Pentacopter

I like to think of this sculpture as one of Leonardo DaVinci’s rejected ideas. Conceived after a night of drinking, the master thought better of the design, and tore the page from his notebook in disgust. Centuries later the page was discovered behind a bookcase and brought to life by a mediocre artist.
