Re: CCC Prizes Poll

Here is an example of the shirts. This one is not perfect. I have since perfected them. But I figure a little excitement is a good thing.

Re: Save the Date: CCC XX

I always try to include and remember what it is like to be a new builder or someone with a small collection. Like me... I hope I'm good enough this year. I'm already building, even though I don't know the categories :roflol: Just know this...when it comes to judging, if a build has been retro-fitte...

Re: Save the Date: CCC XX

20 years is something special. We're trying to make it as special. I always try to include and remember what it is like to be a new builder or someone with a small collection. I remember being intimidated to enter the CCC. So when we start planning and picking, I include that. We try not to repeat c...

Re: Is anyone good at editing images?

Nope. All I have is the image at the top of the page. I know we have it in the "how to" section but I don't know if it is a high resolution version. I need it in SVG, but I know how to convert it. The colors do not covert the way I need them.

Is anyone good at editing images?

Hey all, I am in need of making that red/white/blue shield that is Classic Castle, edited so the colors are missing. Basically I need the shield with only outlines of the 3 shapes. I am freely admitting that I do not have the knowledge to do it. The only ways I know how to do it are sloppy and will ...

CCC Prizes Poll

Hey everyone, Yes, I am working on CCC in...July (actually I was working on it in June but I didn't post until today so..yay July!) And I have a question about prizes.

Re: 10305 Lion Knight's castle.

Also, when I saw the price for this set, it really put me off. :twitch: :mad: Why does it feels that LEGO is somehow creating this scarcity on the LEGO Castle, much like how those luxury brands are doing. They know people will stil buy at this expensive price! But this set will somehow be out of re...

Re: 10305 Lion Knight's castle.

I waited to spend time thinking about this before I replied. To be honest, this thrills me more than the MMV...now wait...do not panic, freak out or think I am losing my mind. Remember I don't build in grey. While the MMV was hands down the most epic castle set I can mention (yeah I did not like the...

Re: Which forestman figure do you see as RobinHood?

For me...it is all about the CMF one. He's so very much Erol Flynn and that is my favorite Robinhood.

CCC 19 - Wrap up post

I'm not sure that everything I want or need to say will make it into this post, but I will try. First, when I decided I was going to take over the CCC, it was like a week before the announcement would happen. That isn't a lot of time to scramble to get it all up and running. But I did my best. I am ...

I made a LOT of changes to this years CCC based on the things I have heard for over a decade. Thank all of you who participat...

I don't normally comment on MOC's because I'm usually too busy doing a million things but I need to tell you this. First, I am a HUGE Sleeping Beauty fan...HUGE. It was the first movie I watched with my parents. She's my favorite princess and my favorite princess movie. I adore almost all things Sle...
