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.
This is a new pixie I am working on, I realized I always seem to make girls so I guess he is long overdue:)
In the new house bedroom. Both upstairs rooms have the same small fireplace. I'm not sure how old they are, must find out.

This photo and this text is also my contribution to the latest issue of Idle.
"Home
Home has been on my agenda lately. I've been kind of lost, floating in space without a home in the way I was used to.
I've left the person and the apartment that I called home. This made me "homeless". That was hard but it also gave me a strange feeling of freedom. I could live where ever I chose.
I think home is a space not a place - a space where no one should enter without your permission. A space where you could feel relatively secure. Maybe it can be an object, but in that case the object makes a space, in your mind, a space where you feel at ease.
Home means a lot to me, it has always done, but maybe in a different way now. I am my home. All I really need could fit in a suitcase or two.
At the moment I am working on "Memoire no 1", right now this is my home."

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.
