Magnificent, you must be my favourite sculpture builder.
Love sculptures. Maybe I should buy myself a 3D scanner. Next engine maybe, Modo...The building instructions are for the small version. Do you have them also for the large blue version?
I you have them somewhere please let me know. Many thanks |

I would say great, but this is not enough. Speechless...I've dowloaded the building instruction for the small one. I've just finished my Stanford Angel and I'd love to build the large Gargoyle. Do you have similar instructions for this big guy? Thank you very much for answering. Paul |

Holy Crap!!! Only 10 comments!!! This is amazing!!! Whew... Now, on to the seriousness. I like the overall look of this sculpture, meaning the curvature of the wings, the look of the arms and legs, how it sits on the base all menacing, like it wants to rip you apart. Lastly, the fact that you built it only out of standard bricks. Great work! |

Very nice. That's my opinion, and I'm sticking with it. I think it would have been better with a grey boulder though, because the blue blends in with the feet. |

This is spectacular. I like the orange one too! It's very clean too, not to rough around the edges, but still has that "Lego" feel.. |
