Thank you for your kind words. I concieved the design with the express idea
that the mountain would durable, reusable, and potentially 'fresh' for every
exhibition that it would appear. It's somewhat of a shame that it was only
in one show in it's present form so far. But it will be at Brickfest,
bigger, badder, and with more interesting features.
