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.

Connecticut Southern CSO-5 builds it’s train in Hartford Yard with what is widely considered the best possible lashup to get on this railroad by buffs in the area. Former LMX B39-8E #8530 leading, and then after that P&W B23-7R “Super 7” #2215 trailing second, 2215 is the only Super 7 operational outside of Ohio as well (8/17/22).

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 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!

Photographing landscapes around sunrise and sunset is often filled with anticipation. Wondering whether the light will be "epic" or will you get skunked.

 

Join me in Palouse June 13-16 and we'll chase light and find scenes like this! Link: jimpatterson.photo/palouse

This one might take a while. No quick-build spells…

After getting a few copies of Wrecking Ball, I knew I had to use some of the lovely sand green printed elements. Plus I’ve had these dark orange cement mixer shells for a bit, and thought they could tie in nicely for another Febrovery model. Then once getting those key elements into roughly this configuration, I basically just filled remaining gaps.

And of course added space for Hammond and another hamster friend in the cabin!

Has to have been one of my quickest builds in some time.

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.

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!!!!!!!!
