MAN DOWN!!
Either way, don't think I'll enter, I'm not much of a spaceshipspaceshipspaceship builder, nor have I attempted something like that
"I don't have to be the bad guy. I'm the most talented, most interesting, and most extraordinary person in the universe. And I'm capable of amazing things. Because I'm the Special. And so is everyone. The prophecy is made up, but it's also true. It's about all of us. Right now, it's about me. And me... still... I can change everything."
Tinker Bell is an extremely popular character, originally created by J. M. Barrie, and currently owned by the Walt Disney Company. I believe fans of Disney and LEGO would love to build this rendition of her. In my concept model, her arms, legs, head, and wings can be moved to achieve various poses.
I had thought about buying the pieces to build Tinker Bell in real life, but most of her 199 pieces do not yet exist in the colors I chose--such as the Light Nougat (a.k.a. Light Flesh) in her head, arms, and legs. If my concept of Tinker Bell were to be produced, it might be possible to use Brick Yellow (a.k.a. Tan), a more common color, in place of Light Nougat. However, after trying that in LEGO Digital Designer, I noticed that Tinker Bell's skin looked unnatural. In real life, Brick Yellow might look better than it does in LEGO Digital Designer. While designing my concept, I tried to preserve a realistic appearance while still allowing for movement of joints. The arms and head were especially challenging. Although my concept has brick-built eyes, I think custom decals would look better.
Feel free to inspect my concept in LEGO Digital Designer. Here is the posed model, and here is a straight standing version.
Please vote for my concept on LEGO Ideas. If you have friends and/or relatives that might like this model, please tell them to sign up and vote for it too.
And my favourite part: the ingenious solution I came up with for the obligatory sofa bed:... probably more comfortable looking than typical static caravan sofa beds ;-P
Not always, but it is usually where the not-so-well-off live.
I suppose holidaying in a caravan (static or mobile) is a typically British thing to do though, it's a pretty big business here :-)
I'm kidding, had to take advantage of that! XoP
Most of the other pieces have now been posted and have been compiled in this Flickr gallery: https://www.flickr.com/photos/[email protected]/galleries/72157645496385816/#
A lot of old train yards use them for offices or sleeping quarters for railway workers.
:oP
Untimely demises of talented, smart a** builders.
Sorry @rancorbait, I'm just jealous of your talent is all. ;-)
Note: I don't have my college DSLR camera anymore so back to square one :/
