New York designer Paul Sahre has brought his sleeve artwork for They Might Be Giants to life on a grand scale with a video featuring a gigantic pink paper hearse. And you can make your own

Sahre designed a series of sleeves and iTunes graphics for TMBG last year one of which featured said purple hearse. The band then asked him to recreate the monster vehicle for real for a video to promote their forthcoming tour.

Fans can download a PDF of the artwork here make their own – either a table-top version or the full 'life-size' 12 foot tall model – and post the results to YouTube.

Fortunately here in the UK we have lots of rain.

...We've got lots of miserable buggers too.

I Love this, and love TMBG. I shall make a desktop one forthwith.
