In 2008, the Annual Sand Sculpture Festival was held on a Portuguese beach. It was open to the public in Pera on May 22. It is said to be that there is a total of 60 huge sculptures made by professional and amateur artists from around the globe. Last year the theme was 'Hollywood' this included superhero, action, scifi and non-fictional characters from all sorts of movies. The artists used more then 35,000 tons of sand to create these wonderful works of art.


The Introduction to the 2008 Annual Sand Sculpture Festival.

Now that is one person thing I WONT mess with.

Yellow Brick Road? The road don't look too yellow.

What time does the train leave? Quick don't miss it.

Replica of the famous Mount Rushmore. Pretty good.

When was this ever a happy family? Always mischievous.

Aww look at Baby Shrek.

A lot of people say he looks like Gordon Brown. It really does.

For all those Star wars lovers. See there is a place for everyone.

Just look at the detail. Wouldn't be surprised if it got up and flew away.

Batman looks pretty fat. His new name shall be Fatman.
Come on Dracula she already dead, let her rest in peace.

Pretty ugly car for a cool guy.

Do they really come in peace or are they here to take over?
