The "Ace of Spades"
Had fun making this version a few weeks back.
All guns by Brickarms.
Got more Nam models already on the way!
This lifesize model of a blowfish was made for the Iron Forge 2025 competition, where contestants have to use a seed part in creative ways. The seed part for the first round was any of a number of mudguards. One of them, I realised, really looked like a fishes mouth when put together, and that sent me down the pathway of creating this beauty.
More pictures in the album.
Made another bike! Didn't think I could make a smaller bike given previous versions and limitations when only working with few parts. However I managed to get these tyres to fit and thats lowered the bike once more plus some new parts and techniques.
A group shot of Mattias G's Skyrim, Stormcloak design.
I love these figures as they feature great high quality printing on legs and torso.
The figure includes:
Custom printed torso and legs
LEGO sword
and LEGO head and long hair.
FM me if interest or figures are available for purchase on e- bay.

Build number three for the third round of the Iron Forge 2025!
Really happy with how this one came together, and how fast it did as well! The seed part, flower stem with three prongs was used 22 times. Four for the rake, and 18 old-school ones for the pruned leaves of the tree.
My ww2 US motorbike..had to come up with more than just a colour change from my german motorbike..as it just wouldn t cut it..so more npu..which in odg and at this size/scale ain t easy :-)
Got two kits and painted one of them up.
Does anyone know where to get more sidan batarangs? cant seem to find them on the minifig.cat site or BL, managed to buy a couple from la petite brique.
Another variant of the M113, quick bit of modding and here we have the Nam "hot dog maker", I mainly wanted to do this so I could work on my fire effects for future scenes etc although I did have the idea to do this one quite a while back when I'd started building a few of these turrets but they always became something else until now funally! the new fire head piece is a great part for sure
Space Lego reimagined series so far. Blacktron I, Space Police I, Space Police II, Ice Planet and Unitron.
Figs are a mix of kitbash, @brickwarriors @custombrickbuilder @natesminifigs

