We got the same idea, I'm still working on mine.

It's always interesting to see different takes on a similar idea

Nice! I'm sure yours will be a little more refined

To be completely transparent, I didn't have much time this week aside from a brief hour tonight so I threw together some jellyfish. Not based off any specific ones, just came to mind after visiting the Baltimore Aquarium earlier this week since they're transparent.

It's been fun building with y'all this year... another great year of builds from some very talented builders!!

Laying under a tree on a bright summer's day, Gus imagines life after he, a simple farmer's boy, slays a dragon, takes its wealth to the castle, and marries the princess. Unfortunately those dreams are somewhat detached from reality, yet still he daydreams.

“Help Spark-y the fire-dog! When you’re care-ful, then your’re real-ly smart; so never give fire a place to start!” - Sparky's song, 1960s

Sparky the Fire Dog is the official Dalmatian mascot of the National Fire Protection Association (NFPA) and 2026 is his 75th anniversary!

Learn more about him through the years! (this was based of the 2000s version)

Looking at the possessions, riches, or power of others can make you envious or greedy, emotions often associated with the color green. You can quickly be sucked into this emotion and let it take you over as it whispers in your ear and continues to grow like a weed.

Somewhat inspired by the VeggieTales Rumor Weed

the word "draft" has a lot of meanings! A draft of wind can blow some paper drafts. A draft horse can be found in the fields or Uncle Sam can call up a military draft. Old school drafters would use a drafting table with a slide rule. Even older is a draft of beer or ale, straight from the barrel. I drafted a few tablescraps of these meanings with a carpenter's pencil on some graph paper.

That's a cute build! The alien and cow will be good friends me thinks

Great little harvester build too!

Thanks! Maybe all the alien wanted was a friend

No angels this week, but still taking to the skies with a cute little UFO abducting a cow from above.

Blue can be a color of sadness, but also one of peace/comfort. I tried to combine these emotions in another symbolic build, this time inspired by a VBS song from my childhood:
"
Woke up this morning, feeling kinda blue,
A little sad, but I know just what to do.
I have learned, that I can go to Jesus
He lifts me up, whenever I need it
"

Initially I was thinking at a minifigure scale scene with two wizards, but it turned into this. Looking forward to see your build

I originally thought of the two blue istari wizards mentioned in lotr, but it morphed into another more symbolic build with no wizards

This was my first idea too but it has quickly morphed into something completely different...

"Wretched man that I am! Who will deliver me from this body of death?" - Rom 7:24

A brick built meditation of how fragile humans are and our nature to fall into sin...Praise God we have a savior in Jesus!
