Jordan Schwartz continues to amaze me with his unconventional ways of building with LEGO. Not satisfied with the official LEGO cephalopod, Jordan decided to create his own version of an octopus.
I’ll admit, it took me a moment to figure out exactly what the animal was made of. I knew it had to be LEGO, but I couldn’t tell what it was at first. Can you guess? Would you like a hint?
One word — tires.
Right about now you’re probably saying “What? Tires?”
Yes, tires, inside-out tires. That, along with a lot of other snazzy techniques is how Jordan made this little guy.
