Hey Brendan,

Great work as always.

God Refuses to Save Israel: Nice group of idols. Who worships Jar-Jar? LOL on the Israelites pulling the horses. In that same scene I like the detail of the white railings with the red backing as a doorframe.

Massacre of the Ammonites: Nice interpretation of “threw away the foreign gods”. :) (I think that’s a typo, btw, you say “god” but I think it should be “gods”.) Is Gilead’s father’s beard painted? I like the modified hair, btw. In 11:3, the backdrop light gray/dark gray mountains fit really well with the gray patterned raised baseplate. Nice floor in 11:12. I can’t say I really like the sculpy-beard in 11:13. In 11:13, what are the red pieces that make the sides and armrests of the throne? In 11:32, how is that severed torso suspended?

Jephthah: I like the windows in the building in 11:34 and 35 a lot. Interesting altar table and nice use of the black fig in 11:39.

Ephraimites: In 12:4-5 I really like the layering of the green ground up out of the river. Often in the past your landscape has been fairly flat.

Speedy gon-hietbrink strikes again! :)

Bruce

(...) Bruce, I don't think that is sculpy. Take (URL) this> from Travis's BrickShelf gallery. The two beards are identical.
