combination if you want to build a bridge to a successful relationship.

From Wikipedia
Motors Limited (later known as the Leyland Motor Corporation) was a British vehicle manufacturer of lorries, buses and trolleybuses.
Founded: 1896; 126 years ago (as Lancashire Steam Motor Company)
Leyland Motors has a long history dating from 1896, when the Sumner and Spurrier families founded the Lancashire Steam Motor Company in the town of Leyland in North West England. Their first products included steam powered lawn mowers.The company's first vehicle was a 1.5-ton-capacity steam powered van. This was followed by a number of undertype steam wagons using a vertical fire-tube boiler. By 1905 they had also begun to build petrol-engined wagons. The Lancashire Steam Motor Company was renamed Leyland Motors in 1907 when it took over Coulthards of Preston, who had been making steam wagons since 1897. They also built a second factory in the neighbouring town of Chorley which still remains today as the headquarters of the Lex Autolease and parts company.

Once builded as a capitel from Mughal Akbar finished in 1571.
But strategically unsuited and often confronted with watershortage the city was left from the Mughal (and his 300 concubines). Nowadays the town is in a very good condition.

1571 wurde diese Stadt als Hauptstadt unter Großmogul Akbar fertig gestellt. Sie erwies sich als strategisch ungeeignet und litt unter Wassermangel. So wurde sie vom Großmogul (und seinen 300 Konkubinen) verlassen und befindet sich heute noch in einem erstklassigen Zustand.
So for anyone who hasn't heard yet MELO 2017 is happening at the end of this month! :D
I'm pretty excited because I wasn't able to enter any of the previous Middle Earth Lego Olympics. So I decided I would do a bit of practice and make a really small little build. Might make some more at some point before the contest.
Part of the reason I made this was to try getting better at building, so if any of you want I'm looking for comments about what I could improve and what I did well. (Not just "Nice build" comments).
I'm also curious to know who else is entering MELO this year? :)
This is Sem.
Sem was one of the Norwegian forest cats that we used to own. He must've been one of the most beloved and easiest going cat I've ever owned. He certainly was a special one. Being the one whom had been put in last place amongst his brothers and sisters, the owners that wanted to put him down, as they didn't see any potential in him, due to his somewhat smaller than usual shape and body build.
The little man wouldn't survive his days for much longer if it wasn't for us to take him home with us.
Sem grown out to be one strong boy, his warm heart and kindness allowed us to bond with him with an incredibly tight relationship. He totally beaten the expectations from the breeders, as the little lion within himself pulled him through his difficult childhood and fortunately, happy adult life.
Growing up seeing two of our German Shepherd pets as fellow housemates whom were no trouble at all with each other, especially with the last one whom he bonded with quite tightly.
Sem shall me missed, sadly didn't make the move to our new house in a smaller town from the big city. Which I'm sure he would've loved the large garden to play around in.

I just like this house set against a blue sky. It's a new build in Burns beach area. Overlooking the sea. Perth, Western Australia
This is a trend apparently and I figured why not?
But yeesh, I gotta build more! This is more or less a collection of everything I've built for the past year, specifically the things I think are worth showing again. Largely, this is my Forms of Gotham collection, which has rather put me off building brick figures for a while honestly...all that said, the experience of building them and seeing people's reactions towards them at Brickworld Chicago were worth all the tens of hours I spend on them.
And All the Powers of Hell was another highlight, although to be honest it did fall to the back of my mind--despite winning the Vignette award I've been hunting for years. Still, it has a place in my heart and as such is still constructed and boxed away for BW '17. Aside from the figures Batman, Catwoman, and Penguin, its the only thing that remains of my '16 Convention tour builds.
My Alien and Predators builds are something I'm proud of, even though they totally point out how I can change focus on a dime whenever anyone mentions Predators or posts a Xenomorph. To wit, I've been secretly hive building for the past half year; building another queen, gathering eggs, makin' drones, hunting down those elusive black minifigure binoculars, all for the inevitable time when I'll need them. At the moment I'm planning on building Alien something for BW '17, although that might just be the amazing Covenant trailer speaking! So no promises yet!
Before I get into the future, I first want to note the wonderful experiences I had this year with my friends at Eurobricks, both online and especially in person, as we constructed our group collab for Brickworld, Ready Set Escargot!. We put tons of hours into a truly collaborative effort and finally getting the win was icing on the cake. As we look forward to next year's build, I hope that we can continue that awesome tradition! Incidentally, I don't have any pictures of my Snail, but I made the sand blue viking one, if anyone is wondering.
---
Onto the future, one of the reasons I've not appeared to be building much (specifically in the later half) of 2016, is because I'm building for 2017! Right now I'm finishing some colorful magazine builds, but I've also locked down my convention layout concept for next year, one that'll use a lot of colors I normally wouldn't touch with a ten foot poll-- yellow, red, and orange. Brick figures will be minimal, at least until 2018, and I'm also planning two separate series of builds of the superhero variety. Either way, I can't wait to get started!
And finally, thank you to everyone for your support!

