Ptolemy Elrington has spent the last 12 years recycling old hubcabs into exquisite animal sculptures.

This isn't just some guy with too much time (and hubcaps) on his hands either, he's turned his hobby into a successful business, with his works of art fetching anything from a couple of hundred pounds to £10,000 each!
