Just got my first Vidiyo set. I got it because of the minifig, but some of the parts are really cool. This is how my futuristic Trabant was born.
We had a lot of those back in the day in Bulgaria. I had a friend who repainted his in pearl green metallic around 2002-2003, and the paint cost more than the car. Happy times :D
Pirate Harbour - I wanted to make a MOC with the Figbarfs, I made for the PotC Competition at Roguebricks. It should have been a small one, it turned out a little big bigger :) Hope you guys like it.
My second LEGO Ideas project - a modular castle that can be easily reconfigured and rearranged. It features hinged walls to shape the castle freely, a working drawbridge, portcullis and a siege tower.

Thank you so much for you support!
Design of the battlements of my castle was inspired by Michael Kalkwarf's Kingdoms Modular Castle Creator project: ideas.lego.com/projects/b967bda0-d0be-4d3f-9f47-9b0c2ebcca26
This is the side view of this beast showing the overall details design at the front and back leg especially the small foot design, armaments position and the flow shape at the back.
Mild remix of my NCS version with nicer anti-grav emitters underneath and more than a hint of a Wipeout vibe
A floating home by the sea. Modern and comfortable. The house is surrounded by a wooden deck and shallow water. A bridge connects the deck to the guay. Fully interiored as always. Kitchen, toilet and living room downstairs. Bathroom, bedroom and storage space upstairs. You find photos of the interiors in my photostream.
Inspiration comes from childhood summers and sailing with my parents. It was a challenge to catch the maritime feeling with details such as railings and stays and at the same time keep the design clean and modern.
I used dark blue bricks to create the water surface. The more common technique with transparent tiles or plates wasn't really on option because it didn't fit in the colour scheme.
It's been awhile since I did last updated my Jebat mecha design. Been busy with exercise, life and etc ;) So thank for being patience with me.
Let me present to you my latest head design for JEBAT! Hope you like my Mono-eyes design. I've managed to design the eye to tilt from left to right. It look menacing when it glance at angle direction.
10th build in my Iron Builder round against LittleJohn, using the Toy Winder Key part in dark orange.
This is my first attempt at a Micropolis build, to be added to the collaborative at Brickfair Virginia this year. The building itself, despite its small size, is made of around 500 pieces (not including the base). The geometry is interesting, if you look at it all closely. The design was quite challenging. The hole in the base needed to place the building in, for example, is 19.5 plates square. That was more difficult to build than I imagined. There are three steps down from the road level, at a half plate each. Hope you enjoy.
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.
I managed to fix the skirt design that able the leg to post with it bended knee. Managed to work on the arm and hand and I am pretty supposed cause the scale of this JE06 Jebat is huge! Look at the missing torso and the cockpit area. Almost a PG scale rate in GUNDAM term.

Preflight for my new moc, a Jaguar XK 120. Of Course it's a right-hand drive, it's a Jaguar man! :-)
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.

A new build for once!
Did not get to building for around 2 years, but over the Easter break I did this build with some help from the family :D
It is not very complex, but I like the vibe and time was somewhat limited anyways.
Tree design by Full Plate, also inspired by an old build of his.
I still have several almost finished builds lying around at home, maybe I can finish them over the summer
Let me know what you think!

Artsand House MOC is a flirt with brutalism. A modern home with art gallery, spa and large bedroom with a garden view. Quadrangular concrete house bodies meet organic nature. A dog is waiting for the owner to come home.
In August 2019 I displayed some of my houses at the Kloss på Kloss exhibition in Hässleholm, Sweden. A visitor asked me if I didn´t have any brutalist houses. I said no and explained that it probably would be too boring. It would be hard to create the dynamics needed to make a modern house MOC interesting. After the exhibition I started thinking and decided to give brutalism a chance. Not purist brutalism, but rather contemporary architecture flirting with brutalism...
Well, these have been sitting in their current state for about a year so I figured I would put them online to spur me along to finish them. I don't really have a solid plan for any of the three, I mostly just tinker with shapes and see if they look good together, but hopefully these turn into some interesting things!
My first attempt at a complete and modular castle as an AFOL. This truly was a lifelong dream. Built for Novemburcht contest at LOWLUG.
Got to meet Manny and Nestor, 2 of the AFOLs who competed on the first season of Lego Masters at the Brick Fest Live event in Charlotte NC this past weekend. What an absolute pleasure it was to meet and chat with these two!
What started as a facelift ended up becoming a brand new mech, retaining only the spirit and the trademark gothic slopes of the original Canticle.
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.
