Details: Every once in a while, you'll see someone put together a whimsical "still life" out of LEGO. Usually it's just a light sculpture, but sometimes you'll see a mosaic thrown in like you do here. The utensils here really help to make the scene - not to mention how realistic the can appears (complete with that mosaic on the front to make it distinctively a SPAM can). The use of cheese slopes and studs-not-on-top trickery really makes the letters on the can pop. More great techniques can be seen on the wine glass - one chunk is upside-down, another entirely sideways.
