First introduced 10 years ago in 2010 with the classic rangefinder silhouette, excellent ergonomics, and impeccable optics - the iconic X100 series has developed a cult following amongst street photographers.

Based on some CC and also wanting to make a few touch-ups for BFVA, Spectra got some minor updates. Their torso and head are the same, but the arms were improved, fingers were added, and the legs and feet were modified slightly to fit the new arm length. :>

Let there be light - inside my Mecha head mono eye :)

 

Take another level to try out this LEGO brick light (Original) to redesign and fit in nicely within the head since its a 2x3 bricks. Glad it turn out well.

In a glade shadowed by pine trees lies this house. It has a large terrace (to some extent inspired by Frank Lloyd Wright's Fallingwater) and a cosy conservatory with garden view.

It might not be my most complex build so far, but it's still one of of my hardest to finish. In April, after years and years of hard work as a legal counsel with high speed approach and self-imposed performance requirements, I ran out of energy. My brain stopped co-operating and I lost my ability to focus. Since then, I have been struggling to recover and to find a balance both at work and in my creative process with LEGO. Thus, finishing Pineglade House MOC means a lot to me and I'm glad that I'm now on a more sustainable path ahead.

In the future a new earth-like planet - named Ademis - is discovered. A group of people with different skills is sent to Ademis to live there and examine the pre-conditions for a larger colony to be established.

Another diorama scene in the making this time. This hangar is design with playable part such as foldable mechanic arms that can be place in a storage also the arms can be stretch out too, movable mechanism at the middle bar that will be lower up or down for pickup spare parts, multiple walkway platform and soon some led lights will be installing to create an environment mood.

Inspired by the character in the Richard Scarry Children's books.

 

More series 4 minifig fun, i am sure this guy will be everywhere soon, so i thought i would join in...

I've just returned from a wonderful holiday in Ibiza. The post holiday blues are setting in and the washing is still piling up.

Vintage Gas Pump

Here a cool project I made with my friend Martin Chauvette for a LUG contest, it was a really fun collab to build this kind of thing. I don't usually build in this theme but for this MOC, it was an imposed theme,: GARAGE". So, we made an old fashioned Gas Pump.

 

13" Length

7" width

26" high

 

Over 4000 parts... we just lost the count!!!

 

Approx. 8-9 hours of build!

Location: Coruscant Underworld, Night Life District

Objective: Reconstruction.

Difficulty: Trivial.

Moving the last of the supplies was pretty smooth sailing. I think those spies learned quickly to let us do our job. But I’m not daft, I know theres Imperials crawling in the shadows, especially those under the command of Admiral Jud....

Its been a few weeks and the people around here are starting to look a lot less shell shocked by all that occurred during the riots. The fires have been put out and much of the rubble has been cleaned up. We regrouped back where we started in the Fine Arts District. There we were able to discuss our next move. Hozz has tasked us with rebuilding the city from where it stands. The buildings needed redesigned and most if not all of them repainted.

We knew it was a huge task, but even with groups all over Coruscant we stood no match against time. So we took it upon ourselves to gather some citizens from the surrounding area to pitch in and help the cause. Lets just say, it was quite the experience...

 

— END LOG —

  

“Alright!!! Everyone listen up! I was able to pull a few strings and get hover pads for moving up and down the buildings easier. Please stay strapped in at all times. The last thing I need is street cleanup added to the already long list of tasks to complete.”

 

Hozz was always quick to crack a joke, but he was just as quick to let the group know that he didn’t need anyone seriously injured. Also, that most of the hard stuff was already done.

 

“The Scum and Imperials that are still left are few and they are hiding. They know what awaits them when they return to the surface. But what do we have to worry about anyways? We are survivors.”

 

Before he leaves, Hozz walks over to Address Cray and Jehk who were going over their plans on how to be as efficient as possible.

 

“You two are going to be on your own today, I have to head over to the industrial district to watch over a couple groups since their leader wasn’t so lucky as to make it back from the supply runs.”

