Well, I'm still alive, but I don't know how much more my laptop can take. I accidentally knocked one of my lamps over onto it, and it connected juuuust right to smash a bunch of keys. It took me a while to get the enter, shift, and question mark keys working again, and the shift key is pretty dicey now. Apologies for the delay, I was working as fast as I could. Then I couldn't figure out how to make the kind of garbage can I was picturing in my head, and that took a bunch of time before I gave up and made the bin.

I guess this might be the impetus to get that new laptop I've been thinking about for the last couple of years.

As good a place to stop as any!

Moldingsworth is quickly becoming my favorite character, all the more so because I literally built him right before I took the shot that he first appeared in because I realized at the last second that the Pushups needed a butler.

This salesgirl is obviously based on Leland Gaunt, the primary antagonist of the Stephen King novel Needful Things.

>>2105129
Moldingsworth was a character that didn't exist until just before I shot this picture because I realized at the last second that the Pushups needed a butler.

>>2105264
Francis, however, was an idea I had for a one-off joke enemy that turned into a new friend thanks to the amazing power of letting the good times roll. His portrait was a lot of fun to make. Just a photo of him run through a couple of quick Photoshop effects and printed out on glossy paper at a size that fit a 4x6 frame. The frame is built by SNOT bricks at the top and bottom with the tiles spanning the gaps between the SNOTs; the painting is pinned directly to the wall behind it.

>>2105655
The baseplate-stacking technique used to make the pool area was shown on /toy/ but I can repost it here. The math works out, so as long as you have bricks underneath the top plate to support it and keep it from bending, you can make as many depressions and rises as you want using full baseplates instead of the smaller standard plates.

I have one regret from this episode: in this post I originally had Daisy say "You know Zack, if you break a girl's heart too many times, you won't like what's left", but I changed it at the last second to more vapid comment. At the moment I posted I thought it was too heavy-handed, but shortly after I started wishing that I had gone with my first idea. The perils of live theater!

>>2108007
Teenage drama is fun to write, but it's also a pain in the ass to script. I like to let the dice decide which way things go at any given moment, but I'm always worried that I'm overreaching in my interpretation of the roll.

>>2108363

This Duplo present block is literally a present - I ordered some parts from a Bricklink seller a couple weeks ago, and they accidentally sent me a different part in place of one of the parts I had ordered. They mailed the correct part out the next day, plus a bunch of extra pieces, one of which was this surprise giant Duplo present, which was an amazingly providential coincidence since I was planning on running a birthday party episode that week!

The lesser relatives on the wall behind Daisy are portrayed using the same build technique as General Pushup.

>>2111515
>>2111523
Bonnie and Candie first appeared during the big squareball game against Morgrim Prep in episode 4 but this is the first time they're been named.

>>2111664
After I planted Rex in the background here I laughed out loud for about ten seconds when anon rolled a 1 to accuse him of not bringing Daisy a present.

I'm not sure if I'll run more in this thread or finish this up in a new one, but either way, a big thanks to everybody for playing!
