You know, for people with very small fingers...

As the diminutive Japanese building system nanoblock gains traction here in the US, with new sets appearing in stores on a regular basis, more ambitious original creations are starting to emerge from more 'wizened' fans in the Far East.

First up is higeko_dx, a graphic designer from Tokyo, who's choice of subject matter reveals her dark sense of humor (...check out her Crab Prince, Child's Play and Little Man Piss, if you dare!).

Jackass	2-Headed Deer
Daft Punk	Hand

Meanwhile Christopher Tan from Malaysia has been churning out a ton of amazing character-based models recently. Here is but a tiny sample of his collection, which also includes R2-D2, Shawn the Sheep, Wall-E and Batman.

Panda	Darth Vader

In some ways it seems nanoblock's basic palette of brick types actually lends itself well towards character-based creations, which I love because that's what I'm all about. I just wish my fingers were small enough to emulate this kind of work!
