    The Horse Trader —Josh Wedin
   Hey All, Here is my newest MOC. (URL) is the local horse trader and his stable. It is supposed to be an old ruined stone building that he acquired and repaired somewhat. He added the space for and office and fixed the roof. Anyway, let me your (...) (21 years ago, 17-Apr-03, to lugnet.castle)
   
        Re: The Horse Trader —John P. Henderson
     (...) Looks nice, Josh. When I first looked at the third image you have, I thought it had a basement level, but it was the reflection in the glass table. :) I like the basic feel of the model, and it does seem to be a formerly ruined building of (...)

         Re: The Horse Trader —Josh Wedin
     (...) Thanks. (...) I took pics of my last few MOCs on top of my glass display cases in my dining room (full of lego, of course). I don't think I will do that again. They all mostly turned out a bit confusing. I took one picture of a mini-fig that (...) (21 years ago, 17-Apr-03, to lugnet.castle)
   
        Re: The Horse Trader —Benjamin Ellermann
     Hi Josh, I really like how you have used an old building and converted it for a new function. You have diverse unrealistic vegetation - pine trees, deciduous trees, and sagebrush all together (please ignore my tree comment above ;) Good job. This (...)

         Re: The Horse Trader —Josh Wedin
      (...) Hi Ben, (...) Thanks, I am glad you like how it turned out. I like converting old stuff into new stuff. I do it a lot in "real" life (whatever that is), so I thought why not have this mini-fig do the same. (...) Dang it, I forgot to put a (...) (21 years ago, 17-Apr-03, to lugnet.castle)
   
        Re: The Horse Trader —Matt Hein
     (...) Hey, Josh...so far it looks like you caught the 'run down but recently revamped' look pretty well. The only part that really don't seem congruous was the fence (since white creates too much contrast against the green and grey, diverting the (...) (21 years ago, 18-Apr-03, to lugnet.castle)
    
         Re: The Horse Trader —Josh Wedin
     Thanks Matt. You are right about the fence, but it was all I had. I will probably rebuild it if I get enough brown spindle pieces. Build On, Josh (...) (21 years ago, 19-Apr-03, to lugnet.castle)
   
        Re: The Horse Trader —Nathan Todd
     (...) Hi Josh, Nice! I like your idea of revamped space... I did a few MOCs like that a long time ago (no pics). The only thing I would change is the white fence... As to the plants, I can vouch there is a good variety in Washington State (I used to (...) (21 years ago, 18-Apr-03, to lugnet.castle)
    
         Re: The Horse Trader —Josh Wedin
     Hey Nathan, Thanks for comments. I like doing the revamped building stuff. Your old mill is kind the same isn't it? An old mill now used as a dwelling? That is cool that you used to live Bellingham. I live just 30 minutes south of Bellingham, in (...) (21 years ago, 19-Apr-03, to lugnet.castle)

        Re: The Horse Trader —Twan Theeuwen
   Hi Josh, (...) Examined it and I liked it. You succeeded well in creating the impression that this was once a larger stucture, for example a fortress. Over time turned into ruins and partly renovated by the horse trader who now uses it for his own (...) (21 years ago, 22-Apr-03, to lugnet.castle)
