“Legend of Iron” Altmetall-Transformer Armee

Die Metall-Kunstwerke von Yang Junlin hatte ich häufiger schon mal gesehen, allerdings halt immer nur einzelne Objekte, weswegen ich auch nie den Anlass sah darüber mal zu schreiben. Jetzt stellt sich aber heraus das Herr Junlin, seit 5 Jahren zusammen mit 10 Mitarbeiten nichts anderes macht als Altmetall-Transformer aus gebrauchten Auto- und Motorradteilen zu fertigen, sodass er bereits eine Armee von 1000 Mecha-Bots auf seiner Liste hat. What The Fuck?

In 2006, after retiring from the army, Yang went to a concert where various steel sculptures were placed on display. Some of them were simple human figures created from twisted metal wire, but they made such an impression on him, that he decided to try and make his own steel works.A year later, Yang Junlin opened his own factory, Legend of Iron, and hired over 10 workers to help him realize his dream of building cool robot sculptures. They use all kinds of scrap metal, from old car parts to simple sheets of steel andcreate some of the most amazing looking Transformers replicas I’ve ever seen. Although he admits his work is quite time-consuming, Yang has built over 1,000 iron sculptures since he opened Legend of Iron, five years ago, and isn’t planning on stopping anytime soon. (via)