Thought it was time for another go at the Bradley. I've only one other pic of my Bradley and it's a few years old by now, ah time goes by so quick..anyways lol, here is a newer version. The lettering KFOR stands for the Kosovo Force which is a UN peacekeeping force responsible for that region. It's always a pain to do a K in Lego and to do the letters close and to have an R on the end of the SNOT lettering, and a different one slightly then most at that..so I'm happy enough. Sits 6 figs inside and 1 in the turret with room for another if wanted. I could add loads of extra detail either purist or custom but I always like to have my models have a look of a Lego Set if possible, fits better with everything IMO.
Edit by Todd aka "Florida Shoooter" check him out if you haven't by now, thanks again Todd ; )
Another re-do I've had around quite some time now, more has been done then you would first think. I knew had to upgarde to the 50s once they were released. Cooper Works Decals give the model a finishing touch, needs to be viewed in person to see how cool they are, Real easy to apply as well. I came up with this style of AA ammo box, works well for me ; )
Bit of Info on the real life vehicle
M16 MGMC - M3 based Multiple Gun Motor Carriage equipped with the Maxson M45 Quadmount (more specifically the M45D) with 4 M2HB machine guns.
The rear compartment had all its internal fittings removed and the M45 mount was fitted. The mount had to be raised 6" / 152 mm to clear the sides. There was no rear door and the tops of the sides were hinged so that they could be lowered.
Traverse 60° per second. 400-500 rounds per minute. There was enough ammunition carried to allow the M16 to fire for eight minutes of sustained fire. Range of 7,200 yards.
The gunner would sit on a seat reclined at 45°. The sight was positioned so that the gunner could follow the sight so he wouldn't have to move. The control grips were on a handlebar that were located on a post between his knees. By rotating the handlebar would rotate the gun or raise and lower it.
Hope you guys like it and let me know what you think
🍩 Donut Try To Resist! The day of Holey Vengeance be upon ye! Prepare to FRY!
Made a tasty little Mech for the Citizen Brick Donut Head, ready to glaze your city to the ground! Homer was the obvious first victim, but I know he wouldn't want it any other way! Feast your eyes upon it's mighty frosting cannon and fry basket, before it's too late!
I wanted something to go with my dark green Willys MB Jeep so I figured I'd give the M3 another go at a smaller scale. At 6 wide it was tricky to do and in dark green where lots if parts just are not made so in areas I've had to use black parts instead, still looks fine to me and im glad to add another Stuart to my list of builds. Here it's in service with the USMC, depending on the response I might make more ww2 models but let's wait and see on that.
I might make a Sherman to go next to this, depends on parts available in dark green.
Special thanks to Todd for advice and positive support on this as always it's appreciated.
This week’s Mandalorian episode was a strong entry!
I especially loved seeing the Light Cruiser leading the new Mandalorian fleet. Couldn’t help myself photoshopping my own Light Cruiser Moc into some screengrabs from the show 😋 Pretty happy how my MoC looks “in universe”! What do you think?
More pics will be coming tomorrow, stay tuned 😁
My seventh and final model for the first round of the Iron Forge. Four seed parts were used, two as the lips, and one for each of the eyes.
This is the main presentation photo.
Very very happy with how this came out, it was a few long nights to get it finished in time.
Still messing with this one. The overall goal is to have one in tan as well and have pretty much the same parts on both models. Sounds easy but some parts are available in tan that just don't come in bley and visa versa.
Anyways I've changed a few areas in comparison with the last version I released online in tan, I had the sides like this originally but then took the tiles out on the tan version as I'd planned to use stickers but I've decided to go back to the tiles in the end for multiple reasons. Front hinge is old grey as they don't make that part in bley sadly..I've tried plenty of other tech options to try have that glass held in place without the need for that part but in the end they are all too complex so I'll have to live with that being a slightly different colour. I might even add more old grey as a kinda "beat up" look where paint has come off some areas...work with me here lol. The tyres I used before had been too large but it had to be that way as I couldn't figure out how to get any other similar sized tires to fit a hub cap that could be used on both the bley and tan versions..with the previously used tyres I used dishes for the hub caps and as they come in bley and tan I felt the job was done..however I wasn't happy so I went with a smaller tyre and here's where it's been a real pain to get a hub cap that was bley and also tan..in the end I've compromised and used neither lol..opting for these metallic silver ones..they work for me. I didn't want to use the light bley ones everybody else uses.
Any daft jealous comments will get deleted, if your an expert go build one better..believe me you do not want me critical on your model or you'll want to never build one again..no model is perfect so get over yourself.
I will take a better photo later
Has posable steering ; ) I've not seen that on a lego kubel anywhere online.
Our 8th kit is ready and it's a cool space-assault suit from one of our favorite games. This was inspired by the Copperhead Jon did with amazing Hex visor.
Parts shown are not finished, just cleaned in warm soapy water with a toothbrush and primered.

I T'Challa's limbs and put together a purist minifig of Martin Freeman's character: Everett K. Ross
The color of Ross' hairpiece is perfect, but the shape doesn't look that great, so I may try out something else.
He is heavier and bigger than Mk 1. The cockpit has a small hatch right on top, but can also be opened entirely and can easily fit two guys.
One of my favourite TDK scenes, getting these figures has inspired me to make some more superhero builds ; )
I can't remember who makes the custom lighting kits I used..they come in very handy either way!
My favourite line from the film..
Gotham National Bank Manager: Think you're pretty smart, huh? The guy that hired youze, he'll just do the same to you. Oh, criminals in this town used to believe in things. Honor. Respect. Look at you! What do you believe in, huh? WHAT DO YOU BELIEVE IN? (The Joker leans down and sticks a gas grenade in the manager's mouth) "I believe whatever doesn't kill you, simply makes you... Stranger!"
Time for some more Nam builds.
In 1960, the United States Army issued Technical Specification 153 for a Light Observation Helicopter (LOH) capable of fulfilling various roles: personnel transport, escort and attack missions, casualty evacuation and observation.
The aircraft entered service in 1966, arriving in the Vietnam War thereafter. The pilots dubbed the new helicopter Loach, a word created by pronunciation of the acronym of the program that spawned the aircraft, LOH (light observation helicopter).
The OH-6 set 23 world records for helicopters in 1966 for speed, endurance and time to climb.
Do people even read descs anymore? Anyways I thought I'd make a Cayuse as it's a much lesser done heli and that's what I prefer. Tail was tricky to get how I wanted as it's a very different shaping than many others but I'm happy with what I came up with and its very adaptable. This isn't just my "Little Bird" made dark green, it's a total new build and design concept in every area compared to my other helicopters. On the rotor area I managed to get another use out of a wrench lol..love those things! Used hands to give the blades a yellow tip and it works well especially keeping the blade thin as possible and extending its length that bit more which was needed. This started as a table scrap when I was bored and decided I wanted to try out some tech to see if I could get the legs area much better then id previousky done as i was never happy using the robot arms as the curve was just wrong and using other straight parts looked ok but meant the helicopter needed additional support just to sit, that wasn't what I wanted but I also didn't want the helicopter to sit very high compared to a fig when standing next to it as despite knowing figs are out of scale themselves I still think it's Important to try keep builds small as possible while still being fig compatible. I got what I wanted in the end and at the same the found a way to have a windshield added without needing the use of a traditional hinge plate which sometimes isn't made in some colours or is very expensive even in colours like tan. So I worked around all that so it didn't matter. Internally more work went on then I thought to get this shaped but still strong. Hope you enjoy the build.
This being made in dark green made it an extra tough build as certain parts just don't cone in that colour at the moment. That was the extra challenge I set myself.
I fished the base for the Dark Elf Cold One Dread Knight. This is probably my favorite project to date.

