(...) I think it's a darn pretty nifty likeness. Just enough caricature to make it interesting. But I want to know, how did you get RealRingo(tm) to pose alongside LegoRingo(tm)?? We can never photograph our cats, they won't hold still long enough. (22 years ago, 28-Jan-03, to lugnet.build.sculpture)

(...) What a great idea! What did she think of it? <<snip URL's>> (...) I was blown away *before* I saw the real thing, but it's even more amazing when you see how close it is to the original (however not in 1:1 scale :-) ). Also, what did the cat (...)

I think we've all seen this guy before. Red M&M was built from a smaller M&M dispenser we have. Took only about a week to complete. Unsure how many bricks. I hope you enjoy. (URL) (22 years ago, 27-Jan-03, to lugnet.announce.moc, lugnet.announce, lugnet.build, lugnet.build.sculpture)
