I love this birds. Supported!

wow! your biggest for sure! the sculpting is impressive!

Hello Tom! Not only am I going to support your LEGO Birds series right now, but I'm going to post a link to my new LEGO bird, Blu from Rio (2011). http://www.mocpages.com/moc.php/351701

Oh wow man, you have really blown up since the mocathalon last year

I missed this one while I was in Japan. Very lovely and well colored. The tail design in pretty clever.

I love it. Simple and old fashioned bricks for a neat creation. Thanks!!!

Wonderful!

Wow, so Martha Stewart actually saw your LEGO bird collection and asked you to do a special commission LEGO build for her, Detomaso? (It's also fitting that your name ends up being Tom as well, which makes this build all the more ironic.) That's an awesome turkey build by the way and who knew that you were also into bird watching and bird art? I hope that you have fun in Colombia. (By the way, the women there are kind of beautiful, too.) I think that I'll have a turkey sandwich now and have it on some whole wheat bread with some Provolone cheese.

Looks like I'm a tad late here, but better late than never. ;) Amazing work, likely my favourite of your series. The tail in particular is phenomenal.

Nice to see Tommy out and about:) Beautiful bird!

Man, your birds only get better with time! I especially like the face on this guy...incredibly realistic! Keep up the good work, and here's to hoping you reach that 10,000 supporter mark!

Simply incredible!

I like those tail feathers!

Wow, that's awesome! I really like your birds, even if I haven't written many comments on them. This one is a real masterpiece, especially the tail. Great job! :-)) P.S.: Congratulations on the #1 in "Across MOCpages"! :-))

awesome! great job and the pictures are very good

awesome! great job and the pictures are very good

Great looking bird! Amazing building techniques, too. :-)

Really awesome! I think its my favorite bird that u have made!

Brilliant Tommy ;). Hope you are enjoying your holiday :D

Now you can build the rest of the farm... Good luck for the cow!! lol Excellent work here, very realistic and accurage. A lot of work well done. I'm really keen on this one.

That's some work, my friend. As accurate as can be! I'd be proud to have one of these if I was to have a turkey farm, just to mess with their little minds :))

awesome 5/5 DH

ravishingly beautiful!

Looks great! A lot bigger then I thought at first. It does't bully your other birds does it?

Thanks giving will never be the same. It would be rather crunchy. Well designed. This is wonderful to see. I can say I have never seen a Lego Turkey before. Just love your style. Keep them coming.

Wonderful Turkey! Happy Thanksgiving! Blogged on BrickEnd: http://brickend.blogspot.com/2012/11/happy-thanksgivingtommy-turkey-by.html

Nicely done!

Congrats on the press! A well deserved feature for sure. Love the tail feathers!

Really good job! Happy Thanksgiving, everyone!

At first glance I had thought this was done by Schifio, but it's really cool how this was commissioned by Martha Stewart!

That is called SKILL.

Happy Thanksgiving my friend! Your turkey is absolute awesome!! Brilliant work.

Awesome!

AMAZING

Perfect!

Excellent!

Nice!

wow.fantastic detail on the body and tail

Great work! The tail is incredible!

DUUUUDE! Nuff said. Z

Complimentary second like given the awesomeness factor. =D

An impressive chap !>.....well done

A-maz-ing!

Thats one turkey that I wont eat :)

I love how you changed from you normal birds, and made a larger bird! excellent design!

happy thanksgiving to all our American MOCcists! .. great build too! Gobble Gobble!watch out for those black Friday sales!

Lovely. He's so lifelike! Surely another favourite.

Tommy's ready to get deep-fried! XD . Great build!

Perfect!

Thanks dude! Happy TG'ing!

Haha speacheless Chinchillas ;-) Thanks SC!

Thanks for your continuous support Matthew ;-)

Woah!

Excellent. I love how "dense" the model is. Not many gaps showing.

Gobble Gobble and HAPPY THANKSGIVING I'll take some breast meat and do not forget the gravy! Well cone!

Wow! That's a wonderful bird! I just checked out your page, I didn't think you had built so much of these!! The turkey is one of my favourites, the tail is just perfect. Well done, and I hope your birds appeal to even more people!

Excellent Tommy! I like the feathers very much :D Well done masterpiece as always :-)

Fantastic feathers!

Actually he's been sitting around as a secret for about four months now lol

Fantastic! Though I personally prefer the Toucans, this is still one of your best! Its amazing how much different all your birds are, this being one of the huge and detailed birds, as a pose to the small and perfectly formed ones ;) Great work, and I also love the outdoor photos.

