amazingly cool! i like the story! and also how you really managed to capture
the essence of a psuedo-arabian world.. but i must ask, how many harry potter
sets did you have to buy to get all those turbans? it seems like they're twenty
or more. i'm sure you just reused some and it looks more than there really is,
but i must say!
now a serious question: could you please explain the internal construction of
those tents? they look really good but somewhat easier on the brick usage (ive
seen some tent designs that look great but take a plethora of rare bricks and
slopes).
thanks for sharing!

| Hi Lenny, (...) Well, I have 10 of them, but since I'm running the german auction site for new LEGO elements, it's very easy to get the parts I want for my creations. I wish there would be more different colours of the turbans, I hope TLC will (...) (22 years ago, 27-Jun-02, to lugnet.castle)
