  Re: A Tree (New pictures)
 
Now that's simply stunning. Your perseverance has paid off; it's what those little trees can only dream of becoming. Of course now we want to see a forest, but that's inevitable when the bar gets raised like this. Thanks for sharing and keep (...) (21 years ago, 30-Apr-04, to lugnet.castle, FTX)
 
  Tolkien MOC links
 
Hi all, I've just gone through and done a massive update on my horribly-out-of-date list of on-line Tolkien MOCs. I'm sure there are cool things out there that I have overlooked, and also with some things I do not have the builder's name. If you (...) (21 years ago, 29-Apr-04, to lugnet.castle)

  Re: A Tree (New pictures)
 
(...) Very nice! Great to see a proper large tree in Lego. While I wait eagerly for the construction details, would you give some idea of the numbers of green leaf parts and the parts you used for trunk/branches? It looks like black 1x3 plates are (...) (21 years ago, 29-Apr-04, to lugnet.castle)

  Re: A Tree (New pictures)
 
Christian, A very nice tree. It's great to see people creating Lego constructions, especially in minifig scale, based on what they're like in real life, as opposed to what "Lego" versions of those things are traditionally like (official sets, etc.).
