Brickman Experiment 1

I had some fun making snow bricks at the weekend. Technically, Nils was present but it would be unfair to say I was playing with him; "directing", perhaps.

So, anyway, obviously you should try to use snow bricks to make a Lego man. Obviously.

It turns out that moo milk cartons are quite good brick molds if you cut off one side and leave the flap on.

This one got to the point where I was just about to make a head, but then thought I should defer until later to give me a chance to get Nils interested. Unfortunately, headlessness was the least of its problems: it fell over a minute after I came in. Oh well. Looks like balance is gonna be a bigger problem than structural strength.

Here's hoping it snows again next weekend!
