Tony Hawk à la wax

• I really don't get the point of waxworks. Anytime I go passed Madame Tussauds in London the queues are always round the block. What exactly is the attraction?

• It's just another incarnation of mindless celebrity worship

• Dan: I enjoy wax sculpture because it looks incredibly realistic when it's done right... wax has a certain translucent quality that skin has, plus with the proper mix of hair, clothes, and props, a piece could be considered a mixed media installation.
  Generally, it's just fun to see how close the sculptors can get to the real thing. Cheers.
