Yeah well, I got bored, and decided to do something completely different. Why a pgi and why a pig with wings? Don't ask me.

Daily Deviation

Given 2005-03-01
When Pigs Fly by ~mysticalis is an absolutely fantastic sculpture, and an amusing interpretation of the old saying. ( Featured by `twosilverstars )

Thats very cool. I love the detail and texture, simply is amazing. I also find it funny he's in the "bind pose" of 3d animation.

Why pig's on th wing? I'm going to guess it's one of Water's cycles. Pig's bring oppression, dogs kill under oath, the sheep find out th government sucks, revolution! and the process starts over again. The two songs probably just speak of a happy ending, yet a new pig is brought into higher office, and until they find out that their system of government sucks, the cycle will continue.

It may also have something to do with the phrase "when pig's fly"

This is a wonderful piece that represents a line heard all too often in our house and the previous generations. When asking when something will happen or when one might be old enough to do something the answer has been "when pigs fly". His wee suit is very handsome and I like this much better than the china pig that hangs on my wall with its stiff china wings. Great job!

Thanks a bunch. I loved this piece as well. I was able to call in a lot of favors, you know, those people who said "I'll lend you some money when pigs fly". :giggle:

Honestly...?!!? Wow.
Again, I can't stress this enough: This is by far my most favourited favourite at least until the cows come home and/or pig's fly. :-)

You have some very nice pieces in your gallery. There's something about "pigs with wings"...like waiting for a miracle.
