I LOVE this! How magically creative for a cheap thrill. Can you make a colony of penguins next?!
These look a lot like Spore creatures.. have to wonder how many months we are from one-click fabrication of designs (and how many decades from one-click living creatures).
Where could we see them ?
What is the exact location.
Where is next spot ???
Thanks
Love it !
It’d be interesting to see an elephant and a mouse.
Perhaps a human?
