Built for the 90th anniversary contest on Lego Ideas
I love music - a day doesn't go by where I don't plug in my headphones and listen to some Billy Joel or Coldplay. So when I heard that Lego as a part of their 90th anniversary contest would have a music category, I got right to work building a MOC that would depict my love of the topic. Unfortunately, the past month and a half have been crazy, especially here in Poland, and I've had much less building time than I would've wanted. As a result this model was sort of rushed and I had to cut a couple of corners to finish it on time. It's definitely not my best MOC nor my favorite, but I figured it's good enough to post here and give it a shot at the Lego House. If I have enough time I'll try and build another MOC for the contest, because frankly I'm not sure whether I want to give away all these pieces for an entire year if I win 😅
Feedback is always appreciated,
Happy Building!

Hopefully the start of a longer build series featuring more cable car stations spread out across a vast and unique metropolis. Can't promise anything, we'll see
It took me about 5 months to build this guy, and in the end, I had to speed things up. I'm flying to the States in a week, and I didn't want to leave this MOC waiting for next year. On the bright side, now that I've got this guy out of the way, I can finally move on to the other, fresher districts 😅
A MOC I built about 5 years ago: An interpretation of the Prancing Pony.
Unfortunately not well photographed, and meanwhile disassembled.
Maybe you like it anyway 😉
Have you ever read a book that was so good, everything in it seemed real? Reading books is a great way to spark the imagination, and sometimes we get so caught up in a story that we seem to fully immerse ourselves in the wonderful world it describes. I've tried my best to show this here, with a MOC representing my love for books as well as simply good story telling.
This was my entry for the Nature category in the Lego House contest over on Lego Ideas, so if you like this MOC be sure to check it out on there . If I made it to the voting stage I'd appreciate your guys' support :)
Feedback is much appreciated and as always,
Happy Building!

My entry into LEGO Ideas' Ninjago themed contest: ideas.lego.com/challenges/57df9d8b-7fbb-40e8-aa14-405ea7a...
Sensei Wu loves to travel far and wide to experience nature. Flowers... Trees... Adventure... It's what a true sensei does.
I'm back again entering these awesome contests! Ninjago has and still is one of my favorite LEGO themes, so I definitely could not resist entering. This build was pretty fun to design, and I'm fairly satisfied with the final product. The foliage and plants were definitely a must to include, as that has been on my building to-do-list for a while now. The shrine was kind of an add on, so not too happy with how that turned out.
Took around 12hrs to design and photograph. Let me know what you think of this model in the comments below.

This creation was made in full collaboration with Max Brich
A witch, or magician, is a woman who practices witchcraft and magic. In the Western world, the witch has long been associated with negative symbolism, the power to fly on a broomstick, her attendance at sabbaths, and the witch hunt. Her figure was rehabilitated during the 1970s, via feminist movements.
The witch is a recurring character in the contemporary imagination, through tales, novels, films and masks of popular festivals. In this project, we wanted to present a rehabilitated version of the witch, close to nature, benefactress and healer.
The project is 2500 pieces. We paid particular attention to the structure of the walls and the harmony of the whole. We are very happy with the result, and we think this project will be the essential set for your collection.
We believe it would be a great display piece.
In that regard, we offered the option of putting it on your shelf, with a waterfall overflowing from the edge. You could as well integrate this set into your medieval dioramas, with the blacksmith, or your castle. It would also fit well in a Heroic fantasy diorama.
A build inspired by the beautiful LEGO Ideas GWP Flying Moon Car. A retro style Moon House that turned out very different from what I initially envisioned, but I had to work with the colors and parts available in my inventory.

