The Gift Ship Hello all, nice to meet you! Here is my entry for the Winter Village contest. The Gift Ship! Sometimes Santa and the elves like to get out of the shop and take boat ride around the Winter Village. They go sailing around fishing for gifts and sharing them with children around the coasts. The Gift Ship comes complete with wrapping stations with ribbon and tape, rolls of wrapping paper, AND, get this, GIFTS! I wanted to make something convertible since I feel like the past WV could give the option for closing up the backs without sacrificing a lot and increase play value and display options. I also felt that while always awesome the locomotives have been stealing the spotlight away from other perfectly good forms of transportation! I had much more planned but unfortunately I only had last night to work on this and things escalated pretty quickly in the building department. Hope you enjoy the photos and can find some techniques and brick combinations you like! Let's set sail! Thank you for looking and have a Happy New Year!!!

Welcome to Santa's Village! Step right up and get your photo taken with the big man himself, then continue shopping at the many stalls in the Winter Market. This is my entry to the Expand the Winter Village Market contest. One 8x16 module with one-stud overhang plus two 8x8 modules. Here's Santa's seat and the lineup. I built the tree how I figured TLG would, and the globe's for showing children all the places Santa visits. For only $100 you can buy a print of you with Santa from one of his elves. There are a lot of bad isms, but commercialism's one of the worst... One last shot of everything. Merry Christmas!

One winter morning mr. Korzhikov was ready to go to his bakery to make croissants but has found it covered with snow . Instead he had a long time to dig it out and listen to the mocking sounds of magpies. too_much_snow by vir-a-cocha, on Flickr -
I designed this little Winter Kirk in LDD originally, but decided to build it for real. Which is when you learn that things you thought joined up in LDD don't... The brick count is slightly higher than most of the small Winter Village sets, but that's mostly down to the large number of studs used in the wall. I think the pricing would be pretty similar really. This is how it all looks in my Winter Village, set out on the kitchen table rather than the mantelpiece where it actually spends Christmas. IMG_8763.2 by HundredHander, on Flickr The Kirk is hinged, so while the back isn't open like most of the Winter Village stuff you can get in there. I think it looks better open too, less austere and more welcoming. I went with slopes rather than plates, it fits better with the medieval village buildings, and I'm not happy with the fragility of the plate roofs in the first two Winter Village sets. I have a four year old who expects to be able to play with this stuff. Kirk Front - open by HundredHander, on Flickr This is the 'set'. The kirk, a very fancy one horse open sleigh and a hovel. The children are taking alms to the poor. I've put in the soldiers as I like the church/ state tension. The rich/ poor tension should be pretty obvious, but for me it's a lot of what Christmas is about. The minifigs are: Minister for the church Two soldiers Two children Two poor people One sleigh woman. IMG_8788 by HundredHander, on Flickr And the hovel. It has a little fireplace, and though you can't really see it in this picture is built on a little rocky outcrop, where the fire is set.

[EDIT] Finally due to a nice christmas present by flickr I was able to upload my pictures. They are now here [/EDIT] [EDIT] Did some changes. Photos will follow. I can't upload to flickr for this month any more. Until then the pictures are on Google+: Winter Village Christmas Market I will change the pics for the contest as soon as possible. [/EDIT] So, I made up something for the contest. It is not finished, yet. But I am running out of ideas at the moment - and of course bricks I hope this one will fit in the scenery. So here it is: the Winter Village Christmas Market MOC. Also I added a little game in here which is called "Where is Waldo?".
