This is a crab coming out of an old Campbell's Soup can. I made this for the Tanana Valley Fair 2010 LEGO Contest.
Originally this was going to be a lighthouse, but I couldn't get the tapering to work right, so I turned it into a giant soup can.
This model won a blue ribbon for the Creatures/Aliens category.
About this creation
The crab uses a few different SNOT techniques.
Here is a photo of just the can itself. It's rounded by way of the 1x3 plus 1x1 rounds technique. The words are stickers printed out on the computer.
It was great getting to meet you over this past weekend, Ty. I'd love to see more of your creations when you have time to post them up. This one is quite clever.
