New Records and Pages, plus news!!!!!

     News!!!!!!!
     I have reached my record amount of views in one day on my blog. 45 views! I have it set where it won't track my own views.
     Most of you are thinking, wow, that's practically none at all. Well, you're right, it is practically none at all. But I'm happy with it.
     I  have also formed a new page, an about me one, which can be viewed on the side, over there, to the right, thing.
     Also, if you have a Twitter or Facebook, you can share by clicking up top, to the right, under "Share It".
     I also have a search box now, so you can search some topics you like.
     I will be posting a new creation on July 2nd, so keep your eyes open for that!
     I have submitted this blog to the "Brother's Brick", so this blog might be posted on their site under "Lego Blogs in English".
     So, that's all the news I have. I hope you enjoy the new setup of my blog!!!

The LOTR 3 Contest Is Here: And I'm Competing!

     I have exciting news for all of you people who are Lego builders out there. The Lord of the Rings: Return of the Kings competition, hosted by Ian Spacek, is here! The competition is played out by building a LOTR creation and posting to the group for the contest. It has to be done on an 8x8 baseplate and there can be no stud overhang.

     I have already built my MOC for the contest, but it will receive third place at best. It's not very good, and I'm even considering taking it apart and making another one. It will be posted on July 2nd, the day that the contest starts.

     But this is a milestone for me, my first contest!!!! I hope it gets third!!!!!

     On another, more sad note, I went to look at Tennessee Lugnet today(that is a site where people talk about building and upcoming conventions), and no one has posted a comment in FOUR YEARS. So there goes me being active in Tennessee Lugnet.

     I suppose I have enough on my hands, given managing two blogs, a MocPages account, building for contests, and just living my life. I am such a nerd.

     Well, hopefully tomorrow I will have something more interesting to talk about.

     Bye!!!!!!!!

*Squawk* Dont Eat Me!!!

     It's time for another post!
     I was supposed to post this tomorrow, but I simply couldn't control myself.
     You might also notice I'm writing these sentences in paragraphs, so, there.
     You're asking why I'm doing this?
     Because I'm crazy.
     Anyway, I made a model a few days ago about a scene in Pirates of the Caribbean: Dead Man's Chest. It is where a poor Will stumbles upon a parrot in a jungle, where he is looking for his friends so he can steal their most treasured possessions.
     Will smiles at it. "Ah, a familiar face!"
     The parrot squawks "Don't eat me!"
     "I'm not going to eat you," Will lies easily.

It's kind of a simple scene, really. Just Will talking to a parrot in a dense jungle. So yeah.

A simple view of the back of Will and the model. I made the trees so you know that they are there, but I don't have the pieces to cover them with palm branches and even if I did, you wouldn't be able to see the scene. They're taller than that, anyway.

My favorite part of this scene is the foliage on the ground. I tried to make it as thick as possible, and I think it turned out pretty well.

It turns out that the Island De Pelegostos set is one of my favorites! I like the dead looking palm branches! You can see a way I have used this piece if you scroll past this next picture, pass the hideous pictures of that strange vehicle, and then there it is.

A basic shot of Will. He is my favorite minifig in the Pirates of the Caribbean line so far.

So that winds up this blog post. I hope you like this creation. Most likely, more POTC to come!!!!!

My ABSOLUTELY HORRIBLE Power Functions Vehicle!!!!!

     Well, I thought I knew how to build with Power Functions. I was introduced to Power Functions through a gift at Christmas, the motor set with lights, switches, and a m-motor, along with a battery box, of course. Most of you know it as the Lego Power Functions Motor Set, #8293.
     Well, after a few hours of overall frustration, I made this ugly thing:

It's HIDEOUS! My blood curls just thinking about this thing. It only runs about a half of a mile per-hour and breaks easily.

"You said we were supposed to go this way..............."

Ah, well. At least they're not being chased by a hoard of angry mummies on a motorcycle that want their golden Crystal of the Beasts back that the guy in the white shirt on the left seems to have stolen.

