¿A quiénes les gustan los Legos?
 
Cuando fue un niño me gustaron los Legos:)
Me gustan las fotos, Difference Engine, y V8 engine, y Relativity



LEGO is something people just love to play with. No matter if you are a kid, an adult or an old person, if you are able to see, you will love LEGO. These small bricks when coupled with some creativity and time can turn up into some of the most stunning and breath-taking sculptures ever. If you want to built some LEGO creation of your own but don’t know what to built, here is some inspiration. These LEGO creations are a wonder in their own and I am sure that you will love most of them.

Beautiful work! It's amazing what people do with their hobbies. :)

Although it seems to me that Escher's one is tricked... I can't imagine how they made the spatial effect on stairs with volume. :thinking:
