The LEGO Halo sniper rifle may be the most awesome piece of LEGO art ever created. I say this as a gamer and lover of LEGO, so my view may be slightly skewed. Regardless, this toy brick rifle is an amazing work of fan art that has to be seen to be believed.
Nick Jensen is the man behind the LEGO Halo sniper rifle. The rifle is built to scale and is designed to look like the one used in the most recent Halo game titled 'Halo: Reach.' The rifle stands an impressive five and a half feet long and took Jensen four months to build. In addition to his LEGO Halo sniper rifle, Jensen has also created the pistol, assault rifle and combat knife from the game out of LEGO.
