Before reading further, you must acknowledge that what I'm sharing with you is a work-in-progress. He probably wouldn't be terribly happy that I'm sharing it, but I think it's so cool that I just couldn't resist.
Christopher really likes history, especially history around the wars. WWII, in particular, is intriguing to him. When you couple that with love of Legos...well, it's kind of like coupling anything he appreciates with Legos, there is some kind of creation.
The latest creation is of Utah Beach during the Normandy invasion.
If you look carefully, you'll see a row of splashes of water where the ocean is being strafed with overhead fire. There's a bit of sand blowing up where some form of armament hit the beach. The pool of blood is obvious. He has an entire scene in his head and carefully plans out each piece, literally. The other day we were at Target and he wanted to buy a farmer Lego. Trust me, farmer Legos are not his thing. Of course, he later told me he didn't want the farmer, but he needed his face. It was the perfect face for a soldier.
I can't wait to see this when it's finished!
