BrickOn Posted November 12, 2015 Yay! Thanks for doing this again, I have a quick question, could the build include one teeny tiny paint job on a single brick, or are modifications out too? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

CopMike Posted November 12, 2015 .........I have a quick question, could the build include one teeny tiny paint job on a single brick, or are modifications out too? ..............is there any size limits? Can it include non-LEGO LED lights? Is there anything in the Rules that forbid a paint job, imposes a maximum size limit or exclude non-LEGO LED lights as long it's not in the form of a piece?

TheLegoDr Posted November 12, 2015 ^That tree is incredible! I can't wait to see what others come up with (and figure out what I want to do). I love this raffle. Thanks CopMike! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
CM4Sci Posted November 12, 2015 Hooray, raffles! I didn't win last year, so I hope I win this year! Very nice tree, Pate! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Pate-keetongu Posted November 12, 2015 Thanks, it was based on these seen on TBB and expanded further, so not completely my own design; I'm glad I grabbed those baby bows from PaB in Britain, great pieces. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
ResIpsaLoquitur Posted November 12, 2015 How new is "new"? There's a certain polybag set that I want to take and modify into tree form. I'd basically be building on top of an already built set. Should I just post and let you judge? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Sir E Fullner Posted November 13, 2015 I was listening to some Glenn Miller swing music today. So, why not have a swing-themed tree with Glenn himself? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Blakstone Posted November 13, 2015 (edited) It is the most wonderful time of the year.... Eurobricks XMas Raffle. Wishing AFOLs everywhere a Merry Yule. With cats, I find it best to hang my "tree" on the wall, least they climb it. Edited November 13, 2015 by Blakstone Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
