Mrs. Fargon says somebody had some quality time on thier hands.

This dude has a lot of talent. The picture on his homepage is mind boggling to me.

The bottom of dar512 's first link gave me some perspective of size/scale. I never had Lego as a child. Sad. Think I'll try it now.

Sorry for asking right here in the thread, but I haven't found satifying answers yet.

Where do I submit images I think could be worth posting?

Does the archive mention all previous IotD:s? That is, is it enough to search for duplicates on that page? http://cellar.org/iotdarch.php

Thanks!

The archive does in fact list them all. images to undertoad at gmail.com as attachments. The only rule is that you must never be offended if your image isn't used.

Not using your submission doesn't mean he doesn't like it. However, coming to your house and slapping you, probably does. :lol:

These people amaze me. Coming up with a picture in your mind is one thing. Knowing all the possibilities with the myriad of LEGO sets is another. There is still a great gulf in between them.

maybe it's just me but those upside down, rightside up, diaganol stairways paintings and pictures always made me dizzy to look at them. Like a really old school optical illusion, gone bad.

Mav, tilt your head 45 degrees to the right. ;)

huh... i guess the impossible staircase wasn't all that impossible.

pretty amazing craftsmanship on both guys' parts. o) my favorite part of the lego version is the lego person closest to the top right corner. he's the only one where you can completely see his smiling lego face thing.

I love Escher, but am mildly indifferent to Lego. I appreciate ingenuity and skill in construction, however.

Oh, _that's_ what he meant! I found it really strange, just coming to my house, slapping away like that.

There are only a few sure things in life. If you have small children you will eventually have Legos and if you have Legos you will on some night go into your child's dark room and step on the Legos with your bare feet! :bawling: :shock: :evil3:

It's incredible to see this in Legos, but i would love to see it done in full size!

:rotflol:

Oh, you'll fit right in, Bromkloss. Welcome! :lol2:

This can be another very educational aspect to life with Legos. In an "advanced vocabulary" sort of way. [/voice of experience]

There's a guy in MI that builds model skyscrapers with jenga (wooden) blocks then has people pull out blocks until they collapse.
His Leaning Tower of Pisa was rigged with a wire around the supports at the bottom. When a reporter circled the tower dragging a microphone cable, they yanked the wire making it look like the reporter accidentally toppled the tower.

Check it out here and here. :D

Oooooor you can go over to this thread
