The Weltwagen SS5 it’s a sports car with mid-engine - modern, aggressive, reliable, combine power and advanced technology to become master on the road and track.
I designed this MOC car to be 5 studs wide, thus fulfilling my understanding of the optimal proportions of vehicles in my Lego city.
These friendly guys live in fruit gardens where they hide among bushes and foliage. Have you never spotted them? Well, they are very shy and absolutely terrified of humans...
Characters based on doodle from my sketch pad.
The first of the reshoots for my revamp series of the BIONICLE stars line. Takanuva was the first of the revamps, having done him as a one off revamp originally.
In addition to multiple gearing ratios, now there are multiple sizes as well. The green has 2 axles, the blue has 3 axles, and the red has 4 axles. While 5 or more axle variants certainly are possible, they are outside the scope of my project.
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.
I wanted to create a hunting trophy to include in my upcoming diorama, the kind of thing that would be mounted above a fireplace. A lion would have been an obvious choice, a dragon head would be even better… but then it came to me. Why not create a chimera, mythical creature that combines a lion, a dragon, and a goat for good measure? So, here it is. Proving once again that three heads are better than one.
I put together the first version of the lego set 10281 bonsai tree. Was a fun little build and I have a perfect place for it. Will update the leaves in the spring.
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).

Lilium Eco House [WIP] is named after the lily flower. It is an eco-house with solar panels on the roof, large windows facing south and west, vegetables growing in the conservatory, high levels of insulation and daylight and material absorbing the warmth of the sun. Yet, it is a comfortable house with open social areas and modern design.
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.
The Courier is a 4-wheel variant of the Scavrat Runner, designed for speed and extreme range. Couriers are dispatched between Union bases when rapid communication is key, and are the go-to for missions into Cathedral. It sports supplementary fuel tanks, nitrous oxide, and extensive onboard repair gear.
This is the series where I reveal the brick lights within. The two fang position is able to push downward from the main face to create a intimidating affect to its enemy. Once everything is clear out, you'll see a big orange-red glow light that act as a main eyes for the mecha beast to scan afar inn the battle scene (sort of infra red)
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...
It's been a while since I've posted anything. I've been super busy during the holidays. But today I want to share with you a few my favorite photos I took for the Harry Potter Hogwarts feature in the December 2016 issue of Blocks Magazine. The Hogwarts build itself was a combination of official LEGO sets and MOC's built by Block's very talented Daniel Konstanski and photographed by yours truly. Hope you enjoy!

3rd Version if IX! Now much more accurate to how I envision/draw her. Super happy with how this came out, especially her blade.
Face design inspired by several of Eero Okkonen's builds. IX's specific version of said face by IonicNova.
Well, I am now 18, and by some arbitrary decision made years ago which is now policy, I am considered an adult. According to tradition, I can now call myself an AFOL. I am very excited to cross this threshold, although it means very little in the real world. I can now join the local LUG though, so that's something.
Since this is a milestone, I want to say a quick thank you to everyone who's been an active participant in my Lego adventures. I've made friendships here with people all over the globe, and have developed my communication skills, self-confidence, art appreciation, and design capabilities to a great degree. I owe a special thank you to my first friends on Lego Ideas who really jumpstarted my love for the hobby. I also want to thank the fine lady and gentlemen of the good ol' Private Club, and especially all the awesome folks on my Random Access team. Thanks furthermore to the people from KeithLUG who I've gotten to know recently. Together, all of you have helped advance one part of my life to adulthood, and given me great perspective about the world at large. I am very pleased to know each one of you.
Just as a footnote, I was wondering the other day if I would end up having a dark ages. Currently my life is about as busy as it can get, but that has only fuelled my desire for more Lego. Also, for my birthday this year I received my first Star Wars UCS set and a humble bundle pack of Lego books. Yep, my birthday gifts were entirely Lego. Something tells me I'll be sticking around the hobby for a good while. :)
So that's that! If you read everything I just wrote, I owe you an extra thank you. Thanks for being such great people and friends!
Your friend,
Caleb Inman aka VAkkron
Brickworld is still hands down the best week of the year for me, nothing even comes close. Getting to witness the incredible creativity and passion that it takes to put together such amazing displays is truly special. But its the people you meet and the friends you make that bring me back each and every year. You all challenge me to be a better builder each year and motivate me to do my best.
I've done enough of these recap posts that I don't think I need to specify the people that made this year awesome. You know who you are. So thank you to all the returning friends, it was great to see you, catch up, and marvel at your fabulous builds. To the new people who came for the first time, it was great meeting you and I hope you had such an amazing time that you will be back very soon!
The monkey-wrench that got thrown in was a ton of us got sick, which I know limited some of my plans for the week. Hopefully everyone who caught it is getting plenty of rest and gets over it soon! Sorry if you got it from me, I just wanted to hang out with all you awesome people <3.
Only 357 days until next year!
