How aweome I want one.. This is so inspiring and beautiful. He surely is one talanted man. I thought how neat it would be to make one of those. Then I saw all the measurments he had to figure up for one sculpture. I thought woah that man has to be a genius to be able to make those. With my poor math skills there is no way I would be able to do something like that.
