Ardabus Rubber's "LAIKA" custom Mega Munny
Ardabus Rubber completed a smokin hot HUGE mega Munny recently and sent over some pictures along with a little backstory. This was completed as a commission, and it's titled "Laika". I recently had the opportunity to see Ardabus' work in person during comic-con and it is amazing the tiny detailing he gets into these surreal pieces of art that he creates... which really reminds me alot of Dali's work! These pictures, I am sure don't do this giant piece justice and Ardabus actually completed a 16" x 20" companion canvas piece to accompany it! Sick work dude!
Here is "Laika's" backstory:
"1957... the space race is well underway... the battle for intergalactic supremacy took hold of the world like a plague. The first manned space flight was planned, but of course testing was required. Instead of using humans, the Russians found a homeless dog, named her "Laika" and sent her into space. She became the first animal to orbit the earth, and subsequently die in space. Her soul is stuck in the aether and materializes itself from time to time, and serves as a reminder to all explorers and adventurers: Christopher Columbus didn't send a dog to discover America..."
