Had a lovely walk around Siblyback Lake this afternoon Blew a few cobwebs away and took loads of photographs Now back to the Halloween build the clock is ticking
“A decrepit racing ship that earns its colorful name Fireball due to its tendency to erupt in flames, this sleek vessel is a focus of constant and sometimes frustrated attention from the repair crew of Jarek Yeager’s garage. Team Fireball invests a lot of time, effort, and care into keeping the Fireball in high-flying shape.”
~ Star Wars databank
Influenced by World War II planes combined obscure starfighter designs from the old X-wing, TIE Fighter, and The Old Republic games, the Fireball is one of the best looking starfighters in all of Star Wars.
I am a bit upset that LEGO did not make an official model of the Fireball... yet. I hope they do in the future. This prompted me to design my own version, and it turned out more complex than I anticipated.
But I like to build things to be a perfect match, which makes things complicated and challenging. I exhausted my brain to apply all kinds of building techniques to convey the complex shape of this ship. There are also some really ancient and obscure LEGO Technic pieces utilized in the complexity of this model.
Recently I got myself this beautiful set, and decided to spend an hour or two and build an unusual alternative model. Shiny dishes inspired me to build this boombox, it was quite interesting to figure out how to position speakers in car arches
A microscale block of flats in Swedish summer surroundings.
In some way inspired by the art of Jaxco (000float @ Instagram).
This is my attempt at creating an apple snail. These are large freshwater snails that can be found in many parts of the world. I used to have one of these in my home aquarium and they are endlessly fascinating. This guy will end up as a feature in a new model I hope to be building soon.
This is Rudy. Rudy Fritz. Ex UGG Australia model, now a test pilot.
This is my Sheeptember contribution :D
Who else is going?
Credit to Daniel Siskind on the original truck design. I modified it and entered the contest. An actual model of this is in Brinckmania's Fury display at the Chicago retail store.
The MPM60 Multi-Purpose-Manipulator was my entry into the Bricklink designer contest. I wanted to build something that looked visually intersting and had several play features but that also invoked a sense of nastalgia from several of the older Lego lines. In particular, the arm and the containers were the main features of a number of older space and underwater themes and I thought that they still worked with the new design.
I had also just started looking at Paul Pepera's designs and the "inflatable" and utilitarian look came from that. This was the first ship I made that actually fit with hard-scifi and from here I went on to make all of the other models. The Guppy (one image back ->) has the same base but I changed the tank under the engine and balanced the colors and added new attatchments.
Congradulations to all the winners. There are some great models there!
Blue Striped House is a U-shaped house inspired by contemporary Scandinavian architecture. Blue, tan and grey stripes. Small windows form irregular patterns and let the sun light create life in the living room, guest bedroom and dining area. All rooms have clean and modern furnishings. The house has three entrances through the living room, kitchen and laundry room. A windling staircase lead to the master bedroom upstairs.
Outside you may notice signs of late summer or early autumn. Brown, green, orange and red colours.

3rd Version if IX! Now much more accurate to how I envision/draw her. Super happy with how this came out, especially her blade.
Face design inspired by several of Eero Okkonen's builds. IX's specific version of said face by IonicNova.
The Allied Space Force requires each ship to carry special small spacecrafts for repair. This is to allow them to quickly recover from the inevitable battle damage and carry out their mission.
Lego gunship for my series "The Polaroid War". Gunship is detachable in four main components; quad engines, cockpit, and two ion laser cannons. Fits one pilot in the cockpit.
For a couple years now I have wanted to build a gingerbread castle; the ideas have been bouncing around in my head for but really came together when I saw Tim Lydy build a gingerbread display at Brickworld Chicago last year. Seeing his gingerbread world really helped solidly some of the concepts. Full credit to him for the cookie trees; I couldn't do them better myself.. so I didnt 😂
This angel show more details on the inner wall panel design, walkway which could lock in place when it's not in use and the surrounding platform. There is so many imagination that you could place the mini figure in here to make a more like a real-life scene scenario. This base could easily house less than 20 mini figures in it.
I've designed this build for the LEGO IDEAS Contest. If you want to support it and see more photos ➡️

Thanks for supporting my project 🙏😀
Architecture is expressed in many different ways around the world. For thousands of years, human kind has been inventing construction techniques to build and develop civilizations.
With my creation "Architecture Inspiration", I wanted to express ancient, contemporary or futuristic achievements from different cultures and eras. I also took care to vary the colours, region of world and types of architecture. These architectural achievements are built with LEGO bricks in a vintage photo format, as if we had taken a real photo of the building.
This creation could become a decorative puzzle for lovers of architecture, design and history
This plane design is inspired by CAS-1 Dual Configuration close air support aircraft by Tom Alfaro which came across browsing in Printrest which make me curious on how to make this awesome craft design apply into a brick lego brick. Therefore i present to you BZ-05 Bembix Zorn"Stinger"
This is not the final design. I am working on it with some minor design to be added in and maybe a few design changes. This is a follow up design from MV-18 Manta Viper concept but more deadly with dual configuration design as in hovering and a thurst jet plane concept for a close air support.
Pilot by two crews: one is pilot and the other is a navigator /Engineering sitting at the back.
They have been done many times before, but sometimes you just gotta build some Starcraft space marines. A little larger than minifig scale to play with the proportions a bit.
Two techniques for creating a steering for 6-wide cars. The "pneumatic steering" is a strong build, but not very natural, the "coffee mug steering" has a more realistic view but is a bit unstable and difficult to use.

Digital version of the Prelacy's armoured personnel carrier. Features locked 4-wheel steering, rear suspension, hatches-a-plenty, lighting by Light My Bricks, all with room for 2 crew + 8 passengers.
Built for Moc League 2022 Round 1. A terrifying fusion of flesh inside a metal frame, the transfusionist can barely remember who he once was before the mad doctor ripped him apart and grafted the steel to what was left. He wields a mutation syringe. He uses the weapon to draw the blood of his victims, mutating it with the rotating vials of different genes and viruses sitting around the needle. He then injects the mutated blood back into his victims, the corrupted plasma killing, mutating, or permanently mangling his victims through painful mutation.
