Read MoreIt's everyone's favorite hell-spawn with a heart of gold, Hellboy. I'm a fan of this movie, and the fact that I played a completely insignificant role in it's making fills me with strangely misplaced pride. According to the builder vitreolum, he really enjoys building these busts. I find that encouraging because I certainly enjoy seeing them (and of course sharing them with you).
Eero Okkenen has come up with another stunning figure making use of those nifty "orient-esque" pieces from the Final Flight of Destiny's Bounty Nijago set.

So creating a literal yet mythological interpretation is certainly an intriguing concept, and I'd argue worthy of an entire anime series.
If you've seen Hellboy this should be instantly recognizable. And if you haven't...WHY NOT!? It's unclear if this is inspired by Mike Mignola's original comics or Guillermo del Toro's brilliant interpretation of those comics. Either way, this MOC by buriedbybricks is phenomenal.
Twitch Plays Pokemon is one of those social experiments that seems to bring a great many people pleasure, with seemingly next to no benefits to society. But you can't get that many people in one place interacting without some spark of inspiration or restoration of faith in humanity. And anything that sparks creativity can't be bad. Besides, it inspired this MOC by Âtin, so it's all good.
