In the last few years I've regularly built small bits of landscape to serve as a backdrop for my minifig scale models. I'm more of a vehicle builder than a builder of organic things, though, so trees are a challenge. I have completed several new models recently (which I have yet to photograph) and I'm building another bit of landscape, for them, so I'm now trying a few new trees. By hinging the branches, they look a bit less layered than my older ones.

These farmers have a relatively new, small but neat and tidy looking house. A few years ago they added an ugly looking house trailer. I believe that the above was added over the summer of 2022.
We could speculate about it but I shall keep an eye on it for developments. The owners of the property vacation in a warmer climate in winter. If I see the couple who look in on the property in winter, as I did last year, some answers could be forthcoming. Of course, a picture of the ugly trailer will be forthcoming too.
This has taken so unbelievably long. I think I should have been able to do everything so much more quickly, but I've done some parts of it over 5 times or so. Anyway, someday it will hopefully get done. I'm posting a picture now just to feel like I've accomplished something, at least.
This was a bargain. I picked it up at the Mount Prospect city police auction last spring. It's an old Mount Prospect police car. They were practically giving 'em away...
This may turn out to be the coolest of my collection of movie/TV cars. I'm awaiting a bricklink order with a few additional parts and have lots of things I still have to do, but the outside is larger finished. Building my White van gave me some confidence that I would be able to pull off the car's dirty appearance, and I'm reasonably happy with progress so far. I intend to add the massive PA system to the roof, but that depends on whether I can make it look good. Lego makes cone elements with a 4x4 base, which is too small, and 8x8, which is too large.
