Malayan Railway 1970s Cream & Chocolate Coach. An absolute fan of the older coaches, not only do they look great but there's something cute about how round these coaches were. Was fun to find a way to make the roof look that round.
Also, am definitely going broke at the rate I'm designing and building new LEGO trains.
Couldn't find much photos. Here are some snippets of the actual coach:

Nice and cheerful then... non lego wings (D.I.Y) but right sort of size for the fig, imo , they cost ..... £1 yay.(plus paint) this was just a quick build to see if the wings worked, hope to do a bigger scene when i get time.
This is not a new MOC sadly just a quick updated and revisit my old Fighter plane the FB12 FOXBAT FIGHTER Mark II. Found some old pictures and yet unpublished here.
Build way back in the late 2013 after I decided to upgraded the Foxbat Mark I which i thought could do better in term of design. Fold out gun cannon, landing gear, flap wing, hidden missiles below bay and LED light on the cockpit. One of the first MOC plane i did attempt to make with LED light!
This Foxbat was finally upgraded in2014. Another MOC version of it? Mark III? Maybe ;) Let me know what do you think?
FUN FACTS: Oh I did uploaded this Foxbat MOC in LEGOIdeas but couldn’t even make it to a thousand but i got a lot of good feedbacks and i do appreciated it. My MOC is one of kind.
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 MOC was spesially redisigned to make it more strong and easy-to-build.
It consist 1417 pieses, instruction is 115 pages.

Wow, this is my 5th year in review post! I'd say 2014 was probably my busiest year yet ...and not just in terms of the builds.
THE BUILDS
Two builds went uber-viral this year...
- Back in March, my version of the Twitter-breaking Ellen Oscar Selfie got picked up in the media storm. But the big surprise was Ellen featuring it on the show herself.
- Then there was my DOOM diorama. I decided it was time to man up (or should that be ShiP up?) and create something really huge for a change. Took me all summer, too. And while the build got plenty of media attention, and was a big hit at BrickCon, what people really latched onto was my silly 2-minute fly-thru video! Tsk, people.
Anyway, thanks mainly to these two builds, my lifetime Flickr views skyrocketed from 2M up to almost 6M. Which was nice.
THE SHENANEGANS
So much other LEGO mischief this year too...
- At Emerald City Comic Con, I unveiled my two MLP builds and managed to get the voice actors to sign them. Then terrified everyone with my full body pony cosplay!
- At BrickCon I unveiled the Obama interview video, in which the President's AFOL status is revealed, to the amusement of the Con audience.
- The Kraken was wrecked in an office move, so I had to bring it home and rebuild it. With a few upgrades, naturally. We call him Steven Austin now.
- Thanks to Tommy's nomination, I jumped on the much-frowned-upon ALS Ice Bucket video challenge bandwagon. And took over his show in the process.
AND THE GOINGS-ON
- Joe foolishly let me and Tommy Williamson co-edit an issue of BrickJournal focusing on Bricks of Character. Writing articles is hard enough, but I wasn't prepared for the amount of work it takes to interview other builders. And I did six of them. But I'm very pleased with the end result. Go buy a copy now!
- At the Seattle film festival we finally got to see the new LEGO documentary (which features quite a few Seattle builders). Pleased to say it is really well made. Tommy's animation was excellent. And I get my own theme music for my segment! We were even invited on-stage after each screening to take audience questions. Looking forward to its general release early next year.
- Josh and Matt's channel Beyond the Brick goes from strength to strength, and I was honored to give them a helping hand this year by offering personalized LEGO busts as a top-tier reward for their Brickworld Kickstarter project. I also had fun taking part in their 24-hour charity live stream, where I invited people to don wigs to raise extra money, and built a MOC on-air based on a random topic of their choice.
- I was given the opportunity to contribute a panel to the Pieces Project, which is attempting to set a new world record for the comic with the most contributing artists. My panel was, of course, made of LEGO! Such a fun experience, to be part of something bigger, and to see my work alongside that of 'real' artists.
- And last but not least, my old friends Andrew and Josh asked me to help them out with this little LEGO blog they run called the Brothers Brick. Perfect timing really, as I had just retired The Living Brick. Being a one-man-band is hard work (ask Tommy!), so it's a nice change to be part of a larger group of diverse contributors, that can get so much more accomplished.
- What else? Erm, one of my builds may have won a contest, and a couple may have appeared in some books. Yeah, it's sickening, and I'm such a fucking blow-hard! But Wil Wheaton still isn't returning my calls. So I have that to be thankful for.

In case you've ever wondered how Santa manages to deliver all these presents in a single night. Well, he's got his squad of little helpers and they can build him SPACE SLEIGH!!! 😉🎅🚀

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.
Made a weapon for my AMS 06 JE Jebat which I like to present to you Gebar ARG 4
Assault Rifle gun. Comes with a detachable magazine. Comes with a periscope for better aiming at target from a distance. Original there is a foldable resting bar design here but omitted in last minute due to design issue. Disclaimer I am not promoting violence with gun.
Cherry Loft House MOC (still work in progress) is a contemporary summer house with a large sloping roof and sleeping loft.
After a detour on the planet Ademis I have now returned to modern architecture. Dark red, white and black are the main colours of this house. Fully interiored with several cozy corners to read a book.
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.

This is my rendition of the STAP from Episode 1 - The Phantom Menace. It is one of my favorite vehicles from the Star Wars universe and is a project I've been wanting to do for years. I hope you enjoy!
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...
Finished version. This is part of a collaboration project where members are building chess pieces. I have created the knight figure for the medieval team (in white). This model demands a lot from those back legs. Each is mounted to a turn table to get that angle and then resting on a singe 45 degree angled stud. Clutch Power!!
My contribution to #BMDWeapons Dora SR 44 Sniper Rifles.
This sniper rifles gun completely acquired with a bench rest quality stainless steel barrel. The DORA SR 44 has a detachable box magazine and an adjustable stock, both length of pull and deadly accurate from afar. The 3-yellow marking on the barrel gun indicate the kills score by the gunner.
I usually build houses and furniture in minifigure scale and asked myself if it would be possible to create even smaller furniture. Tiny Room MOC is my first try...
My wife is a wildlife biologist and although she has never worked with them, she has a special place in her heart for Great Blue Herons. We have more heron photos, painting and sculptures in our house than I care to admit.
She had asked me many times to make a heron out of Lego, but I just didn't think I could do it justice. However; when LEGO released the King Fisher and a few key parts were released in the colours I needed, I decided to give it a go!
BTW - I didn't edit out any supports. The heron is standing on one leg and is balanced by the bent lag and one reed in the back. It is surprisingly stable!
I made some changes to the knight I originally designed for a chess collaboration changing the base and updating the armor to use metallic gray to give it a more authentic look.. I then modified the base to give it a bit more height and drama. This is now up for support on LEGO Ideas.

This time I decided to challenge myself to design a small American-inspired pickup truck. I have always found this style surprisingly fun and interesting. It was a refreshing change, but it still had the same compact proportions and practicality I like to design.
