A LEGO statue of retired Boston Red Sox player David Ortiz was unveiled at Fenway Park in August 2016 on LEGO day. Is made from 34,510 bricks, weighs 170 pounds and took 290 hours to make.
Artist Erik Varszegi revealed how painstaking it was to get all the details right: “Actually, the hardest part was getting his tattoos just right. I couldn’t get a lot of visual reference on that. His left arm has a whole bunch of tats. I had a couple pictures of it; then I saw some stuff online from a video game. There was a 3D map of his skin texture, so I was able to utilize part of that.”
