Advent 2024 Days 3-4
Today we are covering days 3 and 4 of the Advent calendars since I fell asleep on the couch yesterday and didn’t get Day 3 done! Not an auspicious beginning. I really need to start doing these in advance instead of trying to get it done the day of! Anyway, today we get a dog with a bone and a skateboard with helmet (City), the Little Mermaid and her castle (Disney), a snowboard ramp and a bunny (Friends), and some street furniture (Spider-Man).

My Coast Guard helicopter featured in YouTube video
A photo of one of my creations was (very) briefly featured in this video:
At the very end, when he does the “you can build anything out of bricks” bit, there’s a brief shot of my Coast Guard helicopter. No, I’m not annoyed that they didn’t give credit, I think it’s cool that it was chosen to represent the helicopter genre.
I guess I need to repost the Coast Guard base pictures on Brickpile — it’s currently only posted on my old site (and occasionally appears on BayLUG‘s layouts).
Seen at Bricley’s Words.
