Col. Brik Posted December 4, 2012 Posted December 4, 2012 (edited) Apologies for possibly placing this in the incorrect forum but it will be "story telling" and I hope it is ok. I just thought I would share a little fun I am having among friends on facebook. Last year we did our family Christmas photo with minifigs. It was a big hit. This year, wanting to top lasts, I decide to make our home with minifigs standing outside. It then grew into a advent, each day is a new scene, a little different/odd/wierd compared to the last. I just thought I'd share since it has been awhile since I was in the forums, always lurking, but I haven't contributed in a long time. My inspiration for this comes from the Reasonably Clever webcomic. I always laugh when I read it and the advent fun is pretty cool. Please let me know if the links are not working, thank you. Thanks.

Andy D Posted December 4, 2012 Posted December 4, 2012 (edited) I really like this! But it appears that day 2 should be day 1, or am I missing something? Overall, very, very clever. Andy D Edited December 4, 2012 by Andy D Quote
Col. Brik Posted December 5, 2012 Author Posted December 5, 2012 I really like this! But it appears that day 2 should be day 1, or am I missing something? Overall, very, very clever. Andy D Hmm, not sure, Day one should be the family photo, all looking at the camera, day two is the three of us boys peeing in the yard :) Quote
Kristel Posted December 5, 2012 Posted December 5, 2012 These are great! Cute house too. I'm looking forward to the next instalments! Quote
Andy D Posted December 6, 2012 Posted December 6, 2012 (edited) Hmm, not sure, Day one should be the family photo, all looking at the camera, day two is the three of us boys peeing in the yard :) My confusion, I thought the first picture was before the snowman, but it must have been off to the left (from viewer POV) I really like this vingette and I am looking forward to another instllment. Edit: Uh Oh, just noticed day 5 and the melted snowman. Andy D Edited December 6, 2012 by Andy D Quote
Col. Brik Posted December 6, 2012 Author Posted December 6, 2012 Yes, the boys thought the snowman was a little creepy and we think he might have moved once, so not taking any chances, they burned him up. I will update/edit the front page each day. I just started using imgr (late to the party) and haven't gotten used to cropping them yet. Thanks for the kind words. The house is actually a vignette of our home, I will put a updated photo up for comparison. Thanks everyone. Quote
Col. Brik Posted December 10, 2012 Author Posted December 10, 2012 Apologies for the delay, I was gone for the weekend and unable to upload. Quote
Wedge09 Posted December 10, 2012 Posted December 10, 2012 Really nice scenes :thumbup: , make me laugh Quote
Andy D Posted December 11, 2012 Posted December 11, 2012 I have been following your Advent Adventure since the beginning, and i think it is very clever and fun. However, with the number of days it is getting difficult for me. I like to look at the prior photos and I believe it might be easier if they were in-line so you can scroll back and forth between photos. I noticed that the service you use for photo hosting allows several options for embedding photos. Just a thought... Keep up the updates. Andy D Quote

I will make a attempt at cleaning things up, hopefully I can get them in a proper order. Thanks Quote
Col. Brik Posted December 15, 2012 Author Posted December 15, 2012 Another delay, I didn't expect to be unable to keep up, RL matters had me away from my pc Quote
Kristel Posted December 28, 2012 Posted December 28, 2012 Just wanted to say thanks for sharing. I enjoyed following this over the last few weeks, but almost missed 25 Dec, as I had assumed the 24th would have ben the last one. Looks like you and the boys had a lot of fun. I hope all those visitors didn't stay for Christmas dinner! Quote
Brickington Posted January 1, 2013 Posted January 1, 2013 Sorry for not noticing this earlier, this is interesting. I like it! Quote
