I've been working on and off since last October on a camel with rider,
dimensions 8"w x 22"l x 30" high. I thought a camel would be a challenge because
the legs are so spindly; this is the first piece I've built with a Technic
armature (mostly a bridge inside the torso).

I make no claim that the clothing and camel rug resemble either Bedouin or
biblical textiles, but they were interesting to build.
The camel will be at Brickfest but I won't, alas....

The legs look perfect, and I'm sure they're sturdy as well--the intricacy of the patterns is really excellent set against the constantcy of the camel's tone. Any indication of how extensive the armature is? (...) (21 years ago, 5-Aug-03, to lugnet.build.sculpture)
