[Sound on] I finished my build for this month’s RLUG (Sacramento Brick Builders) challenge: Create a bouquet or skyscraper. So I made an animation of the Soilent Green flower shop. I hear the flower arrangements are quite edible… just not so many returning customers for some reason…
This was lots of fun to do and animate. I designed everything in Bricklink Studio and textured and animated using Cinema 4D with Octane and Greyscalegorilla Light Kit Pro 3. I finished the video in After Effects with my own vocal sound effects and a song by DapperChapMusic, composed by Michael Collings. All of this was possible because of the awesome computer from Puget Systems.
Hope you like it. “Soilent Green is LEGO minifigures!!!”

It took nearly four years (mostly due to a three-year hiatus in the middle), but I finally finished the interior of my custom City Hall

These guys rock. The workshop was a great way to meet people from all over the world! There were actually 8-9 AFOLs there, though, which was a good number I think.
1993’s Blizzard Baron enters the LEGO City from Ive Planet 2002!
An OG Hoth snowspeeder, who doesn’t love that?
This set has a couple classic Ice Planet prints, cool minifig with accessories, and a decent amount of neon transparent orange elements for a little ship!
Not only is it a capable little snowspeeder, but it has a detachable communications base/portable science lab. Simple, but a good use of a few parts to bring more story elements to a small build.
I’m happy to have this guy added to my Ice Planet 2002 fleet. Did you have this set? Does it hold up as interesting to a modern audience? Anyone know why it’s also called the Ice Planet Vx122?
I’ll be looking at more retro LEGO soon, including more Space!

Finished version. This is part of a collaboration project where members are building chess pieces. I have created the knight figure for the medieval team (in white). This model demands a lot from those back legs. Each is mounted to a turn table to get that angle and then resting on a singe 45 degree angled stud. Clutch Power!!
About 15 hours in and I have the rough layout of the ship along with a mostly finished front end. It's about 90 studs long at the moment. Once I finish off the fighting bay and add the engines, I'm estimating a final length of about 115 studs.
This is the pencil down design on my new space hauler: The Empress
Last year I spent a good amount of time and resources designing and building the Asimov.
I was really happy with the result and told myself: Alright let's build way smaller from now and don't do it again.
But after the Brickomanie 2023 convention, I was so impressed and inspired by two large ships I saw there, that I immediately started designing this new ship the day after.
This time, no concept art were used, this is a fully original design (except for the containers shape). I love to think this ship could exist in the near future just like the Asimov.
It could fit perfectly in the sci-fi univers of "The Expanse".
It was design to be fully Plausible, with full maneuverability truster and even heat radiators.
I'm pretty sure some of you will recognize the influence of some of the best LEGO spaceship designer in it.
I started the design in bricks around the containers. Then I quickly move to Studio because, let's be honest, it's really hard to iterate with something that big.
This time, I designed it in module for two reasons:
This way it is way easier to transport (The Asimov is a nightmare, requiring a custom made plywood box that barely fit the trunk of my car).
And could be expanded as long as you have the budget.
In this current configuration the ship is:
24 050 parts
228 studs long (182.4cm)
19.6 KG

This is my first attempt at a Micropolis build, to be added to the collaborative at Brickfair Virginia this year. The building itself, despite its small size, is made of around 500 pieces (not including the base). The geometry is interesting, if you look at it all closely. The design was quite challenging. The hole in the base needed to place the building in, for example, is 19.5 plates square. That was more difficult to build than I imagined. There are three steps down from the road level, at a half plate each. Hope you enjoy.
This uses the medium size BYGGLEK box from the Lego and IKEA collaboration (PE770439). It's got a working garage with enough space for a town car and all the amenities of a great flying home.
I came up with the idea of creating diorama of mages dueling within a alchemist’s laboratory in October of 2024. The Frost Wizard was already built when Brickscalibur came around with a similar category. I then built the Flame Witch and entered the two models in that competition just for fun. The end goal was always to place them in a large diorama along with a cowering Alchemist and their familiars. I had lots of fun coming up with things to place on the shelves and creating the Chimera trophy over the fireplace. I even added a microscale version of my Mesusa’s Lair model from last year as an Easter Egg.
Six baseplates down, forty-eight to go. This is my first MOC as an AFOL, as well as the first section of my train layout.
These are mid-construction photos showing how the scales on the koi fish were designed to lay over each other. The technique involves placing D-SNOT bricks apart in half-stud spacing and then twisting their alignment about 15 degrees off center. This allow the tiles to lay on top each other without stress. It is a technique I originally used when creating the tail in Medusa's Lair.
