toe Posted October 20, 2007 Posted October 20, 2007 Greetings! I just stumbled upon this site via the St. Louis Yahoo Lego club's emails. Although i am just a lurker, i do appreciate the lego banter. My daughter and i have been actively buying and building for about 2-3 years. w/ the inspiration of all of you enthusiasts, we have been inspired to create a rather large layout. I personally enjoy creating landscapes but always look through brickshelf and brickwiki trying to learn about all of the SNOT techniques and other 'advanced' techniques. toe out! Quote

Shadows Posted October 20, 2007 Posted October 20, 2007 Welcome toe EB! Is "The Titanic sails at dawn" a Bob Dylan reference? Pure landscapes or part of a theme display, like a huge English countryside with a castle? Be sure to look around, you'll find more SNOTs on here than you can possibly imagine, and that's just some of us X-D Quote

Hinckley Posted October 20, 2007 Posted October 20, 2007 Hey Toe! I just realized you are from Southern IL. Whereabouts, literally Southern-like Carbondale? I am up in Chicago... Quote

Norro Posted October 20, 2007 Posted October 20, 2007 Aha! I was born in Calumet City... So that's why it's said to be cursed... X-D God Bless, Nathan Quote
Hinckley Posted October 21, 2007 Posted October 21, 2007 So that's why it's said to be cursed... X-D God Bless, Nathan Yes, but it is no longer cursed today...it was swallowed by a sink hole. :-$ Quote

andy_0306uk Posted October 22, 2007 Posted October 22, 2007 Welcome to Eurobricks Toe + daughter Quote
toe Posted October 23, 2007 Author Posted October 23, 2007 (edited) Thanks folks! This forum is great. I've been a member of the Yo Joe boards since it was basically started. I haven't visited there in a couple of months, but it's nice to have a forum to check on again. I sell GI Joes on eBay (eBay handle = toemasii) so it's been tough trying to divide my time between Joes, family, and building. Nonetheless, I'm going to have to grow some nads about posting my lay-out. While we spent hours and hours building, tearing down, and building, I do have to admit that my inspiration came from you guys on Brickshelf and MOC pages... Not that i ripped stuff off, just started w/ an idea and went from there. I hope as my building experience expands, i can be more original w/ my MOCs. On this note, would anyone recommend that 'Unofficial" lego guide (The book)? I just found Brick Journal too and am really excited about getting a hard copy of it. Peace! tom Edited October 23, 2007 by toe Quote
