I just got finished with my last easter egg, so I posted the pictures on
Brickshelf.com.

http://www.brickshelf.com/cgi-bin/gallery.cgi?f=334

I had a lot of fun building these and trying to come up with different ways
of "coloring" them.  The plain egg (#1) only took about 25 minutes to build
and the confetti egg (#12)took about 2 1/2 hours to build.  All of the eggs
are the same shape.  Only a couple are hollow, most of the rest nee a lot more
internal structure and support to pull off the design.  All of them use only
bricks, except number 10 which uses 8 1x2 beams and 4 friction pegs.

Please LMK which ones are your favorites and if you have any other coloring
patterns for next year's eggs.

P.S. This has pretty much used up my creative juices for a while, so I'll
probably get back to sorting and inventorying pieces.  :)
