I’ve been busy building this past year, but just got around to taking some
photos. This was built to salvage the house, which once starred in a Pirate
Game. So I decided to build the tree.
Well once you have a tree house, someone needs to live there. I had seen these
narrow-figs on Brickshelf (apologies to the designer, that I cannot cite you
exactly). They make great gnomes. Gnomes need birds and animal friends and
toadstools. Enjoy:

Hey Aaron,
Great MOC! I particularly like the raccoons, but the whole thing is fun. I
think that Lenny Hoffman gets the original credit for that mini-minifig design
with his halfling
warrior:

Ah, yes, I believe you are right. Lenny, do you deserve the credit?
Glad you like it Bruce.
As for the racoons, they were originally designed at LLCA to be Miniland scale.
Perhaps this whole model is approx. miniland scale- they are gnomes after all.
Clearly the snail, ladybug, and toadstools are fantasy versions.

How do you make these mini-minifigs?
What pieces are needed?
I have an idea, but i'm still not entirely sure.
Please offer advice, i'd really like to create one!
Take care,

Richard,
Torso: 1x1 technic brick
Shoulder Joints: 1~ long pnuematic tubing.
Arms: Arms
Take a look at the photo here:
<http://www.brickshelf.com/gallery/glencaer/BrickQuest/halfling1.jpg>
The first arm is easy to fit into the pnu tube. Getting the second arm into the
pnu tube while it's through the technic brick is trickier.
The length of the is most important, but is not an exact brick length. I had to
cut several pieces before I got it correct.

Agreed. I like the whole thing, but the Raccoons are great.

That’s lovely. What’s the part used for the orange tortoise’s shell though?

I believe it is one of these:

Also found on Peeron

Which is new to me.

Jeff and Jason,
That is indeed the correct part. I also have them in clear and trans-green, but
those aren’t very turtlish colors, unless you expose said turtle to enough
radiation.