I'm a big fan of Terry Pratchett's books so it's no surprise I've always wanted to build the Great A'Tuin with elephants and Discworld on top. This micro model brought me a lot of fun in figuring all the details and I hope you'll like it too :)

Meet my monster truck, a blast from the past inspired by my favorite childhood toy: a '57 Chevy Matchbox car. It's not a copy of any real truck, but it's packed with cool vintage style. It looks right at home with Speed Champions cars and can star in any LEGO City scene, just add a crowd and let the show begin! ! It’s now submitted to the Bricklink Designer Program (BDP) Series 10:
www.bricklink.com/v3/designer-program/series-10/3878/Flam...
Only 5 designs will be selected to become official Bricklink sets. Your votes and comments would mean a lot to me, thank you so much for your support!
Day 1 of your suggestions.
A couple of days ago I asked FOLs on my Instagram account to give me some ideas for some smaller MOCs so I could practice working on commissions. A couple of suggestions doubled up and animals popped up quite a lot. Seeing as though hedgehog was another suggestion, I decided to strike 2 birds with one stone and bring Gertrude to life. That's her name and it's beautiful. I've only known Gertrude for a day and an half, but if anything happened to her I would murder everyone and then myself.
Didn't have enough pieces to make the muzzle tan and I've only got one black ball for the eyes, but seeing as though if this were a commision I'd have to build it on the computer anyway, this isn't much of a problem.
1. Would I feel fine selling instructions to this if someone had commissioned it? Yes
2. Would I feel fine selling these instructions outside of commissions, ie on rebrickable? Also yes
Instructions for Gertrude can now be purchased on Rebrickable at this link: rebrickable.com/mocs/MOC-116184/Neon5/hedgehog/#details

My 3rd build in my Iron Builder round against ForlornEmpire using Cylinder 1 x 5 1/2 with Bar Handle, and my entry to the Trading Places category of Brickscalibur!
Used.. uh, most of my seed parts in this one! They're started to get rather scattered all over my room now xD
Had a lot of fun building this one, hope you like it! :)
So.. I forgot that I didn’t upload this one here yet and decided, what the heck, now is better than never. Like with the others including CAC minifigs, this was the last of four builds I did as a special project with the good folks at Beyond The Brick.
This last one was slightly more challenging than the previous ones, mostly due to wanting the landscape be captured as best as possible not only in regards to shaping and style, but also color. Like the other builds I’ve done, the build has a black border at the bottom which serves as a structural support to the build, but also helping capture the colors. I additionally added some elements of the terrain spilling over to give it some extra detail. I think it’s one of my favorite parts of the build. Speaking of favorite parts, Sand Red is one of the coolest colors and I opted to use some in this build. The results I think speak for themselves. Not too much and not too little. Overall this build was a fun project just like the others and a good way to map out future ways at building Utapau.
If you want to see more on how this came together, you can find two videos on my YouTube showing the build and how it was built.
Thank you to all who’ve helped support these builds I’ve done in the past few months. I promise you, more is on the way and that includes some different and new things other than Star Wars. It’s just my main jam and when the motivation is there, it’s hard to switch to something else.

