Wow... just wow. I love his mix of impressive engineering with compelling and beautiful art. He matches them so fluidly, it almost seems lifelike at times. I would certainly love to meet him, and perhaps catch some of his creations up close in person. 
. I'm constantly amazed by some people's imagination and ability.
