Brutal!: The Nine Circles Of Hell Recreated In LEGO

What better way to celebrate the demonic released Diablo 3 than with these LEGO recreations of the nine circles of hell by sculptor Mihai Mihu? "I dunno, maybe chugging Redbull and vodkas and actually PLAYING the game while blasting heavy metal?" You know what? You're alright in my book. In another lifetime you and I might have even become friends, but in this lifetime I was born so ugly I can turn people to stone (well, cat turds) so my parents keep me locked away in the basement where my only friend is a loose brick. He says he's gonna bash my brains out. These are the nine circles of hell (limbo, lust, gluttony, greed, anger, heresy, violence, fraud and treachery) from Dante's Inferno. From the looks of things, I do NOT want to go to hell. Or heaven for that matter. Basically I'm afraid of dying. "You do know all dinos went to heaven, right?" *fills bath, tapes toaster to chest* I'm coming, Lord!

Hit the jump for a shots of all nine, but be sure to check out Mihai's Flickr page for detailed shots of each.

    This is 'Breakfast Time', a series of digital paintings by artist Guillermo Fajardo featuring lifelike versions of cereal mascots. This is Cap'n 'Come Sit On My Lap' Crunch here, but there's Tony the Tiger, the Trix Rabbit and Count Chocula after the jump. Admittedly, Guiller... / Continue →

    This is a video of a manhole in New York City shooting sparks and flames like the Ninja Turtles decided their swords and sticks were too oldschool and upgraded to flamethrowers and lightning-launchers. It sounds like somebody popping popcorn though, so I wouldn't be surprised ... / Continue →

    This is Monster Chess, a 12' x 12' (that's feet, not inches) robotic LEGO chess game made with over 100,000 blocks for a total build cost of ~$30K (that's thousands, not kelvin). The pieces are all controlled via laptop and I wouldn't hesitate to body-slam a rook if it got out... / Continue →

  • These look great.

  • Wheres Asmodeus?

  • if they made a Dante's Inferno Lego video game like they did with Star Wars, and Indiana Jones....i think I'd have to do some apartment searching in the seventh ring 

  • Why is Lust censored? Boo!

  • $18922249

    Fraud... that is an abstract Lego diorama idea.

  • Treachery should show Lucifer perpetually chewing on Judas and Brutus.

    Anyway, it's outdated —they opened up a brand new circle just for trolls ;)

  • Chris Gillen

    I think Judas and Brutus are the statues next to the headless one. They are supposed to be in Lucifer's mouth, true, but at least they're in there.

  • It's nice to know they have coffee breaks in Hades ;)

  • My only criticism is that the guy with the funny face wasn't in all of the pictures you posted here where he is on the flickr website. It's like a where's waldo only more like "What the fuck has waldo gotten himself into this time?" Also lust should be uncensored.

    People and their Legos :) very cool
