19 – The Choice || Mint Condition

No rant for this comic.

Well, today we get to listen to me blab about my other hobby… Legos!

You know, those little interlocking plastic pieces that you can build stuff out of? Yeah, those are Legos for you gamers and other people who don’t know what Legos are.

So I’ve been a fan of Legos since I was… well, very young. Recently I came out of a ‘Dark Ages’ where I had about my entire collection just stacked away in some corner and started to put together all these old sets. It’s amazing how things get disorganized and/or lost during the course of some five years or so. When I was younger, my mom stressed the fact that I should try to keep the sets together – and of course, I didn’t listen. Now I’m paying, and being entertained at the same time.

Just last week I actually finally finished sorting all the loose parts that I could find around the house. I’ve been able to get some 40-50% of all the sets I own back together and complete some superior-to-when-I-was-really-young MOC’s (An abbreviation for ‘My Own Creation’ which is a cheesy term for ‘custom’), mainly trains.

Really, I think building with Legos goes along the same path as drawing, it’s this “Let’s build what we can’t get in real life” sort of idea that shows up in my drawing as well. That isn’t to say you have to be at one to do the other, but I think they complement each other.

Alright, there was some really bad logic and grammar back there, but for lack of anything to say, I give you:

*fanfare* My Brickshelf Gallery!!!

(There’s only worthwhile stuff in the Trains folder, so just ignore the rest of the crap)

And have a nice day!!!
