Star Wars: Darth Vader

Brand: Buffalo
Pieces: 300
Size: 54cm x 38cm
Product Code:  2801

For once I'm relatively organised when it comes to posting for an 'event'! 

In two days it will be May 4th (Star Wars Day for all you non-geeks out there) and so, in anticipation (and because I only post here and on Instagram on Saturdays) I I have decided to put up a puzzle of Darth Vader that I absolutely love. The colours and the design are incredible and it's a perfect pairing with the Yoda puzzle (also by Buffalo) that I have put up previously. Illustrated designs like these really appeal to me and I wish that I could draw or create nearly as well. 

The above puzzle had relatively large and thick cardboard pieces and took a bit longer to do than I anticipated, due to the similar colours. But you have to admit that the end result is pretty spectacular.

I have a few more Buffalo branded puzzles to do in the future- Star Wars with a Christmas theme- and I can't wait to showcase those when we get closer to December. 

Until then, May the Fourth be with you! ;)

Star Wars Tower Puzzle

Brand: Cardinal
Pieces: 100
Size: 12.7cm x 47.7cm
Product Code: -

Yesterday was May the 4th, so it seems almost obligatory to post a Star Wars puzzle to mark the occasion! 

May the Fourth be with you! 

Luckily I had one more finished Star Wars puzzle in my folio of completed puzzles- even if it is only a small one! Featuring an illustration of Rey, Finn and BB-8 from the Force Awakens, this puzzle is a wonderful likeness of the characters, and, although I'm sure it's aimed at children, was a nice addition to my puzzle collection. 

The pieces quality was wonderful and fit well together, making this quick and fun to do.  I'll have to make sure I get another Star Wars themed puzzle done in time for next year- I have a few in the (x) wings...

P.S. Sorry not sorry for the crappy Star Wars pun :) 

Star Wars Collage

Unless you live under a rock, you will know that several days ago was May 4th- AKA Star Wars Day (May The Fourth Be With You). As has been the case over the last few years, the internet was overrun with Star Wars- related memes, photos, puns, and paraphernalia. 

So of course it makes sense that I would put up a photo of a Star Wars puzzle I have completed (even if it's a few days late)!

This design features comic book cover images from over the years, set out in an overlapping collage format. The colours are bright, and typical of the imagery from that era. This was a fun puzzle to do and the pieces were of relatively high quality. The design is perfect for fans of Star Wars, comic books and graphic novels, and features all the popular characters and more.
