(...) Nice work Peter. Seems very close to the orginial. Do you own the orginial or just base it off pictures? How did the crowd like it? The snow on the front is indeed nicely done. I wonder if the slopes on the side couldn't be raised one plate to (...) (22 years ago, 25-Nov-02, to lugnet.fun.holiday)

Greg, that minifig graveyard is really great. Love the tombstone conrstuction, and those bare trees (with roots even!) are beautiful. I'm curious where you acquired all those stone wall bricks for the outer wall of the graveyard. I have a few from (...) (22 years ago, 23-Nov-02, to lugnet.fun.holiday)

Very nice pumpkin patch. Have you tried putting the patch on a brown or tan base? The contrast might help show off the vines better. It's hard to judge from the photos how well they stand out in person against the green, so maybe it's not an issue. (...) (22 years ago, 18-Sep-02, to lugnet.fun.holiday)
