The Night Protector, even though she is mostly considered to be good she does have bad temper and you better mind your manners.
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 Found some old pictures and yet unpublished here.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.

10th build in my Iron Builder round against LittleJohn, using the Toy Winder Key part in dark orange.

This build is created exclusively with parts from the LEGO Architecture set Las Vegas (21047). I got that set from my husband as a Christmas gift and couldn't help experimenting a bit...
A different view of my Torre Dorada MOC, a tribute to the classic LEGO Pirates sets I dreamt of as a child.
I wanted to keep the aesthetic and the charm of those sets, but to use some modern, advanced building techniques as well. So I went for the hexagonal shape with lots of building on a side ;)
Despite its unusual geometry, it can open up (it splits in half) to reveal interior detail (soon I will post more photos showcasing them).

Scandinavian Sea House MOC is a small - but functional - house by the sea. It is shaped like an L and located somewhere in the Swedish archipelago. Downstairs you find a small TV-room and kitchen next to a guest room and a laundry room. A storage space is hidden underneath the staircase, that leads up to the master bedroom. And now we come to the best part - the home spa! Here you find a Turkish bath and resting chairs in a peaceful environment with a panorama sea view. Double glass doors lead to the roof terrace outside.
Hidden Home Park is an underground modern, sustainable home hidden in a green park. Trees, bushes and flowers. A roof and an atrium garden. Kitchen garden with herbs. Three patios with lots of windows. Two ponds and a bench where you can meditate. Two bee hives symbolize the symbiosis of animals, plants and humans.
It is my entry to the Swebrick contest Master Builder of the Year 2017 ending on March 1st 2018.
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.
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!
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.

My first attempt at a complete and modular castle as an AFOL. This truly was a lifelong dream. Built for Novemburcht contest at LOWLUG.
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.
The Sturm Faust is a hand-held rocket propelled grenade. The warhead is carried a shaped charge full of TNT that will create a devastating results which will disable a enemy mecha mobility. Once the warhead was fired a folded stabilizing fins will be deploy for stability as they left the launch tube. It had a pedal-like lever near the projectile that ignited the propellant when squeezed. One downside of this weapon is that since it's a non-guided weapon, it is difficult to hit targets with high mobility especially for Mistel.
Seven MOCs this year woooo! Kind of a slower year this time. I got very caught up with some other projects that may or may not see the light of day in the future depending on how they turn out. Turns out writing a book takes a lot of time, hence my absence for the last several months and (probably) the next few as well.
I'm genuinely happy with all of these this year. I've gotten to experiment with some ideas I've been wanting to do for ages, so it's been fun getting those out into the open. From left to right, top to bottom:
Western Ash Dragon
Children of the Mountain
Iva, the Red Coven's Blade
The Temple of the Immortal Serpent
Dr. Gila
Vastt
Flower Field Fox
See ya'll next year maybe.
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.
