Hey!
Here's my first CCCV entry (that I've released, anyway!) inspired by Josh's Troll Farm (http://www.brickshelf.com/cgi-bin/gallery.cgi?f=285666 ~ give credit where credit is due!)
This depicts a troll den ~ and the Papa Troll is very lazy, and the kids do all the work. One Troll Child washes clothes by hand, while the other skins a rabbit. The poor baby is crying: yes, another use for that mandrake head!
I've been making some BL orders for my CCCV entries, but I picked up some extra Scala elements for the heck of it, so I guess I found a good use for them (rug, bottles on the shelf and Papa Troll's pants.) Why not, right? I'm always game for trying something new.

Very nice creation. I like the use of the Nesquik rabbit: clever idea!

Cool, I like it! I think we are on the verge of inventing a new theme: "A Troll's Life"!
I was going to ask why the one is skinning the rabbit up on a shelf, but then I thought, "Why not, they're trolls...".
Build On,

That seems quite likely actually (after the cool troll farm)... and why not? It's so cool!JoshWedin wrote:Cool, I like it! I think we are on the verge of inventing a new theme: "A Troll's Life"
I think the use of the bottles is excellent, and they fit perfectly in the troll's hand! The "little ones" are my favorite part, however, especially that baby.
Excellent use of the Nesquick rabbit, by the way... for some reason I am feeling a compelling urge to get one now.
Great stuff!

Cool! This is quite weird, I mean Trolls can read? Perhaps they are instruction manuals for skinning rabbits 
Very interesting & well done

Thanks so much for the feedback!
The real reason he's on the shelf is because there wasn't enough room on the baseplate!
