Here's my attempt at a mini snoopy figure.  It's slightly larger than mini-fig
scale, but much smaller than the excellent Snoopy & Woodstock sculptures I've
seen discussed here & posted on Brickshelf, most recently by Vian Chan Foo in
this post:  http://news.lugnet.com/announce/moc/?n=814  ,which inspired me.

Thanks!  The top of his head gave me trouble; I tried plates, domes & finally
settled on the slopes.

That's great!  I love to see such innovative stuff at minifig scale.

Thanks,  I't would be interesting to see in a brickfilm, or moonbase, or train
display--kind of like 'find Snoopy'

You have captured the essence of Snoopy.  Your Creation is really wonderful!
Encore?!

I am mentally scrounging to see if I have the parts to concoct a copy.
Unfortunately, I am beginning to conclude I don't...    If it is not too much
trouble might you give a list of the parts?  I am horrible at trying to figure
out what various unique bits are called.  [I forsee an emergency visit to
bricklink.com in my near future.]

Thanks! I will probably have to make several compromises regarding color as,
my Lego stash is light on the necessary elements.  But, your Snoopy is sooo
cute*,  I must hobble some sort of rendition ot it together.

cute]

That's fabulous!!  Amazing that you could capture the spirit of Snoopy
in such a small scale!  But do those parts actually exist in those
colors?  I doubt it...
