Ahoy Mateys! Today we set sail onto the open sea with the 2nd day of vignweek, here we have a depiction of a sail boat during the era of discovery, let me know what you think in the comments!
When I first saw the Yellow Sign, it shown from my workbench from within a pile of spare parts. The pieces had been set down and shifted at random - mutable, yet the sigil was unmistakable. Staring into it, my vision clouded and blackened. A haze began to form, and in its gaps, blurred lights shown through rough shades of blue. My time on the seas has often led me to visualize the stars as an endless ocean. And that’s where I saw the cursed place. The kingdom city of lost Carcosa.
A lone figure stood atop one of its bizarre towers. The King. Unending, domineering, and sadistic. Visually, I remember nothing, but the emptiness of thought is its own reminder. When my mind returned to my senses, before me sat the most curious of creations. A crude statue of my crude understanding of the entity. Built from the pieces the very same yellow mark had revealed itself with.
Time has passed and yet I’m still burdened with ill headaches of ill fated knowledge. The symbol is scorched into my brain. My mind is plagued with questions; What do I do now? What’s really important anymore? Why would my liege look upon me once and now refuse to look again? There is one unconquerable thing I know for sure - through fear or admiration - I cannot, I dare not, destroy that now precious idol.
Inspired by ‘The King in Yellow’ by Robert W. Chambers (1895)
I’ve agonized over this stupid engine. And I wouldn’t be as intent on accuracy if the original MOC hadn’t been my oldest build.
I’ve attempted as much detail as I can without compromising structure or coming across too garish. This compromise meant abandoning loose coal to hide the techniques and shifting the ’tanks’ all over the body to accommodate wiring and an attempt at representing internal running gear.
The sanding gear, bunker steps, cab detail, and brakes were all labors of love to incorporate and I finally feel rest in my soul that this 1400 can no longer be called an inaccurate Jinty or green Thomas. Pieces have ALL arrived finally from blubrix and bricklink so I can now start on my ‘big’ new project. Happy to shelve this tank.

LEGO Animal Crossing!
New update on my LEGO Ideas project to include popular villagers! (If it reaches 10.000 votes it has a shot at becoming a real LEGO set you could buy in stores)
ideas.lego.com/projects/1805191a-e125-42e8-b7e6-178bc8794b3e
Major feedback I had was that the build was lacking minifigures and so, with the help of a friend of mine we designed some players and popular villagers like Tom Nook, Timmy and Tommy, Isabelle and Mabel!
The LEGO Ideas platform restricts doing new pieces that don't exist so we have to make it work with current production LEGO elements with custom prints on them!
That's the sole reason why we couldn't do villagers with the same in-game proportions, everything has to be adapted to the LEGO system.
Now would be the best possible time ever for an Animal Crossing LEGO set to be made, since LEGO and Nintendo have an ongoing agreement due to their LEGO Super Mario line of products!
If you're an AC/LEGO fan, I'm sure you need this in your life! Every vote counts and the project is almost at 6000 supporters!
The year is 2099. As space exploration thrives, venturing into the cosmos has become commonplace. Nations and even private companies now have their own exploration teams. Among these pioneers is VAREC 07, designed and produced by the Vietnam Aerospace Research and Exploration Committee (VAREC).
Repurposed from a vintage 2022 John Deere skidder, VAREC 07 is equipped with a powerful front claw, built for collecting and transporting planetary rocks and meteor samples for advanced geological research.

NTT Docomo Yoyogi Building
primarily houses technical equipment for cellular telephone services of Tokyo, hence it has less windows than many other skyscrapers.
At the top of the building is a 15
meter diameter clock which can be seen from the Shinjuku train station, which we decided to recreate using a working clock mechanism that was integrated into the LEGO® tower!
The vertical ridges of the tower were created by building the faces of the building sideways.
This model was designed and built by Ryan McNaught, Clayton Mellington and Stephan Froden using 14,297 LEGO® pieces over 52 hours
Imperial colored version of my latest updated AT-RT walker, built for our @darktimesgroup Antolus l collab displayed at @_bricktastic 2024.
The story takes place in the early days of the Empire, when Stormtroopers still used Clone Trooper armor and equipment.
Probably the most visited and most photographed bridge in Venice, (Ponte di Rialto) opened in 1591.Connecting the districts of San Polo and San Marco across the Grand Canal in the heart of the city, the Rialto Bridge has always been a busy crossing over the canal.The bridge is formed by two inclined ramps covered by a portico with shops on either side. This area has long been a market place for Venetians and Tourists.
Day 839: John and I made some ground today. Still a long way to go. Found some corn, not the good kind though. We’ve made camp at an old auto garage, decent enough but the water’s no good. No company today, let’s see how long it lasts..
