- We’ll have no clue what the builders called it, 5,000 years ago Stanenges is a Saxon word, 1,500 years old.
- It’s vuggy, man! Sweats, really hard, also weak and flawed. With embedded sticks, twigs, branches. Quartz veins. They’re alive.

Production notes
- Digital fingerprint
- 3D printing to cold casting
- Stonehenge models – a byproduct
- Whole Stonehenge?
- The artist Steve Hooker
- Those layer lines give a unique, copyrightable pattern on each face of each stone.
- From 3D printing at an insane 5µ layer height to cold casting and making the patinas.
- I painted myself into a Shropshire corner. So I thought I’d do pictures of Stonehenge… Everybody knows where that is…
- Released in parts beginning with Trilithon Two, then T4, T1…
  
  And we’re really going to have fun with the baseplates and all the other add-ons that will become available.
- From selling pictures of witches, fairies, ghosts and giants… Famous throughout Shropshire.

The polished faces on the inside of Trilithon Two. 'Skinny' on the left, Stone 53 has the line of 18th Century graffiti at eyeline height, below which and central are the easily seen dagger and axe and running diagonally are the quartz veins. Who knows if the flaws in the vuggy sarsen stone were present in some way when the builders erected the stones.

Prototype pix – rusted

The rusted patina of these models brings out the details of the working lines carved with stone mauls as well as the rotting holes caused by millennia of rain.

Fingers for scale. 76th scale Trilithon Two, Stonehenge.

The large 'T' on the bottom left of the picture on 'fatty' Stone 54 are working lines - they're around 6 foot off the ground. Between them, running near horizontally are finer parallel working lines around 6 inches apart. On 'skinny' the thinner Stone 53, in the centre, is a vertical rib, another working line, hammered with stone mauls. — The large ‘T’ on the bottom left of the picture on ‘fatty’ Stone 54 are working lines – they’re around 6 foot off the ground.
