About Josh

Josh is 30+ years old and has more Lego than he has hair. Which really isn't saying much. He builds mostly medieval creations, but dabbles in other genres. He is also a father and uses his kids as an excuse to buy Lego. That justification isn't working as well as it used to, so if you can think of a better justification, feel free to contact him. Meanwhile, back at the ranch, Josh's Brickshelf gallery gets messier and messier. Josh also has a Flickr gallery, if you care about such things. He goes by the name "floodllama" there. If you wonder why he goes by "floodllama", you've obviously never owned a llama in flood. Josh feels sorry for you.

Afraid of Clowns?

If so, you’ve got coulrophobia. You should also stay away from Lino’s entry in the Fear and Loathing Challenge. He calls it “I Scream”.

Gently down the stream...

Check out Tiberium_Blue’s action-packed river scene. I’m lovin’ that tree….

Now this is disturbing

Jordan Schwartz has built an interesting scene, if pigs in speedos interest you. I wish I could erase it from my mind! But I had to check out the details in this weird little scene. The beach ball, the ducky float-tube, the towel on the sand. Excellent!

Good job, Jordan, now I have even more issues than before…
