My favorite MOCs from the past year.

There is still something missing, an Apoca-build I did for a collab with my friends Sanel Lukovic and Robert Maier but I haven’t had the time to take pictures yet. There is also a larger „The Walking Dead“ MOC I did for the German ComicCon in Stuttgart which I‘ve never shown here on Flickr but you can check the pictures in the stream of Nadine Wölfle ;)

The past year was a blast, thanks for that great year in the LEGO/AFOL community.

I met new friends, drank some beer with old friends and improved my building skills, won some contests, helped sorting a LUGBULK (hard work for sure :D) and I’m also trying to take better pictures, maybe my efforts are visible on my last creations.

I wish you all a happy new year!

See you in 2018

Cheers 🍻

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...

Full frontal of the hangar decked out with tool boxes and ladder. At one point was going to make a Colorado flag to hang on the wall but the spacing didn't work out.

Before I disassembled this house I had to take some better photos of the interior. Here is my original description of this MOC:

"House of Three is a contemporary Scandinavian family home. I've tried to catch contemporary Scandinavian architecture in colours, floor plan and roof design. The interior and furniture in inspired by IKEA and other Scandinavian designs. Comfortable living suitable for a small family."

This is our first tentative at building a nativity scene in Lego.

We faced many obstacles: colors, parts, ideas, etc. but we had really so much fun!

Blue Striped House is a U-shaped house inspired by contemporary Scandinavian architecture. Blue, tan and grey stripes. Small windows form irregular patterns and let the sun light create life in the living room, guest bedroom and dining area. All rooms have clean and modern furnishings. The house has three entrances through the living room, kitchen and laundry room. A windling staircase lead to the master bedroom upstairs.

Outside you may notice signs of late summer or early autumn. Brown, green, orange and red colours.

It's Over! But I was just too tired after the last week to even post any updates.

I'm really happy with the event, over five days we had over 700 visitors, and surprisingly, we had 53 contestants in our MOCing contest :D . We were aired on four national television posts, and numerous newspapers. I had a great time, the kids had a great time, and the parents had a great time, and would like to do this sometimes soon (just not with the same AFOLs ;).

Here is the gallery of pictures taken at the event, the SW display, other highlights, and children s MOCs

There are also pictures of the MOC posters that were at the event with the help of all of you. I just want to mention that in the end I had to cut down on the number of pictures due to the posters being small as they were. I apologize to those of you who can't find your MOCs on the posters, but your contribution is nonetheless appreciated, and it would be amazing to continue this kind of tradition at other events where foreign builders can not attend. Just a thought.

Love is the Air :)

Here's my faithful upscaled version of the minifig scale toolbox, but here's the twist! Instead of classic hardware, it contains LEGO themed goodies - resembling real world tools - that I believe would be helpful for any MOC creators.

You can support it on LEGO ideas: beta.ideas.lego.com/product-ideas/739dfb47-3e81-4e92-912a...

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.

Pirates Lego MOC with downsized Imperial Flagship

After an abysmal 2016, it was nice to get back into the saddle and crank out a lotta stuff over the course of 2017. So much so that I have had to split my yearly review into two parts, one for LEGO builds, and one for YouTube videos!

Missed this the first time around. I had been collecting parts, but was able to pick up the official set during a re-release. I still have two alternatives to build when I finally collect all the parts.

Baby bed with baby and rabbit.

After spending several days breaking down and sorting the giant tub of bricks from all the MOCs that I massively destroyed at the end of BrickCon, I finally got round to sorting through all the other post-Con detritus. Sure, we all came away with reasonable hauls of free Lego sets. But it's the unique or personal momentos really count. Each little treasure is labelled with a note to explain it's significance.

Inspiration comes from the strangest of places sometimes. Usually a picture you see in passing, or an idea in your head, this for me was a song. Dark and unknown Vide Noir comes at you from the shadows of your mind wondering, what if I never come back again? Sadness comes to the forefront, but what if their is hope beyond the veil, the satisfying end to a life well lived?

Many nights have I heard her voice

Whisper my name without making a noise

Calling out from a pure, black void

Tears of sorrow or tears of joy

Drops in my cup as my mind is destroyed

Staring into a pure, black void

So what if I'm living out past the edge?

So what if I never come back again?

Many evils have I enjoyed

Prowling the night raising hell with the boys

Getting high on a pure, black void

I am only an aimless soul

Heading into a pure, black void

So what if I'm living out past the edge?

So what if I never come back again?
