What better way to honor the science-loving anti-hero of "Breaking Bad" than a super-nerdy portrait made entirely out of Legos?
Andy Bauch, a Los Angeles-based software programmer by day, describes himself as an "artist/lego pusher" on his site HippoBricks.com and has been making lego wall art since 2010. In homage to Walter White's "Heisenberg" alterego, Bauch put together a 2,000-piece Lego portrait in the style of Shepard Fairey's "Hope" posters for the Obama campaign.
He captured the construction of the "Breaking Bad"-inspired piece, titled "The One Who Knocks," in a time-lapse video that went live on the day of the series finale.
The video (above) shows a cross-legged and shoeless Bauch putting together the "Breaking Bad"-inspired piece with the help of an assistant. The show's theme music plays over the timelapse.
