Now you just need to post the pictures once you've completed each set. Looking forward to that

Several of the dark green parts may be from the Bounty hunter gunship https://www.bricklink.com/v2/catalog/catalogitem.page?S=7930-1#T=S&O={"iconly":0}

You have a mixture there Part: 8, is Lukes T16 Skyhopper https://brickset.com/sets/75081-1/T-16-Skyhopper Part 11, possibly is from Marvel HulkBuster Smash https://rebrickable.com/sets/76031-1/the-hulk-buster-smash/?inventory=1#parts Part 16, Ninjago https://brickset.com/sets/2521-1/Lightning-Dragon-Battle Part 19, which I thought was from Marvel Avengers, looks to be from Agents Speedboat Rescue instead https://www.bricklink.com/v2/catalog/catalogitem.page?S=8633-1#T=S&O={"iconly":0} I would pull up the parts list for these and start to pull some of the bricks out now that you know what the sets are BTW is number 12 Caution, LEGO?? The studs look like one of the generic brick studs type

BTW I just submitted my plans for making a LEGO mouse mat using just part 11010. Please like it you want LEGO to release it as a set

Nope! That's exactly right - mine opens the same way

Yeah, that's my main issue. The idea is simple, but the execution leaves something to be desired. I'm in no hurry to make a clock, but it is something I like the sound of. There's this idea http://gadgetsin.com/lego-minifigure-head-shaped-wall-clock.htm or this one http://www.arthursacek.com/2011/07/lego-clock-2011.html

I separate the end flap with a sharp craft knife and then simply flatten it It can be simply glued back together later

This is not my project, just found it on the web. Please delete it if it's aleady been posted It's a fun and inexpensive LEGO clock. You can easily change out the minifigures or LEGO bricks to match your mood. Clock kits run around $10 to $15, or you could try to use the parts from a thrifted clock for much less. http://ournerdhome.com/diy-lego-clock/ Great way to display your spare minifigs, or create a themed clock; Star Wars, Super Heroes, LOTR etc

I like it. Simple, clean, and fits in well with the existing ships

Nice, professional looking, fun review. Much better then most vid-reviews with terrible voice overs and shaky camera work, Heck, I'm tempted to buy an Island set just on the strength of this review.

Fantastic, and thanks for sharing

Like it. Very good

Fantastic. Thanks for sharing

erm I hope you stained that pillowcase on purpose. if not, then may I suggest switching to a medicated shampoo

http://www.eurobricks.com/forum/index.php?showtopic=87124&st=0 Have a read. There's two different techniques listed. Mine was to print on artists canvas.

Caribbean Clipper 6274 sails, scanned, cleaned in Photoshop and uploaded. Let me know if you think the blue is too light, it's set to my printer. I'll darken if needed http://www.brickshelf.com/gallery/june-bug/Sails/cc_-_fore_sail.jpg http://www.brickshelf.com/gallery/june-bug/Sails/cc_-_lower_main_sail.jpg http://www.brickshelf.com/gallery/june-bug/Sails/cc_-_upper_main_sail.jpg They should print out at 100%. To confirm sizes, these are the dimensions of the sails from each of the punch out holes. That is, it's not the true size of the sail, it's just how far apart the holes are Distance of punch out holes Fore sail: 10.1 x 16 cm Top sail: 20.8 x 12.7 Lower sail: 23.4 x 10.5 cm

I doubt that Hass will share his file. If this is anything like his other creation, Real Scorpion's Soul, expect to find instructions up for sale on completion. This doesn't mean that Hass doesn't have some great WIP's though. If you are not familiar with his stuff then check out the link. 279 photos of the build of Real Scorpion's Soul. https://www.flickr.com/photos/hasskabal/sets/72157628003901307/

Just a standard Canon pixma laserjet. You can feed paper in from the top rather then the bottom tray, which works well. The paper came from cartridge world as opposed to an art shop, so I new they were printer compatible. They had several different stock types and weights. I had to be a bit creative about fitting them onto A4 page. You get a little bit of extra space if you rotate the longer sails. I want to redo the sail from Lego Viking 7018. The red dragon has totally faded, but it won't fit onto an A4 sheet. I'm wondering about cutting down an A3 sheet and selecting custom paper size

Just remembered a couple of things, first I ran the scans through photoshop and removed the white parts and adjusted the saturation. There are some guides left for punching the holes. Also, i can't guarantee the scaling. I just used print preview, found the image size at 100% and then adjusted accordingly until it match the correct size Black Seas Barracuda (6285 - 10040): http://www.brickshelf.com/gallery/june-bug/Sails/lowermainsail-1.jpg http://www.brickshelf.com/gallery/june-bug/Sails/uppermainsail-1.jpg http://www.brickshelf.com/gallery/june-bug/Sails/sailbb23-1.jpg

I've uploaded the sails to the original thread. While this is an excellent tutorial, I couldn't make it work for me. The process was very time consuming and I found it impossible to get the creases out of calico. I use pre-treated artist canvas that comes in loose A4 sheets. The one I used was from Cartridge World and is called True Canvas 100% cotton canvas. A4 226 gsm (170gm2). My only issue was that on my printer I couldn't get a rich hue, I had to ramp the saturation right up, but your milage may vary Here is a close up of the weave And here is my BSB. The sails are stiffer then the origional Lego sails, but they are good enough for me. I did used a hole punch for, well, punching the holes, but I found they were slightly too big. In the end I used my eyelet plier kit to make the holes, but I guess that a leather hole punch would be better. The holes are 5mm http://www.wilko.com/hand-tools/wilko-leather-hole-punch/invt/0343445 http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/like/350977654615?limghlpsr=true&hlpv=2&ops=true&viphx=1&hlpht=true&lpid=108&chn=ps&device=c&adtype=pla&crdt=0&ff3=1&ff11=ICEP3.0.0-L&ff12=67&ff13=80&ff14=108&ff19=0

I've just uploaded my sails Missing Skull's Eye Schooner (6268- 6286) http://www.brickshelf.com/gallery/june-bug/Sails/sailbb15.png http://www.brickshelf.com/gallery/june-bug/Sails/sailbb06.png http://www.brickshelf.com/gallery/june-bug/Sails/sailbb07.png http://www.brickshelf.com/gallery/june-bug/Sails/sailbb31.png Missing Black Seas Barracuda (6285 - 10040) http://www.brickshelf.com/gallery/june-bug/Sails/sailbb23.png If someone wants to repair the original set of links using my pictures or start a new thread, please do so

Found the set in WH Smiths today. Turned out that I've picked up: the Alien Trooper, Evil Wizard and Unicorn girl. Liking the Wizard and Trooper. I can make a very nice D&D Mind flayer or Call of Cthulhu type abomination, and if I could find a suitable head the alien body would work for an Iron Man armour but what do I do with the Unicorn? Is there any way to "man" it up and incorporate it into other sets?? What could I do with the head/tail/horn pieces? My sets mostly tend to be: Star Wars/Pirates/Fantasy/Super hero. Pirate ship figurehead? Turn the head into a stuffed hunting trophy? Any suggestions?

I'm liking them, though I'm not too sure about the bedside table. Since you're replicating the concept of the Lego Advent calendar, have you limited yourself to a similar part count, and would each model be able to fit into one of the typical advent calendar trays?

Well you have my interest...
