LEGO Star Wars -S. Fujita

Starting way back in 1992, Mr. Fujita set forth to create an all-LEGO* version of the original Star Wars trilogy (Episodes IV-VI). Over the next 155 weeks, he meticulously and faithfully constructed dozens and dozens of models and locations at various scales and photographed these using true-to-the-film camera angles. The result is a mindblowingly incredible homage to Star Wars comprising nearly 200 still images.

* Well, 99.9% anyway. Paper, cotton, and a few other construction materials are used as backdrops in certain scenes. There is also a tiny bit of minifig head modification. The strange animal-like creatures, by the way, are actual LEGO Fabuland figures from yesteryear.
