I believe that a long walk and a calm conversation is an incredible
combination if you want to build a bridge to a successful relationship.
Architecture is a way of translating dreams into the real world.

Jack-up barge Haven Seajack 1 assembled and waiting for a weather window to go to Fair Isle according to Marine Traffic, I am guessing this will be part of the civil engineering works to determine the best location to build the Fair Isle's first Ro/Ro ferry terminal. This has been directly funded by the UK government by way of their "Levelling Up Fund" The project has been awarded approx. £27,000,000. Some people have commented about the politics of the UK government funding projects in Scotland rather than giving the money to the Scottish government. *This post is not political* It is merely to show the barge and what the reason for it is in Orkney. Fair Isle is the winner, no matter who pays for the work. *Please do not post any political comments - just be happy that the people of Fair Isle are finally going to get served by a Ro/Ro ferry instead of Lo/Lo [lift on/off] for more info see

Clambering men in big bad boots
Dug up my den, dug up my roots.
Treated us like plasticine town
They built us up and knocked us down.
From Meccano to Legoland,
Here they come with a brick in their hand,
Men with heads filled up with sand,
Let's build.

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? :)
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
In recent times, people tend to discard faulty items rather than mend and fix. Quite a lot has changed during this pandemic. I know many people, myself included, that picked up a brush and started painting. Not on canvas, but on walls, skirting boards and bannisters. People learned how to fix bikes and mend other households items. There are other things that still need to be tweaked. From public procurement to economic inequalities in different parts of the world and let us not forget environmental issues, such as air and water pollution, ozone depletion, and biodiversity loss. Fixing those is not an easy task.
Other things, such as architectural ruins, rusty boats or decayed bridges, are beautiful and just await to be photographed, like this building which has never been completed. There is something infinitely compelling in objects that have seen better days, items that are rusty or have fallen into disrepair. I see it as a destructive sublime, and always wonder about the history of such items. Photographing ruins has become a popular genre, and I can understand why as one can capture the impossibility of holding back time, where photographing such objects can speculate on other states of existence. It can also indicate on our own physical fragility.
To me, it is all about fixing a moment in time.
Arthur's Vault:
A tweaked and re-rendered build. Arthur's Vault contains numerous artefacts, weapons and other curios that Arthur has either retrieved, discovered or kept locked away from prying eyes.
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!

View of Cebu city from the SM Seaside mall. I didn't notice all the cranes on top of the buildings until I started processing the photo.
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.

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.
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.
