A Photo Editor Creates Mashups Between Memorable Movie Characters, and Here Are 30 of the Best Examples
What happens when you let Darth Vader present Simba to the Animal Kingdom? Well, you’re about to find out.
Have you ever watched characters in movies and instantly felt that they would do well in a crossover with others? Imagine an epic movie where all your favorites come together.
It’s probably close to impossible sometimes, and your only hope is for someone to create a scene where they’re edited together. Well, a Photoshop editor known as Pixelfaker is doing just that and posting his work on Instagram.
There really isn’t much information about the artist. They tend to be low-key when it comes to sharing and limit it to the work they do.
Not only does he incorporate memorable characters into the worlds of others, but he also includes them in pictures of iconic events. You’ll see some blending well with the environments they were edited into, while others feel quite topsy-turvy.
Fans of both the artist and the films appreciate the amusement they get from scrolling through the posts, commenting here and there to point out why it’s so accurate. They enjoy the end result of the artist’s process just as much as he does.
What Pixelfaker does is definitely the ultimate expression of a creative mashup. If you scroll down this list, you’ll get to see and enjoy his work.
