The Exorcist Art Projects

Construct your own "Star Wars" Craft project.


"Star Wars" released in 1977 by George Lucas has created one of the most flourishing science fiction franchises in anecdote. Five also movies include been fictional, also as cartoon series, countless books, toys and other related merchandise. There are many deviating Craft projects for students engrossed in "Star Wars."


Papier-Mâché Darth Vader


Darth Vader is perhaps the most famous icon from "Star Wars." This imposing, black-clad Jedi Knight is terrifyingly powerful and terrifyingly evil. Though he is redeemed at the very end of the series, he remains an impressive villain. Creating a papier-mâché Darth Vader can be a lot of fun. You will need some sturdy wires to create a frame, paint and some papier-mâché. Mixing white glue to water in a 3:1 ratio makes papier-mâché paste. Drench strips of newspaper in the paste and press it to the model. Using some wire cutters, glue and careful bending you should create a basic frame for your model. Look at pictures of "Darth Vader" online for reference. Once you've made your frame, cover it with your papier-mâché. Let it dry completely and then paint the model to look like Darth Vader. This can be displayed around the house or even hollowed out and used as a piñata for a "Star Wars"-themed party.


Death Star Pumpkin


Another potent image from the "Star Wars" series was the Death Star. The Death Star was a massive space station that was capable of destroying entire planets. Creating your own Death Star out of a pumpkin is a fun way to celebrate Halloween or simply to celebrate "Star Wars." Find a pumpkin that resembles a perfect sphere as much as possible. Cut off the top and remove the seeds and insides from the pumpkins. Cut off the stem and replace the top. Start by lightly grooving the surface of the pumpkin in a half inch strip in the middle of the pumpkin. The strip should go all the way around the pumpkin. Use a shoe box or a larger cardboard box to recreate your scene. Paint it to resemble the area in the scene and add anything else you may need. Sand can be used to recreate the desert scenes or small model trees can be placed on fake green grass for the wood scenes.


Diorama


Dioramas are small models that recreate larger scenes from nature, movies or anything else you may want to recreate. Creating a "Star Wars" diorama from one of your favorite scenes should be easy. There are many iconic moments in the "Star Wars" series, from the infamous battle scenes to Luke Skywalker's touching goodbye to his evil, but redeemed father Darth Vader. Carve small grooves in the pumpkin parallel to the center groove. Carve small grooves connecting these grooves to create squares. This will mimic the basic look of the Death Star. Use a picture to finish. Buy some "Star Wars" toys and carefully place them up in your diorama. Attach them to small metal rods with glue or string and carefully stand the metal rods up in your diorama. This will keep your figures in place. Once you are finished, display it around the house.
