Brick Builder Snarf

So I recently got a minifigure with a camera accessory and I thought it might be cool to take some pictures of them taking pictures of the world around us.  Photo sets like these give me the cool 4th wall feeling as the toy and real world around us come together. It's a good visualization of what can happen when your hobbiest try to manifest themselves in everyday life. One picture from our point of view, another from their point of view.

I'm back at it again with the Jungle theme from the LEGO City series. This time I did the "Jungle Starter Kit" which is set #60157. I had previously done the "Jungle Buggy" build and this one seems to have the same feel and characters. I really liked this set because I got a few cool things from it. I now have a camera piece that I can use which will be a great and fun addition when I am taking photos because I will be able to incorporate it into my photo shoots for even more inclusion. I also got a minifigure headpiece that has two facial expressions so I can use this when I want to change the mood of a character as the scene calls for. With all that being said, I tried to include some of the elements mentioned above in this shoot. Hopefully, you can see what I am talking about and will get as much enjoyment from it as I did putting it together and staging it.

Brick-Venture? So I've been thinking of finding a new way to create some interesting content. My "Let's Build" and "Time-Lapse" videos only reach to certain interest groups and I know it isn't for everyone. I was thinking of collecting some Minifigures and beginning to take pictures of them out in the real world. I have seen many LEGO Photographers do projects like this while out and about in their daily lives. It's sometimes fun to pose a minifigure in a real-life setting and see what sort of crazy shots you can take with them. I feel this would a great way to share the love of LEGO in a real-life setting while giving some insight as to what my wife and I do in our daily lives. It might seem childish but this whole blog is somewhat dedicated to the quirky and childish craft of LEGO and bricks in general. If this is indeed something I go forward with, be on the lookout for LEGO minifigures in crazy places doing some silly things. And be su...
