I can't get enough of this Lego Star Wars photography
The force is strong with these, etc.
Here at Creative Bloq, we're fans of photography, we like Star Wars and we're partial to a bit of Lego. So it goes without saying that Lego Star Wars based photography is somewhat up our street.
Digital Creator Hue Hughes has been sharing stunningly cinematic photographs of toys for a while, and you'd be forgiven for thinking the backdrops and effects involve a fair amount of Photoshop. But as the artist recently revealed in an interview with Gizmodo, most of the effects are created practically. (Keen to start shooting? Check out the best camera deals available now.)

“The only digital manipulation was color grading, the addition of lightsabers, glowing eyes, and the sun and moon,” Hughes told Gizmodo's io9. "I create all of my own environments using common materials. Backing powder, sand, and construction paper make up the bulk of my building materials."
