Lv 15:16 - Nice touch with the uneaten pizza, very bachelor like. “Hmm, should
I eat this pizza? Nah! I think I’ll just xxx a bit first.”

What bachelor among us has never found himself facing the pizza vs. xxx priority
dilemma?
| |
The couch and lamp is also very well done, as is the plant!
|
Thanks, it’s fun to work on such modern domestic scenes after having the
Israelites wandering the ancient wilderness for so long.
| |
Lv 15:16 - Nice bathtub, toilet seat and that soap reminds me of Fight Club,
extra points for that!
|
If only I could get Meatloaf to appear in The Brick Testament...
| |
Lv 15:17 - Nice washing equipment, except -as you already pointed out- the
washer should not have top loading and round glass. Still it’s makes it even
more washer like. The face is a tad un-bachelorius, he’s to happy down there
and I can’t seem to find any white round 1 x 1 plates to explain that...
|
Point well taken. He seems a little too happy to be doing his own laundry. I’m
guess I’m just never quite sure if and when I can change a minifig’s face
between illustrations and still have it be clear that it’s supposed to be the
same person -- especially in a situation like this where the rest of his outfit
changes between illustrations as well. Plus, I think that once you use Flex for
someone’s face, it’s hard to switch to another face and have it look like the
same person.

Lv 15:18 - New toilet seat, does it suggest a “bring the seat down dear”-theme
or am I trying to hard to see things which are not there?
|
I guess it’s there to suggest that it’s not necessarily the same bathroom as
before. Perhaps it’s a sly commentary on the state of modern American
bathrooms: save for some slight variation in toilet seat covers, they all look
the same. It’s an issue I feel very strongly about.
| |
Lv 15:24 - I hope you don’t have a floor like that at home :) Neat touch to
change the time!
|
Fortunately, that flooring is not based on anything in my house. @8^)
| |
Lv 15:28 - Nice wall calendar!
|
I felt a little guilty about using Photoshop to add the red x’s to mark the days
counted off, but I wasn’t sure how else to illustrate that Bible verse.

Lv 18:22 - Is that vase clickits? Also seen previously but in a non-girlish
color. Nice floor!
|
I’m not sure if it’s a Click-Its element. I picked up a small bag full of those
‘bead’ pieces at a shop in LEGOland while at BricksWest last February, which is
a while before the Click-its line was released. But certainly the piece is
meant to be part of LEGO jewelry, so it could at least be considered as
proto-Click-Its in nature.

Lv 18:13 - Bring on the pitchfork! Really looks like a mob in true witch-hunt
manner!
|
It’s so easy to turn a small crowd into a mob: just give one guy a pitchfork,
another guy a torch, and voila!

Incest
Lv 18:14 - Perhaps you could have done the burning corpses in a more
semi-burnt state. Perhaps one skeleton leg and this face:
http://www.brickshelf.com/cgi-bin/gallery.cgi?i=234048 It would display more
pain in the burning process IMHO.
|
Not a bad idea at all. Next time I show some unfortunate souls being burnt
alive, I will certainly consider that method. Thanks.
| |
The fire fighter is a bizarre detail.
|
I suppose so. I just figured that since this is an officially-sanctioned
community burning-at-the-stake, a fire marshall might be present to keep the
fire under control.
Sir, yes, sir!
