LEGO Steampunk City Is Mad Max On Rainbows And Acid [Sculpture]

LEGO Steampunk City Is Mad Max On Rainbows And Acid [Sculpture]: "

Who says the end of civilization has to be totally drab? Dave DeGobbi's massive eco-punk crawler city brightens up the post-apocalypse, looking like a Mardi Gras float designed by Master Blaster himself.


Degobbi's epic LEGO sculpture isn't just some pretty colossus - it has a history, too. Here's DeGobbi's description of his crawler town:



Crawler town roams the barren wastes of a post steam-punk world after cataclysmic climate change do to excessive coal use. Several such cities exist but Crawler town is the most popular due to the Aero 500 hydrogen fuel cell Air races that are held. Many people travel the wastes to Crawler town for vacation and to enjoy rare luxuries like Pizza, fresh vegetables and Beer. Travelling the wastes in search of minerals and aquifers ( vital for survival) the mobility of the city keeps it away from the vicious sand storms of the wastes



Pizza? Beer? Air shows? The apocalypse can't come soon enough.
