And then I just have a one and a one a or one B it's sort of variations on that interpretation because it's still about the story.

And so from there, just the technical parts of it, you know, you go in there, do sketches, uh, we'll do a 3d model where now we're getting into physical models that then we'll 3d scan.

And then, um, we'll blow it up to, um,

to figure out one-to-one scale and do sort of a test of a certain part of it.

But the key is, is really engineering.

That's where the, um, the word is like, you can't just go help and put up a, you know, a 10, 28 story piece without understanding wind loads or earthquakes or anything related to that.

Um, so, you know, I had to get a team together that understands literally, it's almost like building a building, but in a form of a figure or another form, um, that's not occupied.

And now we're looking at things that are being occupied, but.

It's really working with a good team that understands two things.

One of how to, um, make sure it doesn't fall, make sure how it doesn't, how to make it and then how to assemble it and put it together.

So, um,

The secret is it's funny because I sort of live in this eight by eight by 40 foot box, which is the size of a shipping container.

So a lot of the parts and pieces have to figure out where those go because some ways you kind of control where the seam lines are if you don't sort of polish and weld them out.

But, you know, the assembly of, obviously you can't just take a 28 foot sculpture and just like Gulliver's Travelers and have it come down the highway, right?

So it's building it in pieces and parts and assembling it together.

And at the end of the day, it's just trusting that team and working with that team that understands construction as well to make something that will be there for centuries to come.

Well, it's interesting.

I kind of rewind.

Someone says there's a Filipino story before I got to create the largest icon in our country.

You know, growing up in the U.S., I actually hated being Filipino.
