I just can't stop creating little scenes, with my custom Elton John minifigure I got from www.minifigures.com/minifigures/
This build has been on going for a month or so now, it was going to be a dark creepy tower. But as my mood lifted and as an antidote to the dark wet winter evenings it's morphed into a a bright colourful creation .
"Now that's the Kids sorted, here's to a bit of me time"
( Please note no minifigures were harmed during the building or photographing of this MOC)
In his house at R'lyeh, dead Cthulhu waits dreaming ... no more ... for he has awakened ... and soon madness will spread.
The peaceful people of the Otawa have never been much involved with regional politics. But when their small town proves a strategic location for a group of bandit's new hideout, a massacre commences...
As the UK government made another short notice decision to quarantine requirements, many holidaymakers made a last-minute dash to get home before they came into force.

As the explorers landed on Cyria Q35I, they were immediately struck by the unusual vegetation that blanketed the landscape.
Plants with twisted, gnarled stems sprouted bulbous, glowing fruits that emitted a sickly-sweet aroma, while others seemed to undulate in the breeze like writhing tentacles.
The explorers were both fascinated and repulsed by these alien plants, wondering how they had evolved to survive in such a strange and hostile environment.

Earlier this year I created some 8x8 vignettes using the Batman Movie CMF for the Brickfanatics Website. I've created another four using the TRU CMF here's the second one.
Even the most adventurous space explorer needs to have a pit stop now and then. Luckily for spaceman Chuck he landed on a planet with lots of vegetation ... you never know who might be watching!
You might not be everybody's cup of tea but if your true to yourself, those who like you. Will drink your tea.
"Is supper ready yet my dear ?"

My build for RebelLUGs The Dark Knight collab!
Based on this scene from the movie: youtu.be/jane6C4rIwc?si=WgsrNM23CD5pNkxf&t=79
I had fun with this one, trying to get the lighting and reflections right. Plus, The Dark Knight is one of my favorite movies, so it was cool getting to build something from it.
I made a little behind the scenes video for the build on youtube: youtube.com/shorts/NGEZqokSI6o?si=ybHsPxqDgGeOoHrM
And be sure to check out the other builds in the collab on the RebelLUG instagram: www.instagram.com/rebellug/?hl=en
Although it is mostly blind, this heavily armoured demon is still known as one of the most ferocious fighters. The smallest sound attracts them to a target, swift and agile it closes in and a single hit of that mace means lights out for their victim. Quick and deadly!
We have reached the end! I'll post a compilation shot of all the models on a white background once I get a chance :)
I only work in black. And sometimes bathe in very very light grey.
I've been busy building some more 8x8 vignettes using the new Batman Movie CMF. These are again for the Brickfanatics Website.
Son, put away your phone. You're attracting the zom-bots.
Just a few more minutes, I almost destroyed my opponent's tower.
Now, son!
That's exactly what the description of the model that I got in the phone game sounded like. Here's a winter MOC in April. (I built it in the last days of 2024)
A tribute to the tranquil moments that have been rare lately. Life has become quite hectic but thanks to my wife I do find some time to build once in a while. I'm insanely grateful to have her.
Jengo, Toa of Fire
(Lore drop)
This brave Toa survived an agressive encounter with Makuta Miserix, but got struck with the power of the mask of mutation while in fight. His red body turned ash black and his flamethrower weapon fused with his body.
To get out alive Jengo used his fiery power to create a smoke bomb. Whilst Jengo escaped, his breathing capability got progressively worse to the point he couldn't move properly and return to base. Luckily a Ta-Matoran expedition team found him and rescued him to their village. There he received a fitting breathing apparatus and recovered quickly.
Jengo paid his debt by becoming the Ta-matoran village protector and has saved serveral matoran from many wild Rahi encounters already.
He does struggle to be at ease sometimes, mainly because he wants to get revenge on Makuta Miserix for what he did to him. But Jengo is unable to do it on his own.
Just off the phone to LEGO and they still haven't released those parts in blue....... My entry to the scenes for the Corner Garage photo contest on @brickcentral
After that disaster with the OFE units, the Blue Mystery company dissolved and was never heard of again. Or so it seems.
They moved off-world and worked in secret for many years on a new line of robots. With the launch of their latest product, S.A.P.E (Sentient Automated Planetary Explorer) they took over space exploration.
And indeed for a while all was well and Blue Mystery was able to clear their name. Until reports came in from far and wide about the sheer stupidity of the S.A.P.E. units. It was not long before people referred to them as "Stupid Apes". And with that the fate of Blue Mystery was finally sealed.
On the captivating alien world of Strion 3B, geode mining has reached new frontiers with the introduction of autonomous mining machines. These cutting-edge robotic marvels are designed to navigate the treacherous terrains and extract the precious geodes with unrivalled precision and efficiency.
Powered by advanced artificial intelligence systems and equipped with an array of sensors, these machines roam the alien landscape with a graceful purpose. They traverse rugged cliffs, traverse deep ravines, and manoeuvre through dense vegetation, all while adapting to the ever-changing topography of Strion 3B.
The integration of autonomous mining machines also ensures the preservation of Strion 3B's delicate ecosystem. Their precision and accuracy minimise disruptions to the surrounding environment, mitigating potential harm to the unique flora and fauna that inhabit this alien world.
Happy St Patrick's Day💚🇮🇪 A rather less publicly celebratory day than normal, but hopefully celebrated in some shape or form if at all possible.
"The evil on this island is about to learn that justice can be very...cold."
Sometimes it's nice to go back to where things all began.
20th build in my Iron Builder round against LittleJohn, using the Toy Winder Key part in dark orange.
The plows have been out all morning, clearing another snowfall. It is very light and fluffy, due to the much colder air.
15 degrees F (-9 C)
Windchill of -1 F (-18 C)

Inspired by concept art by artist OzArt212. I loved the shape and color blocking. Obviously I took some liberties with the design, but I still hope I did it proud.
Massive thanks to Nick Trotta for his help with the nose section. Specifically making the tapered side 'supports' flush with the fuselage.
The fourth round of the local building competition for creative use of certain parts. This time I think I did a great job using the holes in the minifigures' legs..
To gaze upon Thal'Xathra is to invite the cold infinity of the cosmos into your soul, where shadows of distant stars whisper secrets meant to remain unspoken.
A quick build I took to Bricklive Birmingham to display whilst helping out on the Firestar Toys stand.
After the Great War of the Tribes, many have modified their battle mechs for different everyday tasks. This is the case with Silas Xyl. He used to operate a minesweeping mech, mark 7, but after the war he opened a kindergarten, where the small mech was perfect for nusring tadpoles. He chose to use the mech for nursing as both mines and kids are equally dangerous materials to work with.
Obviously my mechs will be only in the frog "family" :D
