oldflash Posted August 15, 2006 Posted August 15, 2006 Anyone have see something like this for real? http://www.greatervancouverparks.com/HARRISONSandCastles01.html Must be incredible.
JediKnight707 Posted August 15, 2006 Posted August 15, 2006 Damn.... And to think, I have a hard time making a castle
Mav Posted August 15, 2006 Posted August 15, 2006 um... wow... this one time we buried my friend in the sand and turned him into a mermaid.... thats about as creative as I can get with sand...
oldflash Posted August 15, 2006 Author Posted August 15, 2006 I wasn't able to do something with sand, not even a simple tower. I like all details and ideea on this one: http://www.greatervancouverparks.com/_MG_4702.jpg / http://www.greatervancouverparks.com/_MG_4671.jpg
Bob Lion54 Posted August 15, 2006 Posted August 15, 2006 Wow. Thats awsomeness and a half. Sad all that great work will be washed away at high tide...
Commander Obi-Wan Posted August 15, 2006 Posted August 15, 2006 That is truly incredible. Quite amazing that is. Funny. I was just there about a week ago, during my vacation. It's a nice place.
Hallucination Posted August 15, 2006 Posted August 15, 2006 Anyone have see something like this for real? Actually, I went there a year or two ago. It was pretty cool, and better than this year's (in my opinion anyway). They had a sand ziggurat and a 'When Hell freezes over' thing, a bunch of gremlins having snowball fights. And then the family and I went there this year's Father's Day. @Bob: It's beside a pond. Well, they say it's a lake, but it looks like a pond to me. Yeah it's awesome. Edit: Nice find coupes.
coupes. Posted August 15, 2006 Posted August 15, 2006 I remember seeying some really nice sand sculpture once, but nowhere near as goog as these... Also, I found this
Commander Obi-Wan Posted August 15, 2006 Posted August 15, 2006 Also, I found this Those are nice too. Great find. @Bob: It's beside a pond. Well, they say it's a lake, but it looks like a pond to me. Yeah. I looked like it was about 5 feet deep. But, the lake just nearby is quite large.
Pho3nix Posted August 15, 2006 Posted August 15, 2006 That's nice. They should have made a few Star Wars sculptures though The Millenium Falcon would be kinda cool.
Niner_777 Posted August 15, 2006 Posted August 15, 2006 I haven't seen anything like that. Though I have seen some pretty elaborate castles.
Mace MacLeod Posted August 16, 2006 Posted August 16, 2006 Oh yeah. Harrison's got an annual sandcastle-building competition. My second cousin is one of the managers at a Harrison hotel, and I usually tried to make it every year. Word of warning: hotspring baths are not recommended if your blood alcohol level is over .15. It's an experience you'll be unhappy to almost-kind-of remember.
Dagobahn Eagle Posted August 19, 2006 Posted August 19, 2006 I love the one with the dragon eating the little kid:rofl:!
The Doctor Posted August 19, 2006 Posted August 19, 2006 You should have seen the one in Ontario Place a few years ago. One guy made a model of the entire park.
Raven_Onasi Posted August 19, 2006 Posted August 19, 2006 Where I live they make sand sculptures right in the middle of our local mall!! If you go early enough you can watch how they do it, the secret is to mix Elmers Glue in with the sand and the water. It helps the sand stick together. It is a truely amazing talent.
Terran I Posted August 19, 2006 Posted August 19, 2006 That is something you don't see every day, WOW!
Sabretooth Posted August 20, 2006 Posted August 20, 2006 God that is so sweet. One of the finest works of art in the world, I'll say. This is beautiful and awesome. Everytime I try to make something, it just breaks down into an ugly mountain.
