My sig is 240x177, 20 KB. I thought that was in compliance but I guess I'll resize it.

How inconsiderate of me. This thread brought smiles to children's faces. I would hardly deem it pointless, but thanks for putting it where it belongs.

A gremlin ate the other thread, so I started a new one here.

Sneak preview of the Vader prototype...

I totally agree Cappy. I just got my brickarms arsenal in and absolutely love them. The guns that do come with the Mates are way to small for my taste as well.

I found this site while searching for 1:24 scale buildings. Looks like some painting and assembly required, but they look good. http://www.coloradomodel.com/bldgg.htm

Recent mini hauling from ebay user dm1989.

Chain whip!!!

Pete is right. Light is key to making a good picture. I prefer natural light but I'm not opposed to shooting under tungsten/fluorescent. Another thing that can make any shot from any camera look good is Photoshop. I almost always do post processing is PS. Another suggestion I should make regarding people using the on board flash on their cameras, is to diffuse it somehow. Either hold a coffee filter or an envelope over the flash to soften it a bit. It takes some experimenting, but you get a not so "washed out" looking shot.

@buttheadsmate, Yes it is a pretty pricey setup. I was able to get the lens for a good price on ebay. Are you thinking of upgrading to a DSLR?

Zap-A-Gap time!

@hypno, Thanks a lot. I do spend quite a bit of time with photography. Glad to see it becoming something people get a kick out of.

Threw this together for fun today. Legos and Mates are a harmonious match.

@Pete,Your customs look great. I especially like that Ash. nice work.

The guns are from http://www.brickarms.com/, which I highly recommend!

Here is the 60's Corgi Batmobile to give you an example of 1:24. I have to take their feet off so they fit in there good.

Not sure about buildings, but as far as vehicles go look for things in 1:24 scale. While that scale is not perfect I find it more in scale than 1:18.

His bruteness...

Penguin and Clayface have infiltrated the bat cave.

My bad for the thread necroing. At least no thread necrophilia was committed. That would be really messed up.
