Artist Kyle Hagey thinks that Star Wars characters need a bit of a rest of their fighting and uprising, so he's giving them a vacation.

Hagey has created a series of portraits on his Etsy shop that feature the iconic characters relaxing hard in a galaxy far, far away. From tandem bike-riding to tea-sipping, Darth and company are able to indulge in some much-needed R&R. Because living (and surviving) in the Star Wars universe is no easy feat.

Even some minor characters get a little bit of love. Who's that chilling in a hotel room with a private balcony? "I guess it's a boozed up droid enjoying his (or her) day off from shooting stuff," Hagey writes on the product description.

Oh, and we can't forget Yoda flipping the bird at a passerby (he's taking a vacation from his manners, apparently).

And then, of course, there's Mr. Vader himself. "Here's Darth just sipping some bomb ass tea minding his own business," writes Hagey. "Maybe he's plotting some evil deeds. Or maybe he's just pondering his life and how it got to this point. I can't really say for sure."

And Darth's stormtroopers are never far away, even when they're partaking in fun couples' activities. "Good soldiers require good training. A tandem bike provides exercise, team building skills, and voluptuous calf muscles," writes Hagey. "There's also bees, but they're hard to see."

As for C-3PO daydreaming in a field of flowers?

"I have no idea why I made this. Just thought it'd be nice."
