BigDaddy Posted October 14, 2005 Posted October 14, 2005 Hello, everyone! My name is "Big Daddy" Nelson, and I am a new member of the forums. I am a regular at CC.com and at LUGNET (where I am the curator for the .vignette and .underground newsgroups.) I am also one of the creators of the infamous "Joe Vig". :) I have frequented Eurobricks many times in the past, and have found the information here (particularly of upcoming sets) to be invaluable! Thank you! My Gallery (on Brickshelf). Quote

BigDaddy Posted October 14, 2005 Author Posted October 14, 2005 Thanks for the welcome everyone!! It's Sir Nelson from CC right? Yep. :$ Were are your pirates creations ?????They are coming soon! :) Since you are one of the "creators of the infamous Joe Vig", can you tell us the story behind please ? Okay, you asked for it.... :oD Late one night on a classic-castle.com chat, myself and several others came up with an idea to make a simple minifig: We were going to each build this fig (named "Joe Food") and photograph him at various local eateries/restaurants and post the photos on the internet to show how the fig really got around... Well, one thing led to another, and Joe became the idea for a character to use in vignette MOCS on LUGNET. The name was changed from Joe Food to Joe Vig, with no intentional references (or slights) to the new LEGO company CEO, Jorgen Vig. That's pretty much it in a nutshell. We just wanted to make a relatively easy-to-build minifig, and use him as an ongoing subject of the ever-popular vignette MOCs. :-D Everything on Joe Vig can be found here: The Joe Vig page Quote
