tatertots Posted December 31, 2012 (edited) Based on the clock tower in Wellesley, MA this was about falling in love when it's winter time; winter sleigh rides, teenagers having a snowball fight, good times when the fluffy white stuff is out. Happy new year everyone! The sleigh was self-imposed build challenge. I was determined to use those gold pearl sword blades from a Ninjago set to make some sleigh rails. Connection is solid and the angles feel right. The 90 degree angles seemed to rigid. And the cast of characters: boy in love and his dog, girl tossing a snow ball, female tourist, sleigh master: I'll get it into the layout for next year :-) Edited January 18, 2013 by tatertots Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Priovit70 Posted January 19, 2013 Nice creation, tatertots! I really love the design of the tower's door and the original use of the blades for the sleigh! (and I really enjoy your layout!) Good luck in the contest!! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Hey Joe Posted January 19, 2013 (edited) That's a really sweet-looking layout and I love the tower. It looks like Santa has really upgraded from his old sleigh and reindeer! I guess with the population being what it is these days it was tough for him to get around! I'm also really digging that little red tractor thing, well done.
