www.tabletown.co.uk.
2) Your creation must be a vignette on a base no larger than 8 studs square. Pieces are allowed to overhang the sides, but the base must be no larger than this.
3) If you wish your entry to be considered for the second category, your creation must feature the use of Brickarms in some capacity. This includes Brickarms custom minifigures.
4) Aside from the use of Brickarms, you must use only genuine unmodified LEGO elements. No clone bricks are allowed. No brick modification is allowed, there is to be no cutting, painting or altering of LEGO bricks. ANY type of LEGO can be used - Technic, Duplo, System, whatever you like. The use of string or elastic bands is permitted, but they must be of the type you would find in a LEGO set. No gluing or other illegal method of holding your creation together is permitted. Official LEGO decals may also be used, but no unofficial ones (save for the Brickarms exception detailed above).
5) The contest will run from Saturday November the 1st at 00:01 GMT until Sunday November the 30th at 12:00 GMT. A period of just over 4 weeks, or one whole calendar month. No entries will be accepted after that date unless a general extension of time is agreed - to be posted here.
