Hello again, this is my second entry, again it is a duplo MOC. This time for the farm category.

I just wanted to catch a rural farming scene by a stream.

Like my castle the creation is about the Duplo... simplicity, innocence, playability. (I had to shoo my 9 year old away with a broom to get take the photos, Duplo is wasted on toddlers

)

Great duplo creation. Looks very realistic, especially for duplo.

On a related note, why can't we get minifigure scale farm animals when duplo gets herds of them?

It looks great. Very nice job; it makes me want to experiment in Duplo.

I find it funny that Duplo gets arrow slits, farm animals, (still) pitchforks...

*sigh*

Thanks

I am going to be honest, one of the reasons I am turning to Duplo is because I have Lego piled up in boxes everywhere, and when I start building it makes such a mess of the house. As my Duplo collection is only a bit over a month old, I don't have that problem yet

And it is such jolly good fun to play with.

Wow, I build with duplo a bit myself (having a 3 year old daughter) and I have to say this is one impressive structure, especially the sloped roof. Well done, very different.

So are you, like, making duplo orders through Bricklink, Anita? That's when you know you have got it bad. (Not that I do

Oh dear, I do have it bad *blush*

And thank you.

Another great DUPLO creation. I love how it has the DUPLO feel to it while still maintaining a nice, sophisticated feel. Great work!

I am not a fan of Duplo because I feel it sort of looks weird, but I think this is still a well crafted creation.

Thanks

I have ordered a book about amazing middle ages women so hopefully my next Duplo creation will be an event.
