Thank you for all the comments everyone!

Here's my entry for the Winter Village contest! I hope you guys like it! Happy Holidays!!!! (Also, just as a little comment: I'm from Southern California where there is no snow. This is my depiction of a not so white Christmas!) Winter Village: Corner Store by Carson Hart, on Flickr

I think this is a real fantastic contest and fun to enter in. I look forward to participating, however, I'm really not a big fan of the voting. I just feel like certain entries can easily get overlooked and others get voted for more because they see other people voting for that person. I generally think it's best when there is a group of judges who all give their vote non-subjectively. Otherwise I think this is a great contest and look forward to the next one!

Ohhhhhhhhh, that makes sense. Thank you

But other people have replied to their own topics and there is no technic hole?

Just wondering, does my (1x1 blue brick) mean anything if it has a technic hole in it? I haven't used Eurobricks in a while and completely forgot if it means anything. Sorry I just want to make sure I'm not doing anything wrong

Thank you guys!

Here's my last minute entry! I hope you guys like it, and Happy Holidays! Winter Village Gazebo by Carson Hart, on Flickr Here's a pic of the violin player at sunset, just for fun. Violin at Sunset by Carson Hart, on Flickr

Great entry as always!

Sorry, I've never posted a photo on here without taking it from Flickr. I need to figure this out :P

I already commented on the Brothers Brick but I'm curious on your thoughts: "I noticed how similar this building is to my “French Cafe” that was featured on here in the past. The restaurant/ bakery on the bottom floor, a bedroom in the middle floor, and a studio on the top, with a fold down roof. Also little details like the dumpster and rat in the back. I don’t mind it at all, but it’s interesting on how their models sometimes appear to be inspired by those in the community."

It feels good to finally build some Harry Potter again :) [ IMG_9208 by Carson Hart, on Flickr] Here's the original photo.

My second entry for the sic-fi contest over at Eurobricks! This was really fun to make, and it was cool to finally make something Steampunk... Plus Momo is awesome. Momo's Machine by Carson Hart, on Flickr

I wasn't sure what to title this, but I found out that "alaula" means dawn in Hawaiian, so I thought it would work. Anyways, here's my entry for the sic-fi contest over at Eurobricks. I sort of imagined the bridge as a futuristic style version of the classic bridges that trains cross over. The build is also inspired by Dr. Seuss. PS: I started building another microscale scene that was underground, but it just didn't really work for me. I also really wanted to use some of my Scala pieces and this was much more fun. I'll post my other entry in a little bit! The Land of the Alaula by Carson Hart, on Flickr

Thanks guys! I wanted to make the hat smaller because it was supposed to resemble a more basic Santa, plus I thought it would be funnier if it was a little small one that's barely hanging off at the side.

"He sees you when you're sleeping, he knows when you're awake" Hohohohohoho! Here's my sort of random entry for the "Like a Boss Contest". I wanted to do something in the Christmas spirit, while still being able to fit under the contest rules. TROLOLO CLAUS is basically a giant floating Santa head that tries to eat any elf that dares to face him. Anyways, this was extremely fun to build and even more fun to edit. I hope you guys like it, and have a really great Holiday!!! [ TROLOLO CLAUS by Carson Hart, on Flickr]

Here's my entry! Thanks for having this raffle, and good luck to everyone else! Santa Hat by Carson Hart, on Flickr

Thank you!

Congrats to the winners! Do you have a list to that shows who got second place, and so on? I'm just curious as to where I stand. Great entries though! Thanks a lot for the contest, it was really, really fun!

Thank you! It's one building, but I made the second and third levels so that you can separate them. I just wanted to make it a little unique I guess

Thanks! It's actually Hugo Cabret working on his Automaton

Thanks! I'm sure the newspaper boy will just have to sell them a paper for him to get out of the way

Thanks! Glad you think so!

The number one thing I do whenever i want to build a specific thing or type of architecture, I look up photos for reference. Just do tons of research of all kinds of different buildings to see what you are looking for. Once you find the photos you would like to base your building on, start building! For my recent "French Cafe" building, it all started with the outdoor heaters Just find a certain detail you want to work on first and keep going from there! But remember, it's better to take your time and think of different ways of building. You will always get a better result!
