When you’ve been in Israel?

Lol I was just thinking about my time in Israel and how long it has been
since I’ve been there! I spent a semester in Jerusalem when I was in college
*gasp* 29 years ago. Then I returned to eretz Yisrael two years later for a
2 month honeymoon:-) Haven’t been back since.

Then come visit once more:) You are always welcome
|
Thank you for the offer:-) You have an amazing country; one day I should like to
do just that!

I’m working on a viking shipyard for an exhibition in Høje Tåstrup next month.
The shipyard itself is
ready, so now it is time to build longships.
What do you think of it?
Any blatant anachronisms?
Play well,
Jacob

| | in march of this year, some members of our group were asked to create mocs to celebrate the ancient egypt exhibit at ottawa’s museum of civilization. i created an architectural moc after doing some research to try to make it at least somewhat historically accurate. there are not many pictures out there of actual ancient egyptian houses. this result is a composite take on a nobleman’s villa loosely based on floor plans i found.
|
| | i knew i couldn’t create a figless moc but it was difficult to gather enough plain yellow torsos to populate the villa with as many slaves as an affluent egyptian would own.
| | 
|
| | 
| | the most fun i had was creating the door design and the front gate. when i demolish the moc, i will save both pieces and create another doorway study for my series. i printed a custom coloured cloth to create the canvas awning for the roof top, yes, it is non-lego.
|
enjoy the folder including floor plans and research photos.

Wow... Once again you did a great job, Rev.

Thanks!

Although The Book of Revelation
can’t really be called fun in any way, I’m sure that building these stories
was fun. It’s all very graphic, that’s for sure...
|
Yes, illustrating Revelation the biggest challenge to date, but also probably
the most rewarding to complete, and certainly a lot of fun to work on.
| |
Any plans for the whole Brick Testament to be released as one (huge) book or
a series of volumes?
|
There are no plans in motion. But I certainly like the idea of one huge book.
Just need to wait for a publisher to come along with the balls to publish it.
The publisher of my first three books seems to have shelved the idea of a fourth
book after what they considered lackluster sales of the most recent book, The
Ten Commandments. Of course, in my totally unbiased view, I think they (or
someone else) could score a big hit with a Life of Jesus book, or Revelation.

The cut flex-tube idea is a nice one, David.
|
I did have to test it real quick before I posted th at, but I happened to have
both parts sitting on my desk at the time, so it didn’t take very long.
| |
I always feel a little weird about using cut flex-tube. The less “purist” a
technique is, the more I hesitate before using it to reconsider if there’s
not a more purist way to achieve a comparable effect without resorting to the
knife. Then again, when it comes to The Brick Testament I’m no stranger to
the knife when its benefits outweigh my hesitations to use it.
And no, this is not a circumcision innuendo.
|
Really? Are you sure? Because the one instance I can think of where you
definitely did mod a part was cutting up God’s little helmet...
Cutting flex-tube is one of the few things that even most purists are okay with,
along with pneumatic hose and basic string (the stuff that doesn’t have plastic
bits attached). The only reason for this is that there are sets that are
impossible to build without cutting those parts because they don’t pack them in
precut lengths. Now, that is to say that some (most, many, a few?) purists
are okay with modifying them, but I know there are people out there who would
cringe at the idea of putting official LEGO stickers on parts other than the
ones where they’re shown in the instructions (dunno what they’d expect you to do
with all the bonus stickers you get in nearly every Batman set).
