Wow, Dennis!
It’s a fairly simple model, but it really captures the mood. I especially like
your windswept pine trees with the snow on the branches. Great touch!

Two lovers from rival samurai clans meet in secret on a cold winter day.
My first genuine non-space and mecha creation. I was inspired to try my hand at
building a snow scene after seeing the snowscaping in KeithLUG’s Omicron
Weekend, and this was the result. Originally this was supposed to include two
samurai warriors meeting for a duel, but the whole thing ended up looking so
peaceful and serene that I switched the model’s theme to that of Love!
Thanks for looking. :)

The never ending conflict of Ninjas and Pirates knows no bounds! It has even
broken through into the list of BrickWorld
contests. It’s my pleasure to announce the
BRICKWORLD NINJAS Vs PIRATES
VIGNETTE CONTEST
I imagine that most LUGNET readers are familiar with the
vignette concept, but just in case you’re not, you can view the
LUGNET Vignette newsgroup (which has a
nice list of vignette
galleries) or the
many
vignette galleries on Brickshelf.
Basic guidelines for the contest:
•
Use only LEGO brand pieces
• You can enter more than 1 vignette, but you can
only win 1 prize
• 10X10 stud size limit on width and length, There is no
height limit
• No carnage limit
• You and your MOC have to be present at
BrickWorld to be entered
A panel of judges will decide the winners.
Please keep in mind that this is not a Ninjas OR Pirates contest. Each
vignette must have something representing both Ninjas and Pirates and their
enmity towards each other.
There will be prizes for 1st, 2nd and 3rd place. To enter the contest, bring
your entry to BrickWorld and tag it with your name.
Good luck to everyone!

BrickWorld Castle Coordinator

Having now already been highlighted on http://vignettebricks.blogspot.com/ and
http://www.brothers-brick.com/ (thanks!), I thought I’d try to get around to
posting my first vignette; and first lugnet posting.
A Torii gate marks the entrance to a spiritual place. Hundreds of these
structures can be found across Japan near Shinto sites and Buddhist temples.
This vignette was made in response to a build challenge in my local club in the
Ottawa, ON area (http://www.parlugment.org).
Enjoy.

Here we go again in Portland! Just over 2 months till Brickfest PDX 2007!!
Frank Filz, Brendan Mauro, and I are coordinating the Castle display along with
other Historical (Pirate, Adventurers, Wild West, etc.). We’ve got plenty of
room in Convention Center so we’d like to make this display bigger than the one
we had at NWBC. The combined Castle display at NWBC was a huge success using
CCC, Base8, and unique creations. If you’re planning on attending and depending
on the theme please e-mail us, reply here, or join in the discussion over at
Classic-Castle and
let us know if you’re interested or not in participating in a combined display.
Also please let us know what you’re planning on bringing so we can get a general
idea of how much area we’re going to request. Based on the response we’re
getting over at Classic-Castle this is going to be a very large combined
display.
We’d like to plan for a fun time to be had by all so send us your ideas for
events you’d like to see happen. We’ll have Show ‘n Tell, Castle Community
Roundtable, and most likely a Landscaping discussion. Please let us know what
else you’d like to do. If you’d like to do a particular session or contest just
let us know and we’ll help make it happen.
We’ll most likely start a separate email list for planning the actual display so
to keep the final presentation a bigger surprise. We’ve got to keep those
Train guys guessing!
We’ve got plenty of time for planning and building so start brainstorming those
ideas for creating one of the most exciting Castle displays ever!!!
