:D

Pac- Thanks! I'm just sorry I made you try to find the set. :wink:

DARKspawn- I was actually waiting until I got some of my other MOCs together, but I just didn't feel like waiting any longer to post this. I hope my other entries don't dissapoint, I have been having lots of fun building. :P

Recluce- Good point. Maybe tomorrow I'll snap a couple shots with the figs in the scene rather than outside it.

Kelderic- Apple trees are pretty small, we have a few and only one is pretty large. (Not sure if it's because of the variety of the tree or the age..) Thanks for the nice comment!

plucky-
they're a great height for picking!
Of coarse, how else could that Forestman have gotten his apple. :wink:
My backdrop is only a small sheet of paper, so I am not sure what I will to with my larger MOCs. Come to think of it I think I have a yellow poster-board somewhere.

Moroder- Thanks for giving me a nice score!
I love the way you built this "set" only with basic bricks and old elements.
Thanks, I thought it would look more Classic this way. I only wish Lego would try to incorperate more basic brick in their sets these days.

Thanks to everyone else as well, I was pretty surprised to see the attention my little creation attracted. :P

10 points for the presentation of the model! :D
I think a good presentation of the model is half of the work :wink:
It looks nice, and cute indeed. Well done! :D

Awsome! It's simple but it looks great, and like others have said, it looks like a real set. :D

PJ- Thank you very much, I have been having alot of fun making my creations look like sets. :)

Panther- Thanks! I think simplicity is key for Lego sets, in many alot of cases the less special or pre-formed parts, the better in my opinion.

Also, put the minifigs in the scene apon Emily's request:

There are two other angles of that shot in the full gallery.

Thought I had replied to this ; )
If this were a real set I could just picture the queues outside toy stores: a bunch of kids waiting for their new console and a few ragged adults ready to begin hoarding this beauty...

God Bless,

Nathan
