rock to rally the troops.
4. Tie fighters would add to the scene but maybe they commpleted a strafing run and are circling around.
No idea why the emperors guard would be there.
The AT-AT May have been hit from the side rear and just caused the whole back to explode. - Whackly, on 04/14/2008, -2/+22Dugg up for crypto-fascist.
- SatansSpatula, on 04/14/2008, -1/+20you lie.
- jeremyduffy, on 04/14/2008, -0/+18Vader is deflecting incoming fire. You have it backwards.
- JSager, on 04/14/2008, -0/+16When the time comes, you won't have to.
- punkcat, on 04/14/2008, -3/+19there not as clumsy as a blaster.
- KnightWhoSaysNi, on 04/14/2008, -2/+17What, what, in the butt
- Crosshare, on 04/14/2008, -5/+20NERD!!!
- KMehthas, on 04/14/2008, -0/+15More like "Your hands are metal. Who cares?"
- Punisher2K, on 04/14/2008, -0/+14Turn in your nerd badge NOW
- Mecandes, on 04/14/2008, -2/+15This is great, but if this is the coolest Star Wars art you have ever seen, you haven't been looking very much.
- EvilBaby, on 04/14/2008, -1/+14just a word of advice. Don't browse through the rest of the pictures on the server if you're at work. You might get in a little trouble.
- ohhector, on 04/14/2008, -2/+15If you think this is amazing, I have an AMAZING time share offer you won't be able to resist....
- ExSlashdotter, on 04/14/2008, -2/+14When did you ever see Anakin/Vader using anything *but*?
- BLiNk0, on 04/14/2008, -8/+20I don't want to just crush everybody's dreams, but Star Wars isn't real...I know, I know, but someone had to say it. So let this artist's imagination flow like that of Lucas. They both felt it should be this way for artistic expression alone, not accuracy.
- Harabeck, on 04/14/2008, -0/+12It speaks to the fan boys.
- jwalske, on 04/14/2008, -1/+12Apparently not...
- Pokle, on 04/14/2008, -2/+13you mean I can catch bullets?
- eekthekat, on 04/14/2008, -6/+17meh
- KnytFyre, on 04/14/2008, -0/+11Vader doesn't rally troops, troops go into battle around him simply from fear. While they may die from attacking the enemy, Vader will certainly kill them if they don't.
- DrDragun, on 04/14/2008, -0/+11He can block lasers with his hands and saber but I wonder what Vader would do against a roadside bomb?
- punkcat, on 04/14/2008, -4/+15why did the at at get it in the butt when the enemy is in the front?
some things we will just never know. - chillypacman, on 04/14/2008, -1/+12Asking to be dugg down for stupidity usually generates actual digs, in your case it appears to have backfired.
- tillerman00, on 04/14/2008, -0/+11The questions you have raised lead me to the conclusion that it's highly possible the artist has a life.
- Harabeck, on 04/14/2008, -0/+10He makes great use of star fighters and choking.
- Nighthawke, on 04/14/2008, -2/+12Artistic License..
