Hi there,
my last post was in December last year so I figured It would be nice to refresh my profile a bit with something new. Since I relocated my LEGO collection from my apartment and left only unopened boxes, I decided to make a few alternative builds to lovely powerpig 10314 Dried Flower Centerpiece. Was a fun challenge for me. Let me know what you think?

These are some behind-the-scenes shots of the road scenery I built for the setting of my forthcoming LEGO Back to the Future. Across a folding table I've placed several green baseplates with a long road MOC on top. The road is built with S.N.O.T. = studs not on top, by using bricks and plates assembled sideways to create the flat road pattern with divider lines. The road is anchored on the baseplates by using modified bricks on the top and bottom in just the right areas, which allows the road to be held securely into place. Then the modified bricks are covered with brown and tank pieces along with foliage to create the appearance of the road's shoulder.
Also, I added small notches throughout the road to mimic potholes. I did this by often placing small 1x1 wedge bricks or 1x1 round bricks throughout the pattern. Why are there so many potholes in this road? Well, I'm from Pennsylvania originally, so naturally I had to combat home sickness somehow.
In my Back to the Future animation, I have dozens of shots of both wide angles and closeups of the DeLorean speeding down the road, and for each shot I'd flip the table around and slightly move the plants to create the illusion of different stretches of road, as opposed to constantly using the same landscape over and over again.
This was a gift for my mother on her birthday. It's a microscale model of my parents' house in the south of Sweden. The real house was drawn and built by my father.
This is my first attempt at building a house that exists in real life.
Something small to start the week with. Are you building speeders already :)))
If not join the fun with 2021 LSB Contest!
This little fella needed a spaceship so I built one with the parts of set 71772. The minifigure is from series 22 and has a unique purple classic space torso. The dark pink windscreen is also unique. The three wings can retract to make it more compact when landed. If people like this I might create digital instructions for it later.
Day 06
Infantry Assault Division “Roach” Desert Camo R99 MkV
Add on some amor plating on the leg area for protection in a close up battle scene.. Added some orange barrels on it's back on two side of the main body which might act as a ammo or a fuel tank. The front cockpit there's a smaller arm near the eye ball which added some nasty effect to it. While on the top right side i added some function that act as camera specially for drone detection and a infra red function.
Will work on the armaments next. WIP Still.
Checkered Tan House is a spacious summer residence with light colours. It's built on top of a creek and is surrounded by green, bright green and lime green foliage. A small patio is carved out in the rocks. Fully furnished of course.
This house has similarities both with one of my earliest builds Autumn Stream House and my box-shaped Coral House.
My aim was to keep the house simple, creating dynamics only with the combination of house bodies and windows. This makes a contrast to the green surroundings of the house.
Status Update as on 23 Mar: Apply some of the floor tiles with light blue grey across the floor with missing area will be place with grill plate.
For maintenance crews they do need a bar to hang on in a zero-gravity environment hence a few yellow bars are in place. Back on earth it will be a useful bar to hang on during the launch and landing sequence from the huge mecha heat blast.
3 LED lights is in place and a long 9watt bar is in place. Working on some potential lights in the command centre.
For my submission #bmdhot I present to you my "Stug” Scara Therium IAD ST111 MarkIII. Still in working progress as usual and here I wanna share my design for Stug's weapons on both at the main body can be adjust to its potential firing position.
The Samurai and the Gunslinger, back to back. This was a series created to celebrate the cyberpunk style and mythos. Ever since Bladerunner, Neuromancer, Judge Dredd, and now Cyberpunk 2077 I've been fascinated with with the genre. I've been trying to find a way to celebrate cyberpunk in a meaningful way out of LEGO, and settled on building scaled up characters as a challenge.
The Samurai was first and inspiration came from of all things a dots bracelet, which I ended up using as his belt. The belt set the scale of the character and the base color (black). From there I had the goal of creating a unique face style using the black handcuffs as eyes and 2 x 2 corner tile with cut for the mustache.
The android Gunslinger came next. My first intention for him was to be a defeated foe at the feet of the Samurai. However sometimes intentions fall by the wayside and the Gunslinger took on a "life" of his own. I wanted him to be one of the lesser used blue colors so I settled on med azure. I knew I wanted the revolver to be an oversized futuristic take on the classic firearm. From there I created the bandolier, oversized belt buckle and cowboy hat shaped head as a nod back to the gunslingers of the American wild west.

I haven't been that active of late, but I am back now. This year has been dreadful from a health perspective but I am back on the horse.
I'm optimistic about future mocs and projects.
Next year I hope to make it to Brickworld and maybe Brickfete if it is happening, maybe bricks by the bay?
Thanks for swinging by - I appreciate all the comments and faves!
I'm hoping to hit 10 million by the end of next year and hopefully build something blog worthy!
cheers

Hero ship from Jedi: Fallen Order. This is another one that I'm shocked LEGO didn't make into an official set, along with the Corvus. At least give us a Cal figure.
Five of us from Victoria met up with Damien from South Australia for a combined layout at Mount Gambier.
Sometimes a seed takes forever to finally sprout, and sometimes you can’t tell from the seed which flower will grow out of it. Yet sometimes you can!
This old fire ship, set nr. 316, was my first LEGO set ever, and I loooooved it – still do! So naturally this was the first set I rebuilt for my son when I came out of the „dark age“ three years ago.
And lo and behold this fire ship was the inspiration for the „FRS Firefly“ which then was the seed the whole „Full Steam“ idea grew out of.
So to the designer of the set – whoever you are: Thank you so much for installing the love for Lego in me and sowing the seed for the ever-giving fruit that is AFOL building more than thirty years later. Funny how that works…
@w.navarre: that's that red hull piece you were asking about.😉
I wish you all happy new year with this totally xmasy theme :D
This was built several months ago for my DnD session. It is a Zerg (from Starcraft 2) inspired army. It is not 1/1 copy but I think if you are a Starcraft fan you will recognize what is what easily
Finally, after one year from the first buildings, my microcity Meribia is complete! The whole creation is 75 x 51 studs big (53 x 41 cm) ; 6 are the dstricts; 72 is the total number of buildings and 40 are the single different types of buildings. But Microcity Meribia, is also a diorama, and soon you'll see it...
Just got me a chopper and I'm feeling pumped!
Another Iron Forge entry. I've used the seed part 2 times, not counting the biker minifig.

Recent Hong Kong public housing design tends to be modulated and monotonous. Let's recall our memories of childhood fun running around the public estate by bricks! Scenes like Chinese clinic, playground, corridors and metal gates are recreated. Occupation of corridor for decoration, while not allowed in Hong Kong, is somehow very common in Singapore.
Was too unwell to post this last month, so happy belated Halloween!
A wee BrickLinkStudio BrickLinkStudio MOC designed for the Northern Brickworks ‘Brick or Treat’ build challenge.
P.S. DYK #Fabuland heads fit on #Minifigure torsos? Just gingerly remove the grey ball joint with a pair of pliers.
