"It was just a routine day with another routine patrol. There was no reason to patrol the area, it had been abandoned the week before, but the Sarge insisted on it. Little did he know what awaited him and his men."

Recorded by war photographer Ssgt. Robert Callahan.


Inspiration from JHank.









And a picture without the figs.



All comments are welcomed and greatly appreciated as always.

Thanks for looking,

Wow! This looks like a sad ending of a war film as all of the main character's team mates are shot down and the camera fades, while the characters voice says the perpetual line "They said it was routine . . ." I am a creative genius :P

Very unique and artistic. I love the way you made the little building.

Check out my Flickr! Last updated: October 19th, 2009. No big MOCs from me for a while, I've got a vignette I'm working on, and it's using my best pieces.

Nice bullet effects! So touching, so sad. It reminds of deceit of the fuhrer. Great job.

For every brickarm created, there is a minifig who needs it.

How did they die? Afterall, I do see a Browning Automatic in there! Best gun ever made, by far! ;)

I saw it on Flickr, although it looks much better here on the Forums.

They were ambushed by a squad of Germans while on patrol. It's a V1 BAR proto, the better version in my opinion.

Wow! Great work Ewok! I love the bullet effect a lot. This reminds me of the sceen in "Band of Brothers" Where they took the town of Carentan in part 3.

BRICKARMS! The best in minifig weapons technology.

I might make it a continuation but I probably won't. I might make another one of that series but we'll see.

I love it! The walls and ground are a cool. Where did you get the helmet? Is it BA, or another vendor, or custom?

You need brickarms to get a girlfriend.
You need legos to build one.

The M1 Helmet is custom made from a mold by me.

BrickBandit: Yeah, They had to do it everyday so wouldn't it become a rountine? Oh, and thanks.
