Ohh, the [I]Apparatus and Hand. I think this was around the time when he was big on word play. I forget what this one means. Where did the carrot come from?

Sorry to be subjective, but it just seems undone. The center object (the main focus) is a good likeness, but I think it may benefit to take up more space like making it taller. Plus, it doesn't have that sense of your own design. It tends to try and mimic the work rather than be inspired by it. It just seems that with Maya, you can do alot more - like in his later works, for instance, when he started getting all nuclear and stuff. Especially when he did the hologram of Alice Cooper; this was much later though.
