When working with recycled materials like metal, it is a true art to be able to create steampunk animal sculptures with moving parts. Russian artist, Igor Verniy, creates jaw dropping recycled steampunk animal sculptures which actually contain moving parts. All of his works feature an impressive amount of detail and look very realistic.

Featuring beautiful sculptured animals like Birds, spiders, bugs, bats, and even robots, Igor has the skills of turning them into moving magical works of art. Before he can even begin to build them, there is a lot of work goes into planning and finding the right materials.

Assembling them from scrap metal takes time, he goes on the search for bike parts, car parts, clock movements, tableware and any other recycled metal which fits his ideas.
