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.

Wandering around Portland Oregon with notable AFOLs.

Photos of a replica of a recently built fire station serving the are around Qualcomm Stadium.

This piece was inspired by a sketch that artist Vincent LeLievre had shared this past summer. I’ve interpreted his sketch in LEGO and have added details that are typical of my building style.

For me, the piece follows the direction of my work "A Vanishing Brooklyn" in that it is based on the mingling of two architectural styles. Here, we have the older, weathered façade and first floor, maintained and sustained, with the addition of more contemporary modules built upward and on to it. Also, included are the green roof elements from Vincent’s original sketch, which I’ve interpreted to also elicit the ‘sustained’ aspect of this piece. I am really happy with the results here. Much like "A Vanishing Brooklyn", this piece was inspired by another artists concept and I knew I wanted to interpret it the moment I saw it. Enjoy!

Lego moc

1997’s Robo Raider! Check out this old LEGO Mech from a space sub-theme that I hardly remember!

I was a huge fan of the Space theme through the entirety of the 90’s, and was probably collecting the most LEGO of my childhood around ‘97, but when I came across this sub-theme I have a blind spot.

Exploriens? for sure. Insectoids and UFO? I was all about it. Robo Raiders? Never heard of ‘em.

Enough of my potential forgetful-ness, check out this funky robot.

This whole theme had some pretty rad prints, awesome neon transparent elements, and really cool mini-figs!

More RoboForce and older Space sets to be featured soon!

Pirates Lego MOC with downsized Imperial Flagship

My first attempt at a complete and modular castle as an AFOL. This truly was a lifelong dream. Built for Novemburcht contest at LOWLUG.

Celebrating the arrival of a Captain Jack Sparrow minifig from Bricklink with a quick little MOC of a scene at the docks. Also trying my best to learn some basic photo editing skills, so sort of a double whammy.

Flat Tommy stands in front of the completed Bricks of Character display, echoing Fleshy Tommy from one year ago.

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.

And here I am at the Novegro Hobby Model Expo for the official presentation of my new (and first!) book dedicated to Italian historic trains that I reproduced with Lego. The volume also contains instructions for building two versions of the E 424 locomotive, shown on the cover, at 7 and 3 stud.

This was created as a LUG challenge to build something in microscale on a 16 x16 stud plate. I love microscale creations so I jumped at the chance to do this one. Fun parts used here are the chain used as the bridge over the waterfall, hot dogs for palm trees, and minifig epaulets for the sailboat.

Set looked like a corporate display model, so replaced all the grey containers with a colourful collection to look more like a working ship.

To the base at the Olympic site

A rebuild and duplication of my original 7TP I posted to Instagram a couple years ago. I also got some new led lights for Christmas and am still messing around with them, so I apologize for the inconsistent lighting between the photos.