Rock Raiders Badger Mole
Here is my tribute to one of my favorite Lego themes growing up. I've always been a fan of massive 6 wheeled vehicles like the M-Tron Deep Core Magnetizer and thought that the Rock Raiders needed their juggernaut of a mining vehicle equipped with two huge drills, a massive laser (an upscale of the og laser from the sets), and defensive gun turrets to ward off dangerous rock monsters. The huge sloped turbines were upscaled from the original 2x3 Dark Turquoise Rock Raider slopes. It has a crew of 6 (two rear gunners, two drill operators, a laser turret controller, and driver).
Things don't always go as planned... Originally I wanted to show off a render of this in a cool lit cave using Cinema 4D as I usually do and show the process in another episode of Digitally Assembled. But no matter how powerful a machine one might have (and I truly do thanks to Puget Systems that is superior to any other machine I've ever used) there comes a point when you hit a wall with software capability. At 13,091 parts it is hard on its own in Bricklink Studio, but when exported/converted to fbx to be brought into Cinema 4D that equates to literal millions upon millions of polygons to the point where things are nearly unworkable.
All this to say- I want to do a proper render of this some day, but for now this is what I'll share until I can crack that formula for massive builds in C4D.
If you are a Rock Raiders fan, let me know what you think and please do share!
Special thanks to Simon Liu and Peter Carmichael for the helpful feedback while designing this.
“All strive for victory. But not all understand what it truly is. To a soldier or pilot on the line, victory is surviving the current battle. To a politician, victory is an advantage one can bring to a bargaining table. To a warrior, victory is driving an enemy from the field of battle, or bringing him to surrender.
Sometimes victory is greater than the warrior could ever hope for. Sometimes it is more than he is able to hear.”
- Thrawn
It all started almost two months ago with an idea. Make something for May 4th (I’m late, I know, but cut me some slack). Me and Jan, the Creator are both big fans of the Imperial architecture seen in the Star Wars universe and wanted to do something large in size. After some hours of researching, looking through many concept arts and designs, the plans were put together and we set out to build our creations.
~ Platform ~
The starting point for me here was the platform on which the custom Tie Fighter (designed by Jerac) and many minifigs are standing on. One piece of concept art / Imperial structure we found was a large landing platform on Kashyyyk. To get the shaping right, a combination of corner slopes, hinges and many larger tiles were used to get the look. Since the surrounding area was to be terrain, I went with Dark Orange as the color for the ground. I purposefully left this area more flat and basic to leave attention towards the base. I also wanted a small area below the platform to store speeders which also helps break up the bottom area, giving it some action.
~ Base ~
The base itself was built in two main sections and some medium sized segments at the top. Walls here uses various tiles in LBG and DBG to form this Imperial architecture design. Was quite a challenge later on with the lack of tiles in certain areas so I had to get creative in how I would spread them. Instead of just using regular tile, I also made use of sandwhich tiles, corner faucet cut tiles and some snot to built up this area. Lots of other elements were used for detail including some DBG frames that I attached to tiles to create this column in the middle wall. The key thing while working on this was to keep a balance of simplicity and detail, something that can get lost while working on a larger creation. As we get to the top, you can see more detail and extras, like crates and dishes that populate this area.
~ Minifigs ~
The last thing I want to discuss is the minifigs used throughout the build. The Imperial selection of officers, troopers and crew is very extensive so once again, keeping a balance was important. Me and Jan wanted to include characters like Grand Admiral Thrawn and Moff Tarkin to give these creations a bit more purpose. Perhaps they’re here to inspect something new, here for a strategy session, the point is these two give a presence, even with being two small minifigs. The Death Troopers additionally work well to complement those, giving you once again the feeling that there are things at work here.
Thank you to CTR Bricks for helping edit the picture.

A 2D SVG-style recreation of France's most beloved landmark. Instructions can be purchased here
It can get pretty boring in the States without your Lego collection, so in order to fuel my hobby, I was forced to resort to digital means. After finishing the MOC, I decided to put off posting to create instructions for it - I figure it can be a good display piece, perhaps a wall hanging if properly mounted, or just a cool, artsy desk decoration.
Wasn't sure which direction to take with the photos, but once I figured out mom was making a loaf of bread, there was no other option than the Lego / IKEA-esque product photos 😅
Dimensions:
33,6 cm tall
19,2 cm wide
2 cm deep
A note of caution for those thinking about purchasing the instructions: although the end result is stable, this MOC can be tedious and even complicated at times to build and requires a lot of delicate maneuvering, it's definitely not for the faint of heart. Would recommend for intermediate to advanced builders.
Feedback is always appreciated,
Happy Building!