Things could be worse.

I am trying to draw traffic to this blog, but I'm failing miserably. It might be that I'm posting such ugly and useless stuff as this.

I'm back from vacation........well, new stuff time!!!!

     Well, I'm back from vacation!!!! It was kind of a long one, I know, but I'm back now, and I have stuff prepared for a post everyday for a while.
      On the way back from vacation, I read a book called "This World We Live In". It was a very sad book. But, anyway, it is about a girl's life in the world during an apocalypse, when the moon moves closer to earth when it is hit by an asteroid. This simple change brings tidal waves that destroy cities and earthquakes that destroy larger areas of the world. Volcanic ash covers the world so the blue sky is never seen and the plants start dying around them. Food becomes scarce, and of course, the girl's decision changes her family forever, blah blah blah, and it ends no better that it started. But it seemed like a perfect time to make an MOC, so I got up the morning after our getting back from our vacation and built this humble little scene.

I think it might actually be a good movie picture if they ever make this into a movie. I like the landscaoe much more than the girl, so here is a picture of it alone.

So I hope you enjoyed that!!!!! If you really do want to hear about my vacation, go to walkingonthenarrowpath.blogspot.com to see it. Thanks for reading!!!!

Some Cool Creations From Paul Vermeesch!!!!!

     Well, I finally have some of Paul Vermeesch's creations! He builds some biblical creations, but I don't don't know if he is a Christian(if you read my other blog, you know I'm Christian Baptist).
     The pictures don't do these models justice. I'm so sorry.

     Here is one of his creations, not exactly biblical but religious. It's called "The Pilgrim's Progress".

This IS one of his biblical creations. It's when Jesus clears the temple, predictably called "Clearing the Temple". I love it! P.S. I'm sorry I can't make the pictures any bigger, but it messes up the quality.

This is just one of his normal awesome creations, called "Route 66".

This is one of my favorite creations of his, called "Angry Birds"!!!!! Since I love Angry Birds and(I'm sorry, I'm being braggy) I'm in the Top 5% of all Angry Birds players in the world(I'm like 47,000th or something), this is one of my favorites.

And now, for Paul's most popular, "Einstein's Study"!!!!! I like it(love it).

Paul, thank you SO MUCH for letting me use your MOCs on my blog. Paul Vermeesch gets full credit for all five of these creations, and you can see his creations here: http://mocpages.com/home.php/54098

Thanks again Paul!

Something New After All The Boring Stuff.

     Well, I have abandoned this blog, and I'm ashamed. I have left my fellow followers hanging, and I'm sorry.
     BUT THERE'S GOOD NEWS!!!!!!
     I am working on cleaning up my Lego room, and I'm going to post pictures of what I'm building. Even the ones who are only half interested in my blog will want to see this, because it will show also some of my new projects that I haven't released to MocPages yet because they are not quite done, and you will get to see some models I will never post to MocPages, the type I will tear apart after awhile.
     I also asked Paul Vermeesch to allow me to show some of his models on MocPages onmy blog, and I hope he accepts! He builds wonderful stuff and I think he might say yes.
     That's all for this blog post, but expect more soon, VERY soon.
    

U.K.D.A.!!!!!!!!

     So, it has been a VERY long time since I have posted on this blog. But I have had good reason! I have made a group on MocPages called the United Kingdom Defense Association!!!

     It is an alternative group to Dawn Forge, and I don't know if you know what group that is. If you know, the group I made is the members of the U.K. deciding to defend Great Britain and the U.K. against Dawn Forge.

     I have been lacking on giving you all my MocPages account. Here it is: 

     http://www.mocpages.com/home.php/70925

     Lots of spaces! Anyway, that is my MocPages account stuff. To find my group go to mocpages.com and search "United Kingdom Defense Association" in the search box. Click on groups, and there it is! Feel free to join and add Lego creations!