Lan has been one of my favorite fantasy book characters since childhood and I was ecstatic to see him finally brought to life in the Wheel of Time series….more series characters to come.

still looking for more of the sidan boomerangs, I got a couple as free gifts with previous orders but didn't get any with the last one

Our 7th kit is ready and it is crazy, it is a famous suit from gaming and our most detailed and complicated yet! Unfortunately, shapeways charges by volume and surface area so its also our most expensive kit.
Parts shown are finished w/ super fine stainless wool, wetsanded w/ 600 grit sandpaper, and primered.
A modified version of my RSO..sits a couple of plates shorter and less plates in general..this version also has a roof that can clip on and off in two places..and no its not DAK..tan colourings were used throughout the german military in most theatres of war..ive also updated the flak in a couple of areas..bit i like the most is using the BA M2 barrel and Gatling gun main piece for the actual cannon ; ) Edit by Todd aka "Florida Shoooter" thanks bud..looks much better ; )
This cozy little model of a client's house was designed to be built together with their kids. The details to be captured, the features that make their house their house, were based on discussions with the client. It's a lot of personalization in a small package!
Do you have an idea for a custom set in LEGO® bricks? See more and get in touch.
Fun little build, lots of adaptation despite the size. Folds up for airborne transport and handlebar pushes down to save space for transport. I've nicknamed it "The Road Runner" ; )
I've seen a few kinds of these used in ww2 by a few different countries, this is just a general early go at one. Can't recall seeing one made in lego before.
A build this size can seem simple but it can often take hours or days of swapping parts and trying different things especially when mainly using old dark grey to build with, so it's only ever "simple" when done and presented. But if it wasn't presented it wouldn't be! Something to respect when looking at others models.
I'll update the photo to a better quality one later today.
Branch out guys and try make vehicles not done as much..keeps things more interesting.

So I did some Cuphead figures 2 years ago, and I felt that I can sort of continue to do so in certain ways, I'm planning on making certain characters from the DLC with Miss Chalice, perhaps certain other bosses too. I came up with the idea to make Cagney based off Poison Ivy's Plant mech, a mediocre build, I plan on making something more fitting for her, but for now I managed to make this beauty, the hardest part was figuring out the petals for him, I think they look okay, perhaps I'll figure something out soon, my favorite part is his face, it looks really good and pretty accurate.
A scene from the Tim Burton Batman movie, I believe this is the first time we see the Batman properly, it definitely stuck in my mind as a kid and tried to re-created the scene with my action figures! There was no Lego Batman in those days lol
Happy Holidays one and all ; )
I finally got back to building a Nam era M113, While I've made quite a few over the years the last time I put a Nam variant on Flickr was April 2013..so it's been longer then I thought! Anyways here is one of the Minesweeper variants, the rollers at front turn completely around independently and the arms move both inwards and out as well as up and back. The M113 is the most widely used APC ever made..least so far
Total edit by Todd aka Florida Shoooter..massive thanks and credit to Todd as most of my pics do need lots doing to them as I'm just not great at taking pics.
