Friday Night Fights (Round 14)

Welcome back fight fans, to Sin City Nevada for another pulse-pounding edition of Friday Night Fights! Tonight’s bout features a struggle of nerds with nothing to lose but their pride. Let’s go to the tale of the tape:

Fighting out of the red corner, from the nerdiest corner of the internet…the Lompoc Lightning-bolt Tommy Williamson (Geeky Tom) and his “The Oatmeal“.

And fighting out of the blue corner, from the bad streets of Berlin…Brucewaynelego-Toyshansolo and his “Family Portrait – Kids playing on the Beach“.

As usual, constant reader, you are tasked with deciding the outcome of this pugilistic endeavor by way of comment. On the last edition of Friday Night Fights, the battle for trainyard supremacy, it came down to a single vote as TBB rookie Nik J Dort took down a living legend 7-6. Tune in next week for more action!

    I think one great detail of Bruce’s build is the light-well he’s created along the top edge. However, I’m a suck for The Oatmeal, and Tommy’s build works for me because the elements take on meaning in ways they were not originally indented to (something Bruce does very well in his non-minifig scale builds).

    Looks a bit Munch vs. Hockney… I like the mix of the varying depths and different flat levels in Family Portrait. The transparency of the sea works great with the horizon and I’m a fan of that cabinet style anyways. Not as catching as the pschedelic colors and shapes in Oatmeal though, but all in all I’d say its more thoughtful details. 1 for Family Portrait.

    It’s too bad that pop culture and memes are what grabs the votes. That said, I vote for the Oatmeal. *whistling and walking away*