The animals of the forest have their shy way, yet this stag stands majestically on top of the mountain peak. There is still a wisp of youth to his elegant body, as he observes the forest with nonchalant ease. His poetic antlers, which blossom with autumnal flowers, echo with the twists of the forest branches.
This is my entry for LEGO Ideas, where you have the chance to get one of your very own models featured in the world-famous Lego House. There are 3 different categories: Minifigure, Architecture and, this one, alternative nature. This contest is one of my favourites, and always look forward to competing in it. I wanted to excite the aesthetics of the model with an unusual colour scheme, comprising various shades of green. The result contrasts nicely with the autumnal colours on the stag's antlers. The undergrowth was created using teeth, gears and wands. And there is a border surrounding the stag is made from black slopes.
And I would just like to thank everyone at BII for they're insightful input as usual. And credit to Marcel V for his beautiful border technique.
Tried a little wider crack for this one and also added some rubber bands since they matched the colour :)
Any additional support for this is greatly appreciated! ideas.lego.com/projects/b1afbed6-a6af-4c34-929e-fc86bf53d44f
Hi,
Today I come to you with my newest creation which shows you the beginning of the famous adventure of Bilbo Baggins who’ll soon join a Thorin’s companion and wander through the Middle-earth to reach the mighty Erebor and free the mountain from the evil Smaug.
I built this MOC to finally use one of my Middle-earth’s mini figures and also show my love and respect to the books, movies and author of all Middle-earth’s works, J.R.R. Tolkien.
For me this scene from the first Hobbit movie represents my mood when I’m again starting my fantasy adventure with any of the Tolkien’s or Jackson’s works of art.

Originally intended to be a quick Instagram project, due to popularity on Reddit I decided to release this vignette as a project on LEGO Ideas. What you see here are a few quick promotional photos I shot for the Ideas landing page to illustrate additional product details, hence the simplicity, and also why the art canvas is blank. In my final product, I intend for the retail set to include dozens of various multicolored LEGO tiles for customizing the art canvas, which I believe will be a focal selling point.
The Dojo - 2021 updated version
My entry for the contest “we love sports” on Lego Ideas: ideas.lego.com/challenges/5c659186-fb0b-46ab-8f9f-e619ccd...
The Dojo is the traditional house of martial arts, where athletes go to train in many physical activities.
The build is made by approx. 2700-2800 pieces and features an interior area where matches take place, and an outside area where young boys train and meditate. Also a typical cherry tree grew up in the corner, and beneath its shadow athletes rest between matches. At the main entrance, statues of old champions inspire the new generations to give 100% and focus on becoming stronger.
It has been several rotations since our arrival here on New Plympto and we've had no shortage of action. Lord Vader instructed me and my men to take care of the locals who've put up resistance with their new emperor and give him a report on the rumors that a former Jedi Knight might be among them. Unlike what has been said, these "rebels" have little experience and have been quite an easy foe to defeat. The only change I would've made was to bombard them from the sky. Our final advancement on the enemy begins tomorrow. My only real question is, what happens to us when we're done here? There has been talk among the men of this subject for some time. We troopers are born to battle, anything else is well, against our nature. - Commander Vill
In collaboration with Beyond The Brick and CloneArmyCustoms I bring you my next MOC, another build from the Dark Times era from the “Path to Nowhere” comic. Seen here are 501st Clone Troopers wiping out what remains of a Nosaurian resistance force.
Unlike the previous builds I’ve done, I wanted this one to be focused on the build itself and experiment with a few techniques for the landscaping and trees. Above the classic border design I have for my builds, I used different colors to create layers to the dirt seen here. For those interested in knowing which, I wound up using Black for the bottom, followed by Dark Brown and finally Reddish Brown for the top. The path uses Medium Nougat elements. I’m not a particularly stellar fan of trees, one of the harder things to get naturally done, but I think the results for the two designs here works well. I was able to use a lot of previously acquired LUGBULK elements for those and ended up turning out better than I expected. For those familiar with the comic and wanting to point it out, the TX-130s are indeed in a different color scheme. I went for the classic look for one cause I wanted it to stand out more.
Additional thank you to my friend Kevin for letting me use his TX-130 design in the build as well.

