Portal Companion Cube care package.

This was a triumph!
All in all, there's roughly 13,000 beads and took around 15-20 hours on/off to assemble. It includes one trusty companion cube, a coupon for one free cake (redeemable at Aperture Laboratories), a Companion Cube coaster, and an Aperture Science mug(http://www.thinkgeek.com/homeoffice/mugs/c7cc/) not pictured.
I'm not too happy with how the corners turned out but I'm pretty confident I'd be able to assemble it a whole lot better a second time around (that's if I'm willing to torture myself once more.)
Many thanks to this guy for the original idea (check out his other work too, it's pretty awesome):
