Re: Iwo Jima 2nd Flag raising in Legos
Looks great with the exception of the flag is a bit small, Bradley is not stooped over far enough and Hayes's hands should be a touch further away from the flagpole.
And NO, im not saying I could ever do better-nor even come close to comparing. ;-))

Re: Iwo Jima 2nd Flag raising in Legos
Heh heh, I wonder how Harlon Block, Bradley, Rene Gagnon, Ira Hayes, Sousley & Strank would feel about being immortalized in Lego bricks? ;-))

Re: Iwo Jima 2nd Flag raising in Legos
Hi Miguel, none taken. I was only kidding with both postings. In reality, that guy did one hell of a great job in making his Flag Raising diorama. I don't have the time nor patience in attempting anyhting like this. ;-))
