That's a sculpture I'd be proud to have on my desk. It stands up very well
compared to the other items you've got displayed, and the scale is impressive.
Speaking of standing up, did you have any balance issues? Did you have to stack
extra brick inside the back portion to counterbalance the large portion sticking
out front? Just curious.
BTW, my kids are now agitating that I build one for them. :) They've got their
own bricks, I think I'll turn it around on 'em and see what they come up with.
This is great inspiration.
Regards,
Kelly
