Mishaps and Bubble Wrap

Oh hey, this is on the front page for news!

Here are my BrickCon 2012 images from the Sunday public day! While it was an interesting convention and I was able to see some really fantastic sculptures in person that I'd been following online for a while, I do not think I would attend BrickCon as a full convention-goer.

As usual, if you would like to use one of my photos (ie., if it is of you, it is your MOC, etc.), please PM me first, so I can keep track of where my photos are being used. Thank you!

Her are my BrickFair 2012 images! They, like my Bricks Cascade 2012 photos, are a random smattering of MOC photos, photobombing, more Kevin Hinkle and Black Six hanging out, travel adventures to outside of Chantilly, VA, and more.

In other news, my computer broke, got a new one, phone got really old, got a new one, got more LEGO, got a job, had a birthday, went to Canada, and a bunch of other stuff happened too.

These are my Bricks Cascade 2012 images! They are sort of a random smattering of photos, ranging from photobombing to MOC photos to Black Six and Kevin Hinkle hanging out (IT'S A CONSPIRACY).

The only thing I ask is that if you want to use one of my photos (if it is of you or a photo of one of your MOCs), then please PM me and ask first, so I can keep track of where they are being used.

Hi everyone! I am at BrickFair with a ton of other people right now, and I found out that my Nike running shoe MOC is nominated for Best Sculpture! This is pretty freakin' sweet, as I'm really proud of how this MOC turned out, especially since it was my first real venture into a more traditional style LEGO build.

If you are at BrickFair and are registered, if you could please go in to your account, go to the tab that says "Brickees" and vote for my shoe as Best Sculpture, that would be really great and it would mean a LOT to me.

IT'S ONE AM.

AWESOME.

A BUNCH OF DAYS UNTIL BRICKFAIR.

A FORTNIGHT UNTIL BRICKFAIR.

Hey guys, give me some suggestions for the art/mosaic/sculpture award categories for Bricks Cascade. I'm coordinating that theme, but based on info I've been given/my experience coordinating the Other category at BrickFair, it's going to be art-like things such as mosaics and sculptures, but there will also be a bunch of other random stuff that doesn't really fit anywhere else. Like tapeworms.

Right now categories I have as ideas are:
-best mosaic (will be a category for sure)
-best sculpture (also will be a category for sure)
-best vignette (same with this one. These first three are auto-ins)
-best/most artistic
-best use of colour
-best MOC based on a franchise
-best/most random thing
-best/most abstract

So, please suggest nixings or suggest category ideas as you see fit. I don't want to have a ton of categories, but I also don't want to leave something blatantly obvious out. It's kind of hard to judge when there's very few registered MOCs for Bricks Cascade, so deciding on things like "best  franchise-based MOC" is pretty hard to decide. I've been looking at the BrickFair categories and they tend to keep it pretty clean and tight with the categories and I would like to mimic that here.
