Seems like the vignette craze has slowed down a little bit... I, myself, have been distracted by the CCC3. I have, however, been thinking about this vignette for a little while and threw it together tonight: "Don't look at the lights. There was a (...)

(...) I was there then, *and* I'm here now, so I have time travelled in the opposite direction. It takes longer, and you grow old from doing it, but it's fun. :) I wouldn't enjoy going back to basic 1970's Lego either. I only miss those small (...)

Hi, Pictures are here: (URL) call this an "almost Joe Vig" vignette because I built it with the intent of entering it in a Joe Vig contest but I never got around to buying the proper pieces to build a "correct" Joe Vig minifig (on top of not having (...)

I like the chandelier (electric? gas globes? they're not candles) and the easel. A very heavy-duty easel, that is -- must be designed for volumes of the OED, not just piddly scrolls. :) It needs a spider crawling around the ceiling. And an (...)

Great, and timely, MOC Bruce! The single wheel is a little surreal but all in all the section bus concept is well executed. Thanks for sharing and God Bless, Nathan Visit my brickshelf gallery: (URL) (pic=link) (19 years ago, 3-Nov-05, to lugnet.build.vignette, FTX)

Hey Nate, Great little scene. I love the easel, especially, and that's a great use of the new printed tile. I also really liked how you did the windows of ever-increasing length - it really emphasizes the long axis of the model well. (URL) blogged> (...)

Hey Brendan, That is a really great vignette. I love how they constructed pumpkins from plates and the unique roof design, especially. I don't know who the builder is, though, or whether or not they read lugnet. Bruce (19 years ago, 2-Nov-05, to lugnet.build.vignette, FTX)
