Using The Force: Scottish Artist Creates Funny Star Wars Scenes

In one photo a stormtrooper reads a paper whilst sitting on the toilet, while in another Darth Vader shows his softer side by admiring a flower.

Scottish photographer and artist David Gilliver uses Star Wars toys and doll’s house props for the pieces.

The 35-year-old has always been a massive fan of the films, and said: "The toys vary in size.

"Some of the figures are six inches tall, and some are half that size so I have a variety of props that I use for each different scene.

"Most of the props are intended for doll’s houses, and I mainly buy the toys and props from Ebay and Amazon.

"If I am not working outdoors.

"I basically create a mini set for the figures on a desk at home.

"I then spend some time creating different scenes until something makes me laugh.

"On average, each shot probably takes something like 30 minutes to set up and shoot. It’s a pretty simple process."

One of the images shows a stormtrooper pushing another stormtrooper in a shopping trolley.

In another photo Darth Vader uses a Henry hoover to clear up a mess from his dog - a smaller version of an Imperial AT-AT Walker.

David is originally from Glasgow but is now based in Guernsey. He currently works in finance but hopes to work as a photographer full time.

He has been making the images since June last year.
