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!
This past weekend I celebrated my 18th birthday. This meant crossing the threshold between a TFOL to a full-fledged AFOL, or Adult Fan of Lego. In March of 2006, I created my first account on a Lego fan site, the since deceased Minifig Customization Network. From there I was introduced to the incredible online community of both minifig customizers and Lego builders, and began to fill my own Brickshelf page. My first few years online were mainly spent sculpting helmets and custom pieces, and drawing decals in Photoshop and Illustrator. It was Lego that pushed me to teach myself such programs, as well as develop an interest in Photography. In 2008 I would travel to Seattle to attend my first Lego convention, BrickCon. Since then I have traveled across the country to five conventions over the past three years, meeting some of my closest friends and participating in huge collaborative builds.
This past June I graduated from High School, finished my last cross country and volleyball seasons, earned my Eagle Scout award, and will be attending Brigham Young University in the fall. As an admission essay, I wrote the following;
1. Describe any special interests and/or passions and give examples of how you have developed knowledge and/or creativity in these areas.
200 words or less
By the time I started high school, it was clear I wasn’t destined to be a typical teen. Teenagers are not supposed to play with Lego. But, like the tiny plastic bricks themselves, something clicked inside me and building with Lego became much more than child’s play. Lego bricks became my medium of choice as I began creating intricate works of art and engineering. To my surprise, I was far from alone. As my landing craft, troop transports, and apocalyptic vignettes began to receive praise and publication in dozens of blogs and websites around the globe, I connected with the AFOL Adult Fan of Lego community, a talented group of artists and engineers who've reimagined what can be done with these deceptively simple bricks. When I attended my first “BrickCon” in Seattle, Washington, I met many of these inspirational builders face to face for the first time. Since then, I’ve been lucky enough to travel to numerous events from coast-to-coast displaying my individual works and collaborating on large-scale projects. With each experience, I've further developed my talents and my sense of self. Typical teen, or not, I’m a conceptual artist, building the world as I see it, brick-by-brick.
I don't know what I'm planning to do with my Lego when I get to college, but I know that without Lego in my life over the past 5 years, I would not have gotten to this point.
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 ;).
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.
The iconic racing car, Jägermeister branded. Pretty straight forward build, playable and sturdy.

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.

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.

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.
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?
Vide Noir - Lord Huron
She’s a doctor, not a brick layer!
As Nova Team’s chief medical officer, Dr. Volaris is always there to care for the crew’s medical needs and to patch them up after mission. Something they give her ample opportunities to do.
She takes her job extremely seriously and professionally. That being said, she also has a very caring bedside manner. She cares deeply about the well-being of her patients, whomever they might be. Friend, foe, or a new life form in need of help.

I was just experimenting around with the new 6 wide measure. Cars look pretty cool like that.
I was inspired from the set 60113 in the first place.
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.
Just because you turn off the lights, that doesn’t mean they need to stop working!

White skyscrapers are rising from the cloud shaped island. Many people. Not so much space. Air tube transport. Glass and greenery.
So this MOC Speeder Bike its made for LSB CONTEST 2021 - "Let's Get Tropical!" www.flickr.com/groups/legospeederbikes/ and it's my entry for "Musically Inspired" category. The speeder its build around 53549: Bionicle Foot Toa Inika Elliptical, www.bricklink.com/v2/catalog/catalogitem.page?P=53549&...
Hope enjoy it. :)
In the future a new earth-like planet - named Ademis - is discovered. A group of people with different skills is sent to Ademis to live there and examine the pre-conditions for a larger colony to be established.
This is a health care module with a garden passage, examination area, treatment room and surgery room.
My previous MOC Part I is a habitat example module. My aim is to build further example modules to visualize the various functions of the colony.
About one year ago I published pictures of this MOC for the first time. My first modern home. Since then I've built many and it has become "my thing". A couple of days ago I looked at my old photos of Green Rock House and wasn't really satisfied with them. That is the reason I now publish some shots with better light setting.

Green Rock House is divided into three parts connected with hinges and technic pins. The roof of each floor can be taken off.
The house has full interior with a living room, kitchen, bedroom, music corner, bathroom and gym.
