MOC: Don't feed the dragons....

Don't feed the dragons.... by Trevor Van Aalst, on Flickr
Last year at year at Brickcon, Josh put one of his dragons on my castle with it's head stuck in a door. Image

We discussed how funny it would be if there were flames shooting out all the windows. This is the result. A pretty fun build that I thought would work nicely as my installation in the LUG showcase window at my LEGO store.

Trust me, I think I'm funnier than you do.
Why do I have to add the word "minifig" to my spell checker every time I use it?!

I remember you talking about this idea at BrickCon. It really cracks me up :D Great stuff!
The only thing I'm missing is flames spewing out the windows as well.

Agreed that would make this an incredible idea. Great work none the less.

A relative simple vignette that really comes to live through the scene.
Great job.

Fun scene. Nice tree too, I like the light slant to the trunk.

I agree with Karrde, about the tree. And the round tower and brown roof look really nice too. Oh, and it's funny!

Let me guess, this is also a reminder to LEGO to make more 'scared' heads. :tasty:
Some folk we never forget
Some kind we never forgive
Haven’t seen the back of us yet
We’ll fight as long as we live

Thanks everyone, this was one of my quickest and most fun builds ever. I think I learned a new roof style as I don't think I've ever seen one like this (the guts of it I mean, not the tiles ;))
