Gazza, Beckham, Lineker, Shearer and Rooney ~(Picture: Dave)

The faces of Gary Lineker, Paul Gascoigne, David Beckham, Alan Shearer and current England star Wayne Rooney have been skilfully carved into bite-sized artwork in the run-up to the World Cup.

Micro-artist, Quentin Devine, has carved portraits of England footie heroes out of Brazil Nuts to launch a new Dave new series ahead of this summer’s tournament in Brazil.

Each Brazil nut, measuring an average of 1.5 by 2 centimetres, took on average a painstaking 96 hours to carve with Quentin working day and night to perfect Rooney’s hairline, the raw emotion of Gazza and Beckham’s dashing good looks.

The artist worked his way through 53 nuts before finally cracking the finished portraits and spent the most time finessing Gary Lineker’s oversized ears.




England’s Top 19 Footy Heroes, England’s Top 53 Footy Goals and England’s Top 39 Footy Gaffes is coming to Dave from Tuesday 20th May at 9pm.
