This weekend, I was showing my son some artwork based on the steampunk Star Wars concept and explaining the general idea behind the steampunk subgenre as a whole. Being an avid Lego builder, he was apparently inspired to put together his own steampunk Star Wars creation. I present to you Caleb’s steampunk Darth Vader Lego fig.

There are a couple of beautiful details in this build. I love the white piece on his back that my son tells me is a turbine generator that powers Vader’s suit. And he also thought to re-purpose a telescope from his Lego pirate set as a brass lightsaber handle. Fantastic. I love it!

There’s a couple more pictures on our Brick Boys Flickr photostream.