 

“It won’t be an issue Hozz, we got this. Jehk and I already have an idea of where to start, is it alright with you if we gather some citizens to help out?”

 

“Thats not an issue with me, but just remember you guys are liable. I gotta go though. Enjoy your day fellas. Good luck.”

 

Cray and Jehk grab their tools along with hover pads and head door to door gathering the few that are willing to assist. Well... the few with tools. They could tell the help wasn’t going to be the best. But they needed all the hands they could get.

 

Cray gathers the group, “LISTEN UP! Extremely happy you all could come out today. We are going to head deeper into the nightlife district to fix up some buildings. Theres a lot of exposed wires so watch yourself. If you decide to use the hover pads remember to strap yourself in and be careful of your surroundings.”

 

Cray led the group to start on a larger white structure known as The Blassiu. The tope half on the building was almost completely wiped away on the street side. The group quickly got to work. The sounds of power tools echoed around the building and rang through the exposed pipes. At one point the group hearing a muffled yell explode back at them through the pipes. At the same time all the lights in the area became bright then shut off. Only after a few seconds did they come back on and return to normal.

 

“That was quite odd.” Jehk feeling concerned.

 

“Probably just a breaker popping Jehk”

I built this for the Survivors 12x12 Challenge as well as my Phase 2. If it can’t be accepted for both then just count it for Phase 2 of the mission. I rebuilt this probably 3 times before I was happy with the white building. I hope you all enjoy this smaller build and thanks as always for the support.❤️

It was fun to add the Mini Cooper in the garage. It fits perfectly.

This build has a bit of a history to it. I initially built the dragon's head about 3 years ago with the intention of it being a sea monster. Then I brought it, as a wip, to BFVA and Markus helped me build a neck/body for it to be displayed.

After BFVA I started working on a more exciting ocean battle scene to put the monster in, but that moc never really came to fruition.

Then, fast-forward to a few months ago, and my school was having a "Lego Masters" competition where students could make teams and build whatever they want, and then the models would be displayed at homecoming for people to vote on their favorites. I of course had to enter, and I grabbed a couple of my friends from school to make a team. Together, in about 2 days we (though mostly me) cranked out this cave/landscape and won the competition (though we only won headphones instead of $100k...).

Because the model was built for display it actually is pretty sturdy and looks decent from all sides, so I might bring it to a convention sometime too, we'll see.

Overall I don't think it's a super impressive build or anything, but for what it is, I'm pretty happy with it. Hopefully I will have more builds to post on here soon (Space Jam trophies at least).

If you made it this far, thanks for reading xD

It's Saturday night and it's time for Ms. Purple because she is in a disco mood.

First attempts on building a rover. I didn't know anything about Febrovery, but saw Frost's builds and got hooked.

 

As this is my favorite minifig from the latest Series 21, I've decided to build one for this guy.

While building this I was listening to an album called dubnobasswithmyheadman by Underworld (still one of my favourites) and it took me back to a time at uni when I bought this album, grabbed a six pack and poured my childhood Lego collection on the floor for my first build in years. That album just celebrated its 20 year anniversary and the original Lego collection was lost long ago (pitty it was full of 70s Lego and most of the first series of space). I might not have my youth any more but at least I still have my creativity and a youthful love for Lego.

When the autumn wind is roaring outside and winter is getting closer it would be nice to have a place like this. A modern cottage with fireplace and large windows.

 

This build will hopefully be on display at LUG Swebrick´s first post-pandemic event in Hässleholm, Sweden, in November 2021.

Haulin’ ore, but not a lot of it? Why pull out the big guns with a large hauler? They’re bulky, cumbersome and hard to maneuver.

 

Introducing the M-Tron Small Ore Hauler. Specially designed for all your small ore transportation needs. This little rover boasts a powerful engine, tow hitch with removable storage bed and an open air concept.

 

The M-Tron Small Ore Hauler stays on brand with its M-Tron color pallet which invokes a sense of professionalism, trust, and commitment that the M-Tron brand has stood for in the galactic mining community for decades.

