I love cross polinating from theme to theme, and since the paradisa theme

Definitely, I love taking pirates and even town pieces into castle. Of
course, I'm a little close minded in that I stick my creations to a mostly
Castle era. :-) But I definitely want to have MOCs for other themes when I
get the money to invest in them...

I also use several belville and scala
implements, I hope that Lego continues in the direction they are heading in
(mini-fig wise), by giving us some females in less traditional roles.

Likewise! However, they should also correspond to that by appropriately
marketing to girls. Girls *don't* just love dolls and faires. Minifig scale
towns and castles with a less violent slant would be great.

although female warriors were historically few, I like the Princess Storm
fig. Not all the midevil ladies were "in waiting" and I love how you made
Scar so Uber-tough, yet sassy and feminine!

Thanks! Part of what made Scar that way was the awesome reaction I got from
everyone on lugnet, and the image that sort-of formed itself... I love her
myself, but I'm not so sure what *she* thinks about *me* - I've already put
down tons of her plans to murder this or that character or to take over that
realm... <grin> She must be furious at me... waving her fist at me every
time I turn around... ;-)

I always appreciate the compliments of people who's work I admire, thanks
for your comments Shiri, It's very encouraging!  Jon

Hey, you just complimented me back, so we're even. ;-)

Have a great day,
-Shiri
