\"ImageHandler\"<\/a>This past weekend, our LUG did a Iron Builder event. We had 30 minutes to gather up parts and build a MOC (see the rules<\/a>), incorporating a ‘mystery’ piece — for our event, the mystery elements were clown hair. \ud83d\ude42<\/p>\n

When I first saw the hair, I thought I’d try to create a flowering bonsai tree. \u00a0I gathered up a bunch of green plate, brown bricks of various sizes, and Technic pieces. \u00a0I know time was short and the available pieces for build were limited. \u00a0I wasn’t going for perfection or a refined MOC — I wanted to build it quickly, with some whimsy, instead of it being\u00a0meticulously\u00a0planned out.<\/p>\n

I didn’t win<\/a>, but I’m okay with that. \u00a0\ud83d\ude42 \u00a0For me, this was to build something quickly, not over think it, and have fun.<\/p>\n

And to be honest, it is a fun contest!<\/p>\n\n
