Well Actually....it is a plastic marker of some sort, about 3 feet tall and 6-7 inches wide. It appears to have some sort of ...?

Fungus, mold, gunk? growing on it. As for me, I see a map of an area with water and islands. Maybe a way marker to Narnia or something.

Seen along the Marina trails in Morro Bay Estuary.

Subways, lower levels or best of all, the upper level, its all ahead of you at Terminal Two, Heathrow Airport, its another level.

About a year ago I played through this game yet again, this time together with my girlfriend. We both had so much fun during that time, it actually made us sad we finished the game. That reminded me of why I love this game so much, the hundreds of play throughs I did as a kid and as an adult, so an idea was born..

 

This is my LEGO render of the official box art of the Super Nintendo game Secret Of Mana.

The game was released in 1993 for the Super Nintendo by Square. In Japan the game was called Seiken Densetsu 2. It is an official game from the Final Fantasy line up, but one of the few that used a real time battle system. What really made this game interesting was the fact that you could play it in "co-op" as it is called today, wich, offcourse, means great fun!

 

My idea is to make a series of this game, rendering certain scenes from the game in LEGO, and this MOC being the intro to this series.

 

Thanks for looking!

Last Saturday we attended the first mass gathering for what seems like forever. Friends of ours got married and what a fantastic day it was. The rain held off for all the important parts, the company was great, the food was lovely and the venue had an interesting garden. Win all round.

 

All this meant we had to come up with a suitable wedding gift. After a bit of indecisiveness it was deemed that an embellished map of where they live would hopefully hit the target. Veering slightly from our usual course of something subversive or tongue in cheek we just went with something sweet and romantic - it is a wedding gift after all. ‘To Infinity and Beyond’ is the final result complete with wedding monogram. They seemed to like it at least and that’s more than enough for me.

 

Cheers

Sometimes I have no real reason to do something other than it seemed like a good idea at the time. And 'One night in Parys' would be a good illustration of that.

 

For some unfathomable reason I have decided to mash up two entirely different subjects merely for a play on the word 'Paris/Parys'. One would be the infamous sex tape made by Paris Hilton entitled 'One night in Paris' and one would be a huge copper rich hill on Anglesey called Parys Mountain (although it's not really a mountain) where they've mined copper for hundreds of years. Still with me?

 

First up I've 'borrowed' the text from the cover of the video and repurposed it to read 'Parys', then I've added a stencil of none other than sultry local lass, Parys Hulton, into the mix. Then, I've added in a handwritten message in lipstick saying 'CU there Px' and, as I'm sure we all know, CU is the chemical symbol for copper. Finally I've put the ancient symbol for copper around Parys mountain itself - which is also the same symbol for Venus and for females in general so it all works together rather nicely. Is it a treasure map or an invitation for a booty call? Who's to say...

 

She's made using the power of maps, stencils, paint pens and, I think, an earworm. Drop us a line if you need her on your wall. If you've gotten this far though you probably deserve the earworm which I think started this all in the first place 'One night (one night), one night in heaven. When you touch me, you take me up high with the clouds in the sky...'.

Good advice is all over the place. As is bad advice. The key to success lies in knowing the difference between the two. 'A noble spirit embiggens the smallest man so just be yourself' is good advice. 'A noble spirit embiggens the smallest man so just be yourself' - unless you can be id-iom, in which case, be id-iom' is great advice.

 

Once you've added that most cromulent advice to a map of Dorking and the surrounding area you've got yourself something that is educational, useful and inspirational all at the same time. And it can be yours. All you have to do is drop us a line and we can get our guys to speak to your guys and work something out...
