Two Stones in the Final End - MM
I didn't stay up until 2am to watch the women's team curling final, but made sure I watched a recording of it as soon as I woke up.
While watching, I was idly trying to think of something with Two as the subject for my Macro Mondays offering, when the GBR women, Eve Muirhead, Vicky Wright, Jen Dodds and Hailey Duff took 2 stones in the 9th end, to win by 10-3.
Congratulations to the whole team, including fifth member Mili Smith. Commiserations to the Japanese curling team, and I hope I haven't upset any Japanese MM photographers!
My next challenges were to find the right pieces of Lego for the stones, and cobble together the team from a large bag of Lego. In fact, only one figure fitted in the final crop for MM, but the three players at that end of the ice are all in my wider shot for the 365 group! Apologies, I didn't have any brushes, so shovels had to make do for their sweeping pads!
The House, at just over 3" across in total, was created to scale in PS, then printed on 6"x4" to the correct size for the "stones" I had found.
