Based in Istanbul, Turkish artist Selçuk Yilmaz (featured previously) hand cuts and hammers every piece of metal used in this incredible, larger-than-life lion sculpture.

The artist has become well-known for his steel sculptures and you can find many more projects on Behance and Instagram.

As you can see in the photo above, Yilmaz’s latest sculpture, entitled Kali, is quite a bit larger than himself!
