Did notice the weird arm angle, tho… how u do dat?!?
What was the inspiration?
I built this for an online contest: https://www.flickr.com/photos/klubkockice/albums/72157663416762041. One of the categories was Ancient Civilization. Druids were one of my ideas for a civilization you rarely see in LEGO.
This build was also an inspiration: https://www.flickr.com/photos/legols/8253915231/in/dateposted/
Also, once you’ve built something like this, what happens to it?
It sits on my shelf till I need the parts, usually.
I just noticed your Flickr stream a few weeks ago. Pretty cool to hear you are in the area. Welcome to the club.
Back on topic: the clown’s hair seems cool until you realize those parts were hair to begin with… then it becomes marginally less cool, but still pretty cool, but definitely not as cool as the eyebrows. I think the mushroom bowtie is actually my second favorite bit… only Aaron would think to put ‘shrooms on a hot dog! (have you tried that in real life, @finntegotash?)
Naw, I’m more adventurous with my bricks than my food.
‘Cept maybe at Suzies, but I didn’t see mushrooms there…
Also – do we have a Q4 meeting in the works at which we’ll have this contest?
Srsly, any news on this?
I love everything about this, including the seagull eyebrows…
…except they said you lived near Pittsburg (presumably Oklahoma). What’s up with that?
I contacted them about this and its corrected now.
That’s great, I love the clown! I have no idea how you thought of using the seagull to make eyebrows.
Thank you Greg
For a week or so now, I’ve been thinking we should give someone a bonus cup credit if they get blogged by brothers brick or some other main site and get a link/mention to steel city lug. This will help support the goal of getting global recognition to steel city lug that I mentioned at Q3. Way to force my hand to a decision. Well done. +1 cup.
Good timing Josh
Does anyone know what they’re bringing yet? Tim had some good ideas but most of the people he mentioned won’t be there.
I think we ought to start planning another space meet-up.
Are there any plans in the works still for trading meet-ups?
I was thinking that since this is our first time there, we should approach this similar to the Girl Scout event. No coordinated display; just bring whatever you want. It would be neat to have various themes represented, for example: Town (me, Greg, Ben); Space (Evan, Dan, Dan), Modified sets (Nick with the Star Wars carousel; Modulars/modular compatible (Joe, Josh with the Whipped Café); Microscale (Micah, Aaron); Trains (Laura); etc. It does not have to be a huge amount of stuff, just a variety and good quality.
Easy and interesting display. Sounds like a good plan.
really? wtf. so they’re going out…just not to me…? SELF DESTRUCTIVENESS!
I haven’t been getting them either for a few days.
Cheers Matt!
[Okay, technically I didn’t get a pic of Aaron’s rockin’ GARC but that’s just because he packed it up so early…]
I just assumed after Greg’s judging everyone had gotten to see the builds as much as they wanted too. 😉
Well, I didn’t bring a camera to the meeting so I didn’t get photos of all the builds but you can view my entry here: https://www.flickr.com/photos/126930055@N04/20846297875/in/dateposted-public/
I will arrive around 8:30 tomorrow morning to set up my space sets and anything else that still needs to be set up.
I’ll try to at least send that stuff so there’s some train-related space to go with your stuff, Aaron.
That would be great. I think my display will be 64×64 if that helps you.
