Artist Sculpts Star Wars' Millennium Falcon Out of Sand

Watch this mesmerizing time-lapse of Italian sand artist Leonardo Ugolini sculpting a miniature Millennium Falcon out of sand. 

The video, first posted to TikTok (and then a longer version to YouTube), showed Ugolini carefully use a spatula to build the body of the Millennium Falcon on top of a plywood cut to the contour of the Star Wars starship. Then, he used various tools to add features such as the sensor dish and ship's surface details.

Ugolini sprayed a mixture of water and glue using a nebulizer to create a transparent film that cover the spacecraft and keep its shape. This, and the use of the plywood base, allowed the artist to move the sculpture back to his studio.
