Most people would consider hubcaps to be junk. The side of the road and numerous junkyards are littered with them. One man, however, found a brilliant way to use this “junk” and transform it into incredible works of art.

He goes by Hubcap Creatures on Deviant Art, but he also has a website and Facebook page. The most incredible thing about his sculptures is that once they are finished, you can barely tell what materials he used to make the metallic, intricate creations. Just have a look for yourself.

Hubcap Creatures has been working as a professional sculptor since 2001.
