Lightsabers Make Everything Cooler

So says Mathue Shell of Geekstir, who is (presumably) the creator of this photoshop. It’s an adaptation of John Trumbull’s 1795 painting “The Death of General Mercer at the Battle of Princeton”, owned by the Yale University Art Gallery.

    I missed the death star in the corner the first time I looked at this. Fantastic!

    It’s kinda funny that the Brits are the Jedis.

    I love posts like these that actually make me laugh out loud. :D

    Cute idea but it’s a particularly terrible photoshop. It’s beyond easy to make a lightsaber (just a line with an outer glow) but the light from them should be casting light on the people, too.

    I do also find it humorous that the Brits are the Jedi…clearly the “rebels” should be the English.
