In an alternate galaxy, far, far away, the character actors in Star Wars aren't made up of a human cast but a horde of animals, wielding lightsabers and donning stormtrooper gear made for their various shapes and sizes.

That appears to be the vision of New York-based designer Blank William who came up with an amazing series of Star Wars-themed helmets shaped like animal heads.

Titled "The New Order," the series of helmets perfectly replicate the look and feel of the iconic black and white helmets from the Star Wars franchise, just with a whimsical, yet no less badass twist.

Among the animals provided with their own special helmets are elephants, rhinos and hippos, each with a helmet design that caters to unique characteristics of the animal. William says he created the works because of his love for Star Wars and that the design was informed in part by samurai helmets and pilot masks.

Although the helmets look like real sculptures, at this point they are only extremely realistic computer renderings.

However, because the renderings have become so popular, William plans on trying to turn the images into real world helmets you can touch.
