Yeah, yeah.... more vignettes. But these were simple to build.

Nelson, did I mention that you're a genius? :P

These are brilliant.

Clark is too funny, and really good. I'm impressed at how good you got the colouring of his outfit.

Little House is just inspired. :lol:

Venetian Football....awesome.

Man, you're on fire this week! All of these are funny, but Venetian Football totally cracked me up. As always, I can't wait to see more!

*gasping for air*

THese are aweome. I am a huge soccer player/fan, so that one gives me a pretty good laugh.

*in a thoughtful tone* I wish I had a didgital camera so I could take pictures of all my MOCs.*sigh*

Antwoosle, I have never seen any wounds quite that bad. The worst injury in soccer I witnessed was to one of my friend's brothers. His shinguard splintered into his shin *whince*. He had to have a bar to replace the bone for 5 years...

Back to the Vignettes, I haven't read/saw/whatever the first two vignettes, so I'll take other peoples word on those... I like the last one, although I'm not sure what exactly Venetian Football is. Is it kind of like Water Polo?

These are all really great. Sir Clark of Kent is great, though simple; Little House on the Prairie is just funny; Legitimate Red Card is great; and Venetian Football is hilarious.

I'll take on the role of straight man:

Sir Clark of Kent... Clark Kent... Superman...

Little House on the Prairie is the name os a popular novel by Laura Ingals Wilder. The joke is in the size of the house in the vig.

Venice is a town of canals. The town is below water level, and the houses are basically built on pilars... they are playing football (soccer in the US).

Sir Clark: The focus here is on the minifig, and you've really captured the spirit of Superman in medieval form!

Little House: Awesome micro-scene! I used to build little towns like this from all my bricks and roof pieces. Good times...

Red Card: Yeah, that's a red card. :shock: (Love the red hair.)

Futbol! Simple. Effective. Hilarious. (The goal posts are wonderfully Venitian, and I like the splash effect around the minifig in the front.)

Hey Nelson,

More great vigs. I particularly like your choices on the Superman one. I vaguely remember a comic where he went back in time and looked a lot like that (or maybe it was a Superfriends episode?). Great microfig house also.

These are all really funny - especially the two football ones (I'm still a little bitter about all the diving recently). I really like that "Sir Kent" - not only is it funny, it actually looks pretty cool! That might be a good character for a story or MOC... although the whole Man of Steel thing kind of makes you wonder what the armor is all about. :)

Anyway, very funny stuff - the little house on the prarie had me chuckling too~
