Hey all,
After a few weeks on Backorder, I finally got my orange bricks from the
halloween pack.  I used the Orange bricks to make rock formations akin to
the ones found in the southwest american deserts.  I was going for a "Big
Thunder Mountain" feel.  Here are the pics.  LMKWYT.  Jon

Gah.... Jon! Stop building! I can't keep up with all the pictures!! ;)

Again, great work, man.

I wouldn't have thought to use orange for mesa's... that's sheer genuis....
Wile E. Coyote Super Genius type genius even. Which I must kick myself for..
I mean I've watched Wile E. Coyote chase Road Runner around  in the backdrop
of (gasp) _orange_ mesa's for as long as I can remember. Why it didn't dawn
on me to consider orange bricks in the same way... well.. I guess it's
because my ACME salesman is some loud mouthed duck that won't take no for an
answer and demanded that I shoot him because it was rabbit season...

Ahem...

Well done, sir.  Very well indeed - the cacti and the use of the 'prefab'
mesa's in the background give your scene a very great "feel".

Now... where's that new ACME catalogue....
