Thomas Allen: 3D Art from Book Covers

You know how I feel about defacing books and that includes book covers, but I couldn't help but provide a link to this amazing artist who does 3D Art from Book Covers.  

Thomas Allen creates very unusual three-dimensional art by cutting out characters from old pulp fiction book covers and positioning them into action scenes. His wonderful art was inspired by classic pop-up books.

I looked at the artist page and saw the other images. Very imaginative. The idea of destroying a book still makes me queasy, but the lurid paintings on the covers almost ask to be made into something else.
