Plumber
For LOLUG’s April Iron builder, I took the bun seed piece quite literally. This MOC features a man in a less than flattering position fixing a sink.

LEGOLAND Castle Revisited
I recreated the classic LEGOLAND (Yellow) castle in tan and put in on a rocky outcrop for the Classic Castle Contest XVI’s Classic Castle Category.
I kept the main castle features, including the three towers, gatehouse, drawbridge and buttresses. The largest change I made (other than the color) was to enclose the back tower.
