(...) I think I'll make one of the classic space guys and castle knights. :) Question about the wench: wouldn't you need to make it with "peach" or "flesh" coloured bricks?

(...) The helmet isn't quite as sturdy as the 3723 hat, but it's pretty sturdy. I've put it on and taken it off a few times, but only once were there any problems. I think two bricks fell off the bottom of it. The tip of the spear falls off if (...) (22 years ago, 28-Dec-02, to lugnet.build.sculpture)

Very nice, Andrew! Much better than 3723. Your standard smiley face is right on whereas the other one has a huge mouth and the eyes are not quite right. Your spear is most impressive. I also don't have that many brown pieces. Wow! I am also (...) (22 years ago, 27-Dec-02, to lugnet.build.sculpture)

I just finished making a sculpture of a Black Falcon minifigure. I was inspired by Joel Bedger's minifigure sculptures. It's based on LEGO's 3723 Minifigure sculpture. (URL) (22 years ago, 27-Dec-02, to lugnet.announce.moc, lugnet.build.sculpture, lugnet.castle)

Eric, awesome job! If I'm understanding all the posts correctly, this could be a jigzaw puzzle, right? The image is just made up of lots of smaller, and not really connected, parts?
