   Hey All!

Thought I’d share one of my latest creations with everybody, the Tazmainian Devil from Looney Tunes!

http://www.brickshelf.com/cgi-bin/gallery.cgi?f=108153

This was a fun one to make as I’m a HUGE fan of the Looney Tunes classic cartoons.


That’s a great rendition of Taz in brick! Just curious; did you use this part: at the ankles to get the feet at the right rotation?

Thanks for the comments! In the prototype I used 2 black 2x2 turntable plates. But since that part isn’t made in brown (for the general public anyway), I used a well placed jumper with 1x2 tiles next to it for extra support. Then I was able to “spin” the feet into the right position. It wasn’t super sturdy, but it held together without glue. Of course for the finished model, it was glued and reinforced with screws!

I like your idea with the brick you have shown, but I would of had to slightly redesign the legs in brick to accomodate the post, rather than all the plate I did use.

(URL) made in brown? Not available to general public? Bricklink has 55 lots available for sale mate. ;-) I have no idea what people are talking about, really! :-D Cheers ...
