So here's the story. About a week before Brickworld, Si-Mocs stated his intention to hide frogs on layouts and mocs all around the convention. Here is, roughly, how our conversation went.
Me: You realize, now that you've announced your plans, people are now going to build frog defenses.
Si-Mocs: What could they possibly do?
Me: Well...
So this was my Saturday night. that weekend. About half the time was spent figuring out the leg statues, the other half was placing all the tiles everywhere. Fortunately I had a small empty space at the back of my layout. Don't know how many people saw this, but it was a fun build.
For those who don't know, this is based on the 'famous' chain of restaurants.

The legs were particularly tough not just because of the structure, but because of the limited amount of dark-green pieces available. Sand-green would probably have been better but there's even more limitation there.

Only the front has white 1x1 tiles - while I have many in trans-green, I am too limited in white to place any more.

Two stickers I made for the building. Originally I was going to stick the 'Froglegs' directly on, but I found it was better to be raised out just a bit (by the high-tech method of scotch tape instead of peeling the backing off the sticker).

Here's my half-hearted attempt at an interior. A few tables, chairs, and a counter. It was doubtful that anyone could really be able to see in, but just in case...
