Lettuce Patch

Post by Lord Scuba »

My first vig posted on the CC forums, so be nice! Please?

A Peasant farmer collects his yearly crop of lettuce, while a pesky rat gets a free feast.

This is actually part of a much larger project I've got planned for over the summer... *Cough* Farm *Cough*

C & C would be very welcome.

The green hair is used as lettuce in Market Street. Of course, that design came after the hair was already in use as hair.

That is a great use for that hair. It looks just like you want it, rows upon rows of lettuce.

Good luck with the farm.

Still a very inventive use. A very cool little MOC

HAHAHAHA!
THAT'S SO AWESOME!
I actually thought the exoforce minifigs were a waste of money, but I got to admit, I was wrong.
You really got me to change my perception with this MOC. Man, I got to get me some of those hairpieces.
Those hairpieces, all lined up like that, they really make it look like a real cabbage patch! Thanks for sharing this with us!
