Build made with Bricklink Studio 2.0 with existing parts and image enhanced and edited in Photoshop.
Don't let the methane cause you a headache! This vehicle is suitable for even the most extreme high pressure area. Just keep roving!
I had a need for an escort carrier so I built one. This one's at the same scale as the freighters I posted earlier. I'm not entirely sold on the carrier bays but it works well enough.
Team Astrotech presents its New model for the Unlim class of the Galactic Speeder League. Like the previous P9 model, it utilizes lava engines produced solely on the planet of Mauna-Effa, but has much sleeker body design and a pair of maneuver engines at the front.

I recently bought the instructions for Jerac's TIE fighter from Brickvault.
I made some modifications to the colors used, to give it a more weathered look; there's flat silver, sand blue and dark tan mixed in with the grey and I added dark blue and dark brown to the black. I feel that this mixing of colors also removes some of the "toy" feel you get when using a single color.
The build is everything I hoped it would be: it was fun, I learned a few new tricks, it looks great, and it's surprisingly strong. I've let my kids play with it and not a single piece had come off yet. It took me about 3 hours at a leisurely pace.
I didn't find a single thing I'd change about the model while building; it's all very sensible and optimized. You can see that this is the result of a LOT of thought and testing.
I'm considering replacing the bricks with flutes in the panels with stacked jumper plates: these have a groove, which I hope results in an even better representation of the pattern you see on screen. But I'll need about 1000 of them, so it's quite a big undertaking with no guarantees of success...
Remember the 1987 Monorail set 6990? I'm trying to create one using modern parts. The new 2022 city space sets triggered me to try this.
A surf-speeder similar to the one LEGO puts in NinjaGo and Monkie Kid sets. A small teal speeder, Built during the speeder-themed LondonAFOLs July meet-up
Shoutouts to Inthert for suggesting the name. I guess the Andrea minidoll can be Enfys Nest - the Forces of Destiny version!
Not the most reliable or easy-to-operate of Blacktron vehicles, the BT7751, nicknamed the "Dark Dragster", was designed as a fast raiding rover armed with dual small-calibre omega particle cannons. The Blacktron Alliance frequently use dangerous and unstable technology in their equipment, but omega cannons produce sufficient background radiation that the designers were forced to place them at a distance from the pilot's position. After a design where they were positioned directly over the front axle proved too difficult to control, the current strutted design was produced. Dark Dragsters are rare in the Blacktron Alliance's hardware lists but are usually given a wide berth by both the Federation and the Alliance's own troops whenever they are rolled out.

FebRovery episode 7, and time for a silly-looking rover with a "serious" writeup.
Never mind the infallible precision radar guidance you'd need to land a freaking space rocket in an interior hangar accessible through a door barely wider than the rocket itself, interior hangars are cool. I was quite happy with the microscale retro-style rocket, but felt like it needed something more to complete the build; thus the hangar and port facility.
With the Basilisk starfighter, I wanted to try some weapons/loadout variants, like in a SHMUP. This is the level VIII, the weapons on the ship are the same as level VI, the gun drones are retained, and a shield drone is added in front. The one in the original photos looks like it will be level 5. This is the final upgrade I've built, and the last that I had ideas for.

The top parts are Bionicle armour pieces from 2008-2009, added to this spaceship during a Bionicle-themed LondonAFOLs meet-up to convey a bit of alien technology into this angular craft.

Also known as the Lunar Dumper, set 6847 was one of the first crop of sets to feature astronaut minifigures in suit colours other than red and white, but I have to say I always found the yellow suit colour looked really bizarre with the yellow standard migifig skintone.
Regardless, 6847 was a cool set, one of the more functional and realistic near-future-toned of the various later CS sets, and seemed worthy of an update.
What's this all about? New Elementary is 8 years old! www.newelementary.com/2021/06/8-lego-numbers-eight.html
Despite it's slow, bulky frame, thrusters on its back allow it to quickly leap at its opponents and smash them with its hammer. Its arm-mounted shotgun can shread through tank armor.
Decommissioned units are popular for truck rallies.

The Pulsar Charger was one of the smallest and least expensive sets from the LEGO Space M:Tron theme, and the first ever M:Tron set that I received as a wee lad in 1990. When I was really young, I couldn't read the box description too well, ergo I colloquially referred to this set as "The Lightning Bug." This particular photo was taken in front of my recent matte painting called "The Moth Nebula."
Update of set 894/452.
So many of the really early Classic Space sets were so much more grounded in near-future science than their later counterparts, and the Mobile Tracking Station certainly fits this vibe. At the time I remember thinking the set was a bit boring and ugly, being basically a grey box on wheels; these days its more realistic near-future vibe and clear, recogniseable purpose are part of the charm.
Seeing as I seem to be on an "updated rebuilds of old Classic Space sets" kick at the moment, I couldn't resist.

Alien story made for the display "Space Panic" at the french convention Brick à Dole 2017.
No display "Space Panic" without... Panic ^_^
A wink at the mythical movie monster... Alien ! Reinterpretation of some of the cult scenes of Alien movies.
Of course on this display as in space, no one can hear you scream...