Ohh, now THIS is definitely my favorite of your birds so far! Very fitting for the time of year too! Incredible shaping and design. You've mastered the Lego bird. Well done and I look forward to eatin...seeing more. Yeah.

Gobble Gobble. This is so cool looking.

Aha! The one that got away! Both in terms of missing being eaten at Thanksgiving and also I had been wondering if you were going to add a turkey to the collection of American birds. I really like this build and think that it feels different to many of the other birds in this series. The Lego sphere type body and big, fan tail look wonderful, as does the head with its beady, staring turkey eyes. I agree with other people who've commented that this is the best yet, thought the Toucans (big & small) are very cute. I hope that the magazine mentioned your Cuusoo project!

Working on a larger scale bird really gives you the opportunity to show off the skills you've mastered over the last 6 months or so. The best yet!

I showed a picture of Tommy to the wild Turkey hens and their youngsters that come around my property and the ladies all swooned! He's a L@@Ker! :)

Very nice! Shame he will get hacked up for Christmas dinner soon.

This is probably one of your best birds. The whole thing is spectacular, from the striped tale to the mottled body. As the Senator said below, I have been left speechless by a turkey. And we Americans will enjoy thanksgiving dinner very much. :)

I've just been left speechless...by a turkey. I'm not quite sure what to make of that. It's a brilliant turkey, this. All the checkerboard patterning and the adorably hideous face, and those feet. Properly turkey stuff.

This is amazing! Easily my absolute favorite bird from you! The peppered body is wonderful! I love the rounded tail, but the head just puts it over the top! The amount of detail on his face is stunning!

Haha thanks Chris, you're very kind! I gobble that like up :-)

Cheers LB! He's one of my favourites too. He's packed away in a box now to keep the dust off him. Might let him out for Christmas lol

Cheers Barto! I must catch up on you BSG series, sorry I've been soooo busy recently ;-)

Cheers Mark! I'd hate to see and smell the result of this being put in the fryer. Just imagine the melted mess ;-)

Cheers Nick! He's a deceptive looking creature :-)

Excellent and timely work!

PS My stomach is sounding like a volcano now! And it's all your fault! Haha

Well it's about time you posted it! Haha but seriously, this is easily my favorite large bird from you so far. As with all your other birds, the shaping is superb throughout. I'm really happy for you, I hope you'll reach 10k soon. I knew you'd be able to take good enough pictures so that they wouldn't have to send their photographer over. ;-) Well done. -LB Jr.

Excellent rendition-good enough to eat! Congrats on the article, too!

Cheers Stuart! It's quite mind boggling how much attention I've been getting from these birds. I just hope it keeps coming, I'm loving it :-)

Thanks dude. I will be making a Mallard soon :)

Haha, excellent build!

Ha! Terrific work. Love the fanned out tail. Now pluck that bad boy and pop him in the fryer!

Haha this one's for show, not for shooting or eating ;-) Happy Thanksgiving!

Great work. Happy Thanksgiving everyone!

It's strange that it doesn't look as big here as I know it is... Awesome work, of course. Have fun in Columbia :-)

Thanks Iain! CUUSOO is great isn't it :-)

Brilliant model, lovely use of shape and colour, and glad to hear your bird series is attracting success and attention from all over the world! Great stuff, keep them coming.

Cheers Apester! They are very aptly called "Waddles" but like you I have no idea what they are for. Yes Martha payed for this trip in a round-about-way ;-)

Wow! He's so awesome! Can you make a mallard next!?

Excellent. It's through your work that I found the CUUSOO website and the works on there are mind boggling. Best of luck with the project. Bird is the Word.

Get the gun! I see a nice turkey! Haha just kidding Beautiful bird. I love his little feet things. Really really coll bird. P.S. This wouldn't be big enough to feed everyone at my Thanksgiving. Happy Thanksgiving! =)

Thanks Larry! Glad you like Tommy :-)

Best one yet! I love his floppy red bit (whatever it's called) - I have absolutely no idea what it does but it looks funny : ) Columbia?! Did Martha pay for that trip (in a round about way)? Have an awesome time! Oh, 5 stars of course.

Thanks Jon! Hope all is well in your world!

Just in time for Thanksgiving! Haha, I reallly love this creation, it's one of my favorites in your Bird Series. I also like how you managed to get the shape just right, even by only using simple bricks. Looks great from all angles :)

Magnificent! So glad you're still making these beauties, and they're getting the recognition they deserve. I have some catching up to do, you've been busy!
