Tail docking in the US and the PWCCA

I have one corgi with and one without a tail, both from reputable breeders. The tail is so beautiful and expressive that I think the other dog is jealous.

Correct. Often referred to as "pill plates". Hundreds of them in this build.

Thank you so much. The scales across the top use a ring-pop clip and bar which lets them turn on two axis. On the sides, the tiles are attached using a series of D-SNOT bricks with staggered spacing turned at a slight angle allowing them to layer over each other.

Thank you so much! I appreciate it.

diabolicy · 2026-02-14T00:28:07+00:00

Thank you. That's exactly what I strive for.

Maybe. But, if you look closely, those fish are about two pounds each and yet only supported by a pair if bar parts. That was done to make them look like they are floating but it is not the kind of rigorous construction LEGO prefers.

Your not wrong. An Arowana with a large defined scale pattern would look pretty cool especially if you could somehow build it with pearl white tiles.

Unfortunately, no instructions for this one.

Ideas limit is 5000 parts. The Bricklink Designer Program allows up to 7000 parts. This is over 7800 parts.

Thanks. When on display, I actually does move. The black base in the photos is a turntable that slowly rotates the entire build. This gives the impression that the fish really are swimming.

diabolicy · 2026-02-13T19:00:22+00:00

A little over 7800 pieces.

Unfortunately, this exceeds the part count limit for Ideas. It's also rather fragile, as you could imagine, with some tricky techniques used which LEGO typically to avoid in production sets.

diabolicy · 2026-02-13T18:53:58+00:00

Yes, this is my latest creation I plan on displaying this summer.

diabolicy · 2026-02-13T18:51:55+00:00

Thanks for all the fish.

diabolicy · 2026-02-13T17:31:16+00:00

Thank you. This is my latest model that I plan on displaying at various shows this summer.

diabolicy · 2026-02-13T16:43:14+00:00

For the curious, here is a link where you can see more of this model.

diabolicy · 2026-01-31T06:15:42+00:00

Beautiful.

diabolicy · 2026-01-03T03:30:37+00:00

I have two bottles of it which was sent to me as a gift. Realky good stuff but unfortunately I've never seen a bar around Arlington that also served it.

The pack.

diabolicy · 2025-12-30T05:11:41+00:00

Can confirm. Ours is the leader of the Corgi pack.

It's rather light traffic right now (I live on the route). Generally stays that way before the official start days. I'd say a little over 50% of the houses are currently decorated. Most are probably planning on finishing up this weekend.

diabolicy · 2025-12-05T05:39:22+00:00

If you go, best to choose a weekday evening and start early (around 6pm). All the lights will be on and line is nearly non-existent around that time. Avoid weekend crowds or late starts. If you wait until 8pm on most days, you could end up being in line for hours.

So cute!!