I tried to recreate this scene with the little bricks i have, because i liked this scene a lot. I know the helmet isn't accurate nor the ATAT's legpiece but it was fun to build it... I hope you all enjoy!!

Black-faced Cuckoo-shrike
≠======================≠
The Black-faced Cuckoo Shrike builds a small nest in "Y" on a branch. Tiny sticks and cobweb are the major elements.
No fancy sides or adornments. The young sit down in the nest and generally are unseen.
Excerpt from scotiabankcontactphoto.com/2022/core/vid-ingelevics-ryan-...:
Since 2019, Toronto-based artists Vid Ingelevics and Ryan Walker have charted the progression of the Port Lands Flood Protection Project, one of the most ambitious civil works projects in North America. This third series of photographs, presented on wooden structures along the Villiers Street median, focuses on the extraordinary operation of building a new mouth for the Don River and the careful methodology employed in the naturalization of a massive industrial brownfield.
The first photographic series that Ingelevics and Walker produced about this site, titled Framework (2020), captured the buildings and structures demolished to make way for the river excavation. This demolition allowed for the massive movement of soil captured in the second series, A Mobile Landscape (2021). How to Build a River documents how this soil removal made way for the river to be constructed using bio-engineering practices. It reveals the innovative bioengineering techniques used to construct this complex ecology and its multiple engineering layers, which will soon be invisible—either submerged underwater or beneath park surfaces—when the project is finished.
As the excavation has proceeded and workers have brought materials to the site and carefully categorized, prepared, and positioned them, Ingelevics and Walker have witnessed the river’s path quickly taking shape. The images in this series follow the rigorous steps taken to protect the new riverbed and future ecosystem, with multiple layers of sand, charcoal, and impermeable geosynthetic clay liner added to block contaminants caused by almost a century of housing fuel storage tanks in the Port Lands. The photographs capture the ways in which the new riverbanks (known as “crib walls”) were stabilized with logs, tree trunks, rocks, and coconut fibre material, and track the meticulous creation of future habitats for fish and birds.
Fish Habitat (2019) shows the development of a new riparian habitat, which includes coloured streamers strung across the water to deter geese from landing and eating vegetation that will provide food for fish. In Stratified River Ingredients (2021) a worker strides past stepped blankets of biodegradable coconut fabric, which will help hold the riverbank soil together until plant root systems are in place. In this series the new river comes to life. Its plants and banks, its roots and rocks and sands can all be seen coming together in Meander (2021). All of these innovative bioengineering techniques have been employed in similar projects around the world where nature is fast-tracked, but it’s unusual to have so many techniques applied simultaneously, and on such a vast scale.
At times during this massive project, something as small as an unidentified plant can halt construction. Transplanting #1 and #2 (2021) show crews salvaging plants for storage after strange, bulrush-like plants sprouted unexpectedly after 100 years of dormancy underground. These were likely remnants of the site’s original wetlands, which germinated when sunlight hit the excavated mud. Some of the plants were taken to a greenhouse laboratory at the University of Toronto, and others were transplanted to the Leslie Street Spit, located nearby along the waterfront. Even with the most meticulously planned naturalization processes, nature can still surprise us.
Following their documentation of the processes of destruction and removal required to prepare the site, this third series of work in Ingelevics and Walker’s multi-year project allows viewers to witness the construction of these new, interconnected habitats and structures. Their photographs offer glimpses into the makings of a highly creative built ecology, one that has looked to nature in order to artificially recreate it.
It's finished. I seem to have forgotten to order the blue 6x6 dish that will go on those studs on the top, but otherwise it's all done bar the stickers. Sorry these photos are crap, but I don't know when I will get to take decent ones.
For my first convention, it was a blast. As for the build, I procrastinated a bunch on the middle building, but overall the diorama pleases me very much.
It was super rad meeting everyone who is tagged below, and we are planning on doing something next year (hint - hint). I helped Elijah put grass on his build for about an hour :D
I got my hands on some nice items by trading and such, and an abundance of memes were passed around. Sprue, mongolian, the free build section, and others in which we do not utter here.
I hope to see some more of you guys next year!!!!!!!!
My MOC card got cut off.
The picture is atrocious.
Anton didn't come :::::::::::::::(((((((((((
