Artist makes amazing figures using only empty drinks cans!





I saw this online this morning when I was on The Sun website having a quick look at the latest gossip and I HAD to create a blog about it straight away.

All of the above were made out of recycled drinks cans by a Japanese artist Macaon Painstakingly.

 I especially love how he has re-created four of my favourite characters, Buzz, Woody, Pikachu and Mario.

~ ~ ~ ~ ~

Anyone know what this little icon is called " ~ "?

Well I didn't until literally a few minutes ago. It's called a "tilde".

I don't know how this is pronounced, is it said like chilled but replace the "ch" with a "t" so it is said out aloud as "tilled"?

Or...

"Til-dee" so "till" then "dee"?

Then again it could even be like...

"Til-deh" so it would  be said as "till" "there" but replacing "th" in the word there with a "d" tilldere?

Or even...

"til-day" so "till" then "day"?

Haha all the different possibilities I have just come up with.

If anyone knows the correct way of pronouncing it, please let me know?
