Sculpture Art Feature: LOTR Meets Kitty Scratchpost

I wanted to show this amazing rendition of famous movie sets that have been used for something completely different, changing the meaning, perception, and appreciation of the original works because of this new creative art piece.

Above is a replica of Bag End, the famous hobbit hole from the Lord of the Rings trilogy, and the tower of Sauron with a catnip-eye of Sauron on top.  These replicas were specifically designed for cats to play with, the hobbit hole serving as a hideaway/litter-box holder, and the tower as a legitimately intricate scratching post.  These items were undoubtedly built with the help of computers, printers, paint, various materials, and references to the real sets from the movie.  The tower's shape was designed with foam, which was then wrapped in a tremendous amount of rope that was painted black.  I think this would be a really interesting project to learn how to do.
