This past Christmas Vacation my brothers, sister, myself and my girlfriend built a scale replica of the battle of Helms Deep, from the second book of the Lord of the Rings Trilogy, The Two Towers penned by the late, great, J.R.R. Tolkien.
I'm interested to know if that's 1/18th scale or 1/17th.
I too question the scale...and "is this the best you can do with your time"...followed by "where the fuck did you get all that candy". The last one makes me hope that this was a planned event vs one of those stupid things that you do when you're drunk and don't have any midgets to toss. If you're going to go out of your way to make such a think happen it should look way cooler than that.

A girlfriend that will do that with you is, likely, not worth having?
I love a girl who isn't afraid to be a little dorky.
That's all I have to contribute to this thread.

Or his Battle of Waterloo with slugs and twinkies.

You think? I've always loved his Battle of Stalingrad done with miniature mandarin oranges, leaves of lettuce and a tin of spam.

How about the Siege of Belgrade using gingerbread soliders and a moat of Cheese Whiz?
That would be AWESOME!!

I'd love to see The Final Judgement in jelly bellies and toasted marshmallows.

I'm working on a big scene from Orwell's Animal Farm. The farm is a relief which reeks of irony: pork rinds and white glue. The characters are a mixture of Mother's Pink and Whites and Nabisco Teddy Grahams.
The Battle of the Bulge... in muffin tops (the baked kind).
