This LEGO sculpture depicts the very definition of a flamer. Made using every fiery LEGO piece he could get his hands on, David Pickett created Helios, the flaming LEGO monster. I can hear the cheesy action hero taglines now. “If you play with fire, you’re gonna get burrrrned, son.” Look, there might be other, easier ways to create your own ...

There’s jewelry made FOR your belly button, and then there’s jewelry inspired by your belly button. Taiwanese designer Yuyen Chang created these ultra-realistic Orifice Jewelry; brooches, rings and pendants inspired by your most underused orifice, the belly button.

Bert Simons created this excellent anatomical papercraft of the muscles of the human skull. Simons calls it an “anatomically incorrect representation,” but it looks pretty damn nifty, incorrect or not. Link [via]

I had “hacked up body” on my Christmas wishlist, but sadly, Santa didn’t deliver last year, which is really lame, because I would have used this $400 ultra-realistic body for Halloween this year. *sigh* Maybe I’ll get lucky this year. Come on Santa, don’t make me beg. Link [via]

You’ve tried everything. You’ve tried rebuilding damaged architecture with LEGOs. You’ve tried building crazy reconstructions of video game characters. Hell, you’ve even tried recreating other forms of geek media with brick art. And guess what. None of your efforts have amused LEGO Satan. That deal you made with the devil for a lifetime supply of Jolt cola in exchange for ...

The Tour de Force project by Ochre Jelly depicts action scenes based on the Star Wars’ Clone Wars universe, but with a twist. The scenes are composed of awesome LEGO sculptures. Jelly has a unique take on Star Wars LEGO building. I really love the use of LEGO bricks to create the illusion of lightsaber movement.

I’ve never heard of the firm Hardcore Design before but I’m surprised the Wachowski brothers didn’t hire them to design props for the original Matrix flick. Using pipes, aluminum, steel and other industrial products, Hardcore manages to create some of the most beautiful and unique sculptures and furniture. Hit the jump and let the pictures do all the talking.

Ah, yes! Do you remember Lockwasher? He’s the ultimate DIYer, creating robots and sculptures from metal junk. I know, that was awhile ago but he’s back with some really awesome creations this time around. This one is called Beer2-D3 and you can easily make your own with a free afternoon, random parts and a case of Heineken it seems: What ...

I like gummi bears. I like ’em a lot. Good thing artist and designer YaYa Chou likes gummi bears, too. She makes a slew of gummi bear goodies like this chandelier by linking them together with monofilament wire. The end product is a kick ass light source that’s good enough to eat. Other gummi bear works of YaYa Chou include ...

Brad Toemel was either in a badass fraternity during his college tenure or maybe he’s just an alcoholic bum. Either way, his 8-foot sculpture called FOUNTAIN is a wonder to behold in one’s eyes. It’s made from a shitload of Miller Lite, Keystone Light, PBR, Budweiser and Miller High Life cans, paying tribute to America’s love of binge drinking. It’s ...
