evancelt

Thanks! We're in the process of putting the collab together today as a display. Here's what the two halves of the road look like together before we add the ocean

Cadets from the Military Academy play music under an oak, evancelt

The cadets had a few hours of downtime following the dinner mess at the Fort Stockton Military Academy. As he retrieved his lute, Fredrick Granger invited Henry Theobald and Gibby Vand to accompany him on fiddle and accordion. They settled in under a mossy oak tree and began to play an upbeat reel. Theobald first and then Vand noticed a strange accompaniment. They looked at one another as they played on - a mysterious 'HOOT' sounded in time to the song. ------------- OOO: Just an excuse to play with an antler oak. I have many more coming in the mail, so I'll make a bigger one soon.

A portion of my contribution to a national parks collaboration. The bottom border matches up with another builder's contribution to form a road. The entire collaboration will be on display at the Boulder, CO Bricks and Minifigs store starting this Sunday

Beautiful ship! Like others have mentioned, great transition from prefab hulls to the brickbuilt ones. Looks like a very tall ship! Im sure Corrington will be glad to have her A GoC from me

Thanks for moving the thread to the Town subforum @Professor Thaum - seems like a better place for it!

Today I added vegetation and minifigs!

Working on a SNOT roadway to accompany the build. A collaborator will complete the other half of the road Also got started on the background mountains. A few more layers of rock and snow needed before vegetation gets added

Check out @CapOnBOBS's interview with Beyond the Brick. He gives BoBS a shoutout

Picked up a 9v train setup on BL with DBG track! Planning to switch out the RC track for the metal track, which should allow me to motorize the train tender without making it huge to support a big RC battery box

Made some more progress on my Rocky Mountain National Park build last night - need to start the mountains and road next

Major Brickleton leads Hussars on patrols around Seawatch Bluecoat forces head toward Seawatch from Fort Arltrees

No doubt that side looks like crap However, I plan on only ever showing the three good sides

The 3.Division de la Armee "Oleonda" sets out from Fort Arltrees to join the fight against the Lotii near Seawatch

Tales later told that Bjorn Byggshield was compensating for the fact he couldn't grow as full of a mustache as his brother Olaf.

:) 1. I have all of the currently-produced colors and I'm looking to expand my color palette 2. Yes, the finish on the cut side is crap. I think I could seal it up / melt it smooth with acetone, but I really don't expect to use these pieces where all 4 sides are visible. 3 of the sides are perfect! 3. See #2 4. Interesting idea!

Working on a national park scene. Started on the river section

Because LEGO stopped production on sand red pieces about 15 years ago, 1x2 plates in that color cost $3 each in the US! So I took matters into my own hands

This is superb @Ayrlego! The colors of the vegetation and the building/roof combo look so great. Excellent job! The sand green/ dark green base combo works really well How is that evergreen bush on the right held together? A GoC from me

Thanks @Kai NRG @Fraunces @blackdeathgr ! @blackdeathgr - You can see my first experiment with claw grass here:

Thanks! Here are some photos of the design:

It should be there through the end of the year at least - it is now moved into a case by the sale items (back right).

Thanks @NOD @Captain Braunsfeld @Bregir @Justsomebrix ! I was going for him resting the musket in the crook of his left arm (inner elbow)

Thanks! The chevrons are just a little sticker I printed onto Avery shipping labels Thanks! It's fun to mix up base styles and these sideways SNOT ones are very quick and add interesting textures
