Howdy, everyone. Hope you're doing well. I am unfortunately sick, but I won't use this little apple box to project upon all of you my misery.
Thank you all for participating in the Stanley Kubrick Artist Challenge. I've picked my faves of all entries and posted them below. Yes, two of the images are of Legos, which I think is pretty awesome. The things that can be expressed with Legos...
Also, Sue Barnicoat ( @suebarni ) might have the most extensive Lego collection I have ever seen. That's pretty wild, Sue. I kind of wish I had all of those, but my cats would probably eat them.
Anyway, on with the show!
The shots are below, in no particular order, with my commentary, because I'm just a chatty guy. Garrulous Gary, they called me back in the day.
No... No, they didn't, but I can pretend.
Please vote in the comments, and when the voting starts to trickle out like a bag of popcorn after in the microwave for three minutes, I'll declare the winner.
Thanks again, folks.

I gotta say, I'm a big fan of the processing, plus the ragtag Lego man. Who ever would have thought a stormtrooper top could double so well?

Admittedly, this picture is a little less nippletastic than its inspiration, but it's still pretty awesome on its own.

Great lighting, great content. Very straightforward, this one.

@suebarni -- one more time!
Sue made so many great entries that I couldn't pick only one. This picture is particularly brilliant because I was so busy comparing it to the original that it took me about twenty minutes to realize it was a man in a wig. I think. (I hope?) What a great effort!

A solid reinterpretation of one of Kubrick's shots, with an impressive amount of detail paid to the fingers.

Another great reinterpretation. Particularly enjoyed the swapping of the rollercoaster for the playground jungle gym thing.
See ya!
