     Ver'cool.  I'd prefer to see it built in a warmer colorful pallete
though.  Maybe switch the white for red, the blue for yellow, and the grey
for green or possibly tan.  What I'd really like to see, though, is a
similar sculpture modeled after an eastern dragon.

     I do have a few questions though.  How many bricks per circumference?
Is that as small a diameter as you could achieve (I suspect so, since making
it larger might allow it to sag)?

(...) 36 1x2 bricks per circumference. It seemed the right size, and happened to connect--not without some fussing, though. -Henry (22 years ago, 18-May-03, to lugnet.build.sculpture)
