Hey all, Spent the morning making three vignettes: This one is from a scene in my favorite movie, which I was watching while I was building. Its called "The Floor is On Fire:" http://www.brickshelf.com/gallery/Athos/Vignettes/Adventurers/thefloorisonfire1.jpg This second one illustrates the dangers of setting up sun-bathing camp too close to the ocean: http://www.brickshelf.com/gallery/Athos/Vignettes/MiscVignettes/surf1.jpg And the third one is the funeral (perhaps for the unfornate fellow in the previous vignette): http://www.brickshelf.com/gallery/Athos/Vignettes/MiscVignettes/burial1.jpg More images of the floor is on fire and other similar themed vignettes: http://www.brickshelf.com/cgi-bin/gallery.cgi?f=119054 More images of the surfer and the funeral: http://www.brickshelf.com/cgi-bin/gallery.cgi?f=121980 Hope you like them, Steve

Very nice! The sun bathing one is my favorite! In fact, I had nearly the very same idea for a Joe Vig vignette! I think the wave might look better if it had some transparent blue and white pieces in it, but the shape itself looks good. The Floor Is On Fire is funny too! I just can't place the film... ;-D The funeral one is somewhat static, but I like the design of the tree. I love brick-built trees. Think Big, Build Small, Play Well!

Not sure if I have enough transblue bricks or any transblue slopes. > The Floor Is On Fire is funny too!

Any suggestions on how to make it less static? Steve

The Southern California wave rider in me came out when I saw it. Question- Did you intentionally make it look like the surfer is going to go over the falls? A nice accent if you did. Adr.
