Nemo Gould’s Giant Squid Instructable
Over at Instructables, Mr Nemo Gould has posted how he made the beautiful moving Giant Squid mechanical creature that we posted about some time ago. It is so easy to forget just how big this wonderful contraption-like piece of art is, but when you think that the head of the giant squid was formed in part from lamppost heads and that fully assembled the whole thing is approximately as tall as a man, then you can start to grasp what a magnificent beast it is.
So if you have wondered how you’d make a giant squid sculpture from found materials (and I’d imagine the proportion of people who can say that they have is higher here than in other corners of the aetherweb) then Instructables and the wonderful Mr Gould can point the way. I also rather like his ‘John Deer’ sculpture too. Thank you Mr Newall, Ophichius and Mr Peregrine John.
