Palm trees 2. The island

I decided to give a try to LEGO classic palm trees.  Guess what.  They work the best.

 

I mean, I like the way those palm tree trunks look and work.  Yes, I had to purchase used parts, 'cause they are note made these days.  2 of them were too lose.  But others work exactly the way they suppose to.  I can bend those trees any way I want, making them look more "live".

Bungalow + roof

I like the way the roof looks :)


Of course I used up all freshly purchased tiles and didn't have anything left for the porch and railing.  But I also figured out what I need to add to my bungalow design.  Right now it looks good if I take pictures from this angle.  But if I need my camera to look up, like if the minifigure would look at the bungalow - there are grey hinges I'd better cover with tiles.  It will look much better then.


LEGO is an addiction.  No matter how many bricks you have and just purchased - you always need some more :)

Minifigures. Part 2

Classic yellow or light flesh?  Not an easy choice tbh.



Coulson original LEGO minifigure is great.  Yet it meant to represent him on a mission, communicating with fellow SHIELD agents.  His dual-sided head has sunglasses on one side, the other side has a headset.  Sunglasses are cool, but the headset is not something AC would need for this vacation.  So I need to find another head looking similar to his original one.