 

Don’t trust your ore and mining needs to just anyone. Trust M-Tron. Hail us now or visit our subspace network holosite to talk to our service reps today and get haulin’!!

BTS - So gang! This is the last image for my contribution to Febrovery 2021. Hope you enjoyed these few images! It was fun being back!!

 

So M-Tron and I have a funny relationship. You guys know me as the Nova Team and Neo-Classic Space guy. But growing up, I played a lot of Futuron, M-Tron, Blacktron I/II, Space Police I/II and Ice Planet. Sure, I'm the right age for some later Classic Space, I just got into LEGO Space a tad late, but always looked at CS longingly. So all these years as an AFOL, I've been compensating for not having CS growing up. Haha! So theme's like M-Tron I look back on very nostalgically, so a while back I built a few M-Tron things and this little rover was one of them (some day I'll get around to photographing the other stuff).

 

Fans of the theme will quickly see that I was very much invoking the original M-Tron box art when editing this photo. Because I was trying to make it - dare I say "realistic" - I opted not to put the rad 90's line grid in the background. I had a lot of fun doing this one! Oh and yeah, the Nova Team logo is there because M-Tron does exist in that universe! I do plan on doing a crossover event one day. Hope you guys like it!

MORSEN TENEBRISIA, THE GOLDEN DARKNESS, THE FEATHERED SHADOW, THE HERALD OF THE END, HOLY MOTHER OF ENTROPY, THE LAST ECLIPSE.

 

(Summer Showdown series, Pt. 6)

 

This is my sixth entry into the #haonsummershowdown2 contest being run by @haon.brx over on Instagram. The theme for this week was "eclipse." As with my last six-week contest, I elected to interconnect my characters into a tale of adventure and triumph! For this batch of characters, I wanted to make sure they were a colorful cast, as well as fun and whimsical, as summer should be. This week's entry is the notable exception, evidently. While this was definitely meant to be a more serious and menacing character for the grand antagonist reveal, I still wanted to add a touch of color that would otherwise be unexpected for the theme. I leaned heavily into the concept of the paradox of an eclipse—light ringing shadow, moments that feel eternal, etc.—and decided to try and incorporate my own paradox: invisible light made visible to the human eye, only at the time of the eclipse, when all is possible. As such, I elected to pull in some "ultraviolet" light into this figure. The character for this week is the Herald of the End.

 

 

She was naught but a whisper of the entropy that awaited all things, birthed in the time before light and shadow, from the very essence of the end. Legends of her foreboding glare haunted folks the way scary stories haunted children. It was said that once, every solar eclipse, she would appear to a random individual who was completely alone, and she would wave her cruel and terrible scythe, threshing their soul from this world, leaving behind their mortal chaff, hollowed and empty. While no one ever placed much stock in the myths, she had been there for millenia, reminding the world of the looming nothingness that awaited them all, death by death, soul by soul.

 

With each soul she harvested, her great golden wings grew another feather—another macabre, though darkly resplendent reminder of all that would be lost. With each feather she gained, she felt the weight of her duty grow heavier and heavier. That golden mask of her visage grew more hollow, and her great helm grew more burdensome atop her form. She was a force of nature, an entity which predated most laws of the universe, and yet, mortals had exacted a toll on her as she had on them. Not all souls she'd harvested were truly alone, and their memories stung her essence like the barbs of doubt as she drank of their very being. Memories of times they had more: more friends around, more laughter, more loved ones, more hope—more dreams. It was altogether foreign to her, and yet intoxicating.

 

Like the draw of sharpened steel to one's guilty flesh, she called to mind the memories of those lost souls between eclipses, and enveloped herself in them. She'd wrapped herself up in those great golden wings, each feather a glinting reminder of the end, and began to dream her own dream. Centuries passed, as she dreamed in that unmoving, unseeing state. She'd drifted about in the cosmos, looking like little more than a chunk of gold meandering its way through the darkness. And in that umbral dream of hers, she saw, too, her own end.

My second entry to the first Round of Iron Forge 2024. I used 6 helmets in total here.