I love Popeye, he is one of my childhood hero! Not long after I’d done making this build, I thought hey maybe it can fit as a LEGO Ideas project and share it with everyone who love Popeye too :) So if you want a Popeye LEGO set to be officially sold, please click the support button on this LEGO Ideas page, here:
ideas.lego.com/projects/121627
It needs 10,000 supporters to reach the review stage. Please share it on Facebook, Twitter, and other social media sites…and tell everyone you know to support it too! This Popeye set would not become a reality without your help. Thank you for your support! :)
Basic Info:
- Dimensions: Width 12 cm x Height 20.5 cm.
- Number of Pieces: (+/-) 391 pcs.
Description:
This LEGO Popeye model is perfect to be put as a display in your home, office or on your working table. There are 14 point of articulations spread on the neck, arms, hands, hips, legs and feet which makes this model really posable and can be played anyway you like :)
Behind the Build:
One of the reasons why I love Popeye is because it reminds me of my late father who have passed away more then a decade ago. Back then when I was a kid he'd always rent and show me a Popeye video whenever I'm eating my green vegetables (and yes, I still hate vegetables even till now), and one of the things I remember about Popeye is that eating vegetables and spinach can make you stronger! Now I have 2 boys of my own and I tell them the same thing, "Boys, eat your veggies so you'll both be strong like Popeye!" :)
PS: If you happen to notice the missing pipe on his mouth then you are right; the new modern Popeye and the upcoming Popeye movie (whose trailer you can see on Youtube) isn’t using the pipe anymore, which fortunately fits with one of the rules in LEGO Ideas that prohibits the depiction of smoking :)

In collaboration with Beyond The Brick and CloneArmyCustoms I bring you my next MOC, another scene straight out of the Star Wars Purge comic series. This time, we have Lord Vader and his elite 501st Clone Troopers taking on Jedi that have regrouped in an abandoned mining facility on Kessel.
When working on this project, I wanted the build to be split with Vader and the Jedi being the focus below and the 501st be the focus in the upper section. Colors once again here was imperative to get right and I think the Dark Orange and DBG contrast nicely. As I talk about in the video available on the @beyondthebricktv YouTube channel, various details in addition to the colors I wanted to get right were the elements of Imperial designs for the walls, on the floor and door frames. I think the figures really shine in this environment and am satisfied with the results here.

If you love Totoro, and LEGO, why not support this live project on LEGO Ideas? I would really appreciate any support and if you are able, share this idea with your friends and family on social media!
This build was really fun to design and photograph. The trees are a new design I came up with, and the path came together nicely as well. I'm also really liking the way Totoro was developed. Just like in the film, Totoro has a olive green leaf on his head. He also features two eyes, which I used a sharpie marker to make the eyes. Gotta get creative sometimes....
Let's keep the LEGO Totoro dream alive! Support this project and share it with your friends and family. Sharing on social media is also very helpful, and can help this project gain momentum.
That's it for now! Drop a comment and let me know of any improvements I got potentially add on to this set. I will have two more Space Jam 2020 entries coming very soon, so look forward to those.
Thanks for viewing! :)

Ulájuk is Greenlandic for "well-built one." This was a fun journey in learning how to be as efficient with my brick collection as possible. I started with the wing pieces I got from my latest RLUG meeting last month and created a face using the light yellow bricks from the Fiat set. From there it was a gamble if I had the parts to accomplish a full figure. He has a very robust technic core and has panels in the back attached by Lego magnets to make it easy for me to access his core to move him. He is quite heavy and weighs about 10-15lbs. The dwarf stands at 20.5 inches tall. There are a lot of unique techniques I got to try and this dwarf is through and through pure unaltered Lego.
The shoulder covers are from the Star Wars 9678 Twin Pod Cloud Car and Bespin and the cloth is from Star Wars 6210 Jabba's Sail Barge
Special thanks to Dwalin Forkbeard and Alex_mocs for the helpful input along the way.
I hope you enjoy this build.
