Hi, Keith. (...) I have to admit direct inspiration from the blockdeath.com website for using all-black figs to represent crispified corpses. My first inclination would probably have been to show the victims screaming in pain, but I think the (...) (21 years ago, 18-Jul-03, to lugnet.build.ancient)

Hi, Bruce. (...) Yes, sometimes the distinction between a removed pair of LEGO pants and a severed lower body can hard to discern.

(...) As always Brendan, I love your work. I especially enjoyed the bathroom (nice use of tiles) and the burning at the stake! Flex sure appears in a lot of Bible stories! ;-) Where did you get that bear? Does it come from a Lego set? (21 years ago, 16-Jul-03, to lugnet.build.ancient)

Entertaining as usual Brendan. Here is a list of my personal highlights: 1. The burning at the stake. The all-black minifigs are classic. Nice wood-pile as well. I never would have thought to use black for crispy-sinners, but it works perfectly. 2. (...) (21 years ago, 15-Jul-03, to lugnet.build.ancient)

Hey Brendan, Great as always. Some thoughts: Sexual Discharges: First photo, I love the living room--the TV, the use of the promotional brick as a poster and that Jedi Starfighter flag as some sort of abstract art.

Wow. Thanks for showing us. I like the massive, bricky columns. Shows that squares are the way to go! I went looking for details on Pheidias (lost) statue. Could you tell a little bit about how you designed yours? -Erik (21 years ago, 8-Jul-03, to lugnet.build.ancient)
