Ah, I had seen these the other day on Brickshelf. They're both pretty good, although that statue is pretty creepy, he looks like he could come to life at any moment.

I laughed out loud at the blacksmiths daughter... That's just brilliant!

Both pretty good.

I love the statue/B.Falcon one. It looks.... perfectly vignette-ish.

I'm not quite sold on the blacksmith's daughter. For one thing, I tend to dislike that torso, but that's besides the point. More to the point is the roof. The way is hangs over the vignette, supported only on the one side looks too unstable, and thus detracts from the attraction of the vignette, at least in my opinion.

Cool, I saw these on Brickshlef earlier this week and I really liked the Statue one. I think the reason I don't like the Blacksmith one is ( as Formendacil already said) 1. I don't really care for that torso

2. The overhanging roof. The roof just looks like it's goign to fall and crush that poor .

It just distract your eyes from everything else in the vignette.

Not sure I like the blacksmith's daugter. I really just don't understand, is she on the first floor hence the stone foundation, or in the attic, hence the roof. Or is the shop really that small?

I love the idea for snot though, good job.
