TheWarden Posted November 28, 2017 (edited) Last day entry as usual... Like most AFOLS, I imagine my perfect LEGO tree would be of rare colors! So I set about to see if I could make a tree out of my small sand green and olive green collection. It's... okay looking? The olive green against the sand green reminded me of drying out pine needles making a mess, so I made a little scene of it. Eurobricks XMas Raffle by James Warden, on Flickr Anyway, not much, but I had fun trying to do with a limited amount of parts in running out of time. Thanks to CopMike and EB staff for the raffle as always! Edited November 28, 2017 by TheWarden Screwed up BBCode Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
penguinz Posted November 28, 2017 Glad to see this raffle returning! It always gives me a good excuse to work on something LEGO related and take a break from graduate school. My ideal Christmas tree is simple and elegant... I had some fun trying out some different techniques to get a decent tree shape with this one! Thank you CopMike!

shiftaltcmd Posted November 28, 2017 The best part is to find the perfect tree (and not to be discovered stealing it). The most dangerous animal in the deep dark forest is the snow-snake. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

BEAVeR Posted November 28, 2017 The ideal Christmas tree doesn't have to be very big or ornate, but has to be a beacon that brings people together in peace, no matter their differences. That's why I created a scene based on the Christmas Truce in the First World War, where Christmas inspired people to see the human in the person that made their lives a misery throughout the year. It must have been a magical moment, and looking at pictures and reading stories about it is just heart warming. Sadly, the Christmas Truce didn't last long, and in the years following 1914, more and more punishments went into effect to prevent soldiers from uniting with the enemy again during Christmas. But the spark was there, and it might inspire all of us to maintain a Christmas Truce all year round. I wish you all peaceful holidays! Note about the build: the black and white effect is achieved in camera: the entire build just uses LBG, DBG and black bricks. The pine tree design is 95% Ecclesiastes'.

Actor Builder Posted November 28, 2017 (edited) A quick build over thanksgiving break, because all my LEGO is at home and I'm at University. This is a tree who has recently graduated from some kind of establishment. As you can see, this recently graduated tree is in a mostly empty house. This represents The Struggle. Also worthy to note is the gold window panes in the otherwise bland house. This represents The Objective. the hat represents The Graduation, and the floorboards represent The Floor. Thanks for putting on another raffle! It's loads of fun! Edited November 28, 2017 by Actor Builder Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
