Captain Braunsfeld Posted August 11, 2018 (edited) In the summertime when the weather is hot you can find Pontelli's people going for a decent swim in the sea: Some people are buying over-priced cookies... .. some are challenged with their sandcastle... .... but life's for livin', that is their philosophy... Pls note the fashionable parasols. (inspired by Toskany where we found amazingly turqoise water at a wonderful beach - we assume some chalk to be the cause of the fantastic colour) Edited April 24 by Captain Braunsfeld (pictures now on Bricksafe instead of flickr) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Capt Wolf Posted August 11, 2018 Fun build! (And glad to hear about the even-better inspiration; that must have been nice.) I did notice the lovely palm parasols. The challenged sandcastle cracked me up. And nice use of those Unikitty bases! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Somebody has pointed me to those Unikitty bases. Otherwise I find those kitties pretty useless, but the bases make nice clouds. 16 hours ago, LM71Blackbird said: A pleasant build to look at!
