Today's update comes courtesy of Derwin, from our forums. He has created what may be the world's tiniest tribute to Sam & Max. An impressive achievement, no?
"I work in a microfabrication facility at my university, and I decided to make what I believe is the worlds smallest (as of now) tribute to Sam and Max. For a sense of scale, the average width of a human hair is supposedly 80 microns (thanks Wikipedia!)... while the Max head seen in the attached picture is 50 microns tall by 45 microns wide. The image was taken under the 50x setting on the microscope we have in the lab. I could have potentially made them smaller, but I felt that Max's nose was already pushing it at somewhere around 2-4 microns tall."
:O!!! That's something that is just made of awesome. Nice going, Derwin.
(Loving the 'Live from Comic-Con' stuff at the side, guys)

Really awesome.
Time for the biggest tribute!
How about Max ears jutting out of Russia and Canada, making the Earth look like one giant Max head?

Thanks for the comments, guys. And tabacco, great job with the small thumbnail... if I had been drinking milk it would currently be coming out of my nose.

Somebody's got too much time on their hands.

SAM: "IMPRESSIVE....in a very tiny way...just think,this things the size of a poster to a flea"
MAX: "I hear the goverment is going to use this logo on the new line of tracking devices they are planting in our skulls!"
