  Oh no , Gerald , we've hardly started . There's plenty more where that came from . Stand back , or you might get hurt in the crossfire .

The modeling level of excellence for this thread is quite good. But the humor level of the replies- is it the equivalent of "locker room bantering"?

As. we havent had apathy, Ill add "Ho-Hum...whatever"

Maybe someone shoulld do a workup of this build in SketchUp, and see if it can be rapid prototyped.

It has a Picasso-esque feel to it....but I am thinking, if you were to melt it over the corner of a table, or while dangling from a tree branch, it would be much more Dali.-esque

What about going more Manet, and rebuilding the whole thing out of those little tiny/flat two-bump pieces (actually don't know if they even make those any more)

  Greetings , Mike , how are you doing ? Started scratch building in O scale yet ?

  If it is intellectual conversation you want , you've come to the wrong place .

And "the modelling ( note correct spelling ) level of Excellence for this thread is ONLY quite good " . Talk about damning with faint praise , I sweated blood trying to get that building to the stage that it is at . If you knew the problems I had trying to build it with the wrong sized bricks you wouldn't be so mean with your praise . Even Reinberg would give it a " most satisfactory " if he were still able to speak .

Wow all this banter over two pictures!!  Image if you would have done something or finished what you started?

If he actually finished something, there would be no banter, because we'd all be smacked silly, or so stunned, that we would be unable to respond.

Bit of progress on my Lego barn .

   From 900 individual bricks in 7 sessions for my first attempt to over 5000 in the same time for my second using the new patented method ,

And to think, it isn't the first of April.

[Ray Dunakin]

Looks great! Nothing beats individual bricks, that's for sure.

patented method 

[danpickard]

Thats a typo Craig...was meant to be "patiented method" 

Good looking start Nick.  Nice colour variations.  Good use of the "form work". 

Cheers,
Dan
