My inspiration for the model came from the art of MC Escher. I wanted to build something in his style.

Artists hands drawing so beautifully that it actually comes to live. The further away from the paper, the more detailed, ready to scurry away in the underbrush when the tail is done. The model has been on display in The LEGO House and LEGO land for 2 years and many people commented about it so I guess they liked it a lot :)

The lizard is built mostly with SNOT techniques and I wanted the hands to be articulate so they can be posed in any way desired.

Built with 1806 bricks and despite the size, the model can be lifted with 2 hands because of the sturdy base.
