Wood chip sculptures

I saw this and thought I would pass it along. The amount of time it takes to make them is unbelievable.

Wow! That is amazing! The only thing I can make a pile of wood chips look like is ANOTHER pile of wood chip!!!

I saw your thread about time (the poster) and the first thing I thought of when I saw the first picture here, is the one who makes those should NEVER utter the words "Not enough time".... LOL

[FONT=&quot]Sergey has been doing this for some time now, but he has only created 11 wood-chip sculptures. That's because just one of these incredible artworks takes around six months to complete, at a work rate of 10 to 12 hours a day, with no days off. Sergei Bobkov focuses on wildlife creatures, and he studies their anatomy for months, before starting work on a sculpture.[/FONT]
[FONT=&quot]Even though he was offered $17,000 for his wood-chip eagle, Sergei's Bobkov declined, saying his art is not for sale.[/FONT]
