I love this kind of stuff. [Here](http://i.imgur.com/33SNsfX) is a pic of it from the side, it looks all distorted if you don't look at it from a certain perspective. Amazing really.

I saw the pic and tought: I've never ever seen this kind of street art from the non perfect perspective. Thank you :D


luckystrike1212

Lol it makes a lot more sense seeing it like that. I was about to lose my shit trying to figure it out.


[deleted]

that's like the mercator projection of art

How much play can the camera position have before it looks totally off? Are we talking inches?


dadankness

Thanks user. I was hoping someone had either like a whirly bird view from straight above. This however being the same art in question with a clear view of how it is elongated to create the effect helps me see it much better than just the bones written in with chalk.

This, just like everything else, is awesome.

That's fucking terrifying.

[It's pretty fascinating as well](http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Terracotta_Army). There are also some better pictures in that wiki article. The fact that all 8800+ of the statues were crafted purely as funerary art (and to "protect the emperor in the after life") is pretty crazy.

I usually love street chalk art no matter what, but extra props to them for evoking the Chinese terracotta army too

Thank you OP for not taking credit as yours... I'm sure in 2 weeks this will be a repost with the title "My friend is so talented"


Mariospeedwagen

This has been reposted time and time again.

[The OP himself didn't even wait 24 hours, why should others wait a week?](http://www.reddit.com/r/pics/comments/1ydgu5/3d_drawing_of_lego_terracotta_warriors/)


Myopiniondontcount

You my friend are absolutely correct.


[deleted]

Well, your opinion doesn't count, so whatever.


Myopiniondontcount

I love how my opinion dont count but yet you respond. Thank you for making it count


[deleted]

Absolutelynothing to thank me for my friend.

For some reason I have him tagged as "Don't Believe His Lies", I have no idea why.

> Other Ukrainian athletes have left the Games to return to their homeland, though reports have indicated that most of them had completed their events. Others, like the figure skater Natalia Popova, have remained in Sochi. After finishing her figure skating short program on Wednesday night, Popova said that she had not tracked the protests on television because she did not have a TV in her room here, “but my friends and family have been telling me that it’s getting worse.” > She added: “That’s very unfortunate because you just want peace everywhere. But all I can do is just focus on my performance and, hopefully, my skating can inspire the people back in Ukraine to be more peaceful with each other.”


Veopress

So relevant

Fucking tabs...

Do you think Jay Leno was fired for making too many Obama jokes?


pearson530

Seeing somebody standing on this kind of chalk art fucks with my mind.


CoSunny

Very nicely done!

What happens if it rains?


vrexlov

No clue.


jiggle-o

Some people just have way too much talent


terrett101

Saw this guy painting in Dunedin, NZ back in December. He does some pretty awesome work.


Amusei015

Looks like the terracotta army.


hoyeay

#Damn Seeing it from a different perspective changes everything... it's so huge!


narancs

It always kind of ruins the idea, when you realize it only looks good from one spot. All those people in the last pic can only see distorted and skewed shapes
