I doubt Andy Warhol could have ever predicted that 1. paintball would be a popular, ahem, sport and 2. that a group of amateur artists could paint a rather accurate rendition of his famous Marilyn Monroe pop-art print with nothing but tiny balls of paint.

This thing is awesome. It must have taken a good amount of planning, not to mention accuracy and skill, to pull this off and actually make it look legitimate.

Created by Bon Yurt. Head over to their website to see another video that shows the planning process.