The Village Post Office is my first new MOC for over a year. A classic British Post Office set during the early 1930's. The model is not a modular building but features an open back design to give easy access to the interior details.
The model is now on LEGO IDEAS. f you like to vote for the model to be made in to a real set then please visit ideas.lego.com/projects/16ae1e95-cf30-41dd-ae23-36e07668df05
Thanks very much.
Its still a WIP, C&C are welcomed.
EDIT: The door will be on the side and this building wont be a corner piece anymore.
The Harbrick Boarding School (for children with no magical abilities). Not at all associated with Hogwarts (the sign above the door is just a coincidence). Anyway, it's an attempt at neo-gothic architecture, loosely inspired by an asylum in NY.
A Neo Fabuland Town Square
This build is part of a larger display I built in 2025, revisiting and expanding on the concept of Neo Fabuland—a reinterpretation of the classic Fabuland aesthetic, much like how Neo-Classic Space draws inspiration from the original Classic Space theme. If you’re curious, you can read more about the goals of the project here.
All six builds for this display are now complete, but so far I have only posted two sections, Maximillian’s Watermill and Hilltop Station, and this is the third one I completed.
This build is not inspired by an existing Fabuland set. It features a bustling town centre with a tavern, an apartment building with a rooftop hut and garden, a stone bridge, vehicles and a statue.
Lighter, bipedal version of the Strydr + an improvement of the previous Takahe 1 model.
Fun lil droneuary post. More pictures available on my Instagram @ realmink.io
Another way to appraoch Legobricks. It's for the Rogue Olympics at roguebricks.de, theme is "Hidden" in not more than 101 bricks
The third LEGO skyscraper goes up in Wasabi District! At just over 3 feet tall and over 5000 pieces, this 10-storey building is the first office skyscraper in Wasabi District!
This is the second office floor, feautiring a large conference room, a break room and a lounge.
An updated version of my newest modular. I completely reworked the top details, replace the purple tiled center column (to my girlfriend's dismay), and added some details to the bottom floor. Original version here: www.flickr.com/photos/15902478@N02/14085892016/
What do you think - better? worse?
The Vybe Hotel - the newest addition in Wasabi District, officially open for business!
Second floor of the hotel - The lounge! Includes bar, kitchen, balcony and utilizing trans/glass pieces nealy everywhere.
A cobbled mix of a few different references I found. Not a lot of experience building vehicles, but this was a fun one.
A new attempt to built this most lgendary ship in this most legendary color scheme. Thrusters and Cockpit move instantly with turning the model.
Built because of love but also for Roguebricks Annual Challenge!
My fifth entry for the Iron Forge 2025! I had a lot of fun with this one, both in building and while editing the photo.
The seed part for this round is any one-wheel mudguard, of which I used 21 in this build: two each in the bumper cars, and an additional thirteen in the bunting
What. A. Chore. I couldn’t begin to tell you why proportioning this engine has been such a bane, but between the boiler, the tanks, the cab, the bunker, the wheels…. No combination of sizes or shapes I tried worked. This result here… is the least offensive of my attempts and the last of my patience. At quick glance I think it at least communicates (auto tank). But I want to focus on a new build and need to move on. So here’s my first overhaul of the new year rail ready.
The Vybe Hotel - the newest addition in Wasabi District, officially open for business!
First floor of the hotel - The lobby! Includes stairs, elevator, computer/office room and of course the front desk.
THE LICH'S LAIR.
Here we have my third entry into the #halloweenhabitats25 and #letsbuildhalloween2 challenges over on Instagram! Again, continuing the theme of undead D&D enemies, we have a lich in his lair. I tried multiple tile patterns before eventually settling on this one, attempting to convey the grandiose taste of a creature that pursues eternal life/undeath. If there's one thing liches have, it's a flair for the dramatic, right? Collected in the lich's lair, we see a bit of everything, including some of his favorite trinkets, one of his favorite spells, a lovely still-life from one of his favorite artists, his grimoire with his nastiest and most profane magic, and of course, the captured souls of many adventurers which he'll use to one day feed his phylactery! Clearly, he's brought some more with thim, however--I wonder where he'll find the space to store them? As always, for lore: read on!
In the world of D&D, liches are powerful spellcasters who have taken on the mission to learn and conduct dark, unholy rituals that tether their soul permanently to their body, even after death. While their spirits inhabit their bodies, the flesh and its innards continue to rot away, leaving the lich with a rather macabre visage. They often dress themselves in fineries, which convey the quality of enlightenment they tend to claim they've achieved in their abominable state of being. Liches undergo the process of trapping their souls within a vessel known as a phylactery, which they often keep heavily guarded, or even hidden and inconspicuous, to avoid being destroyed by self-righteous heroes. To destroy a lich's phylactery is to destroy its safety net of regenerating after its physical form is slain. Thus, it is left vulnerable, and capable of being extinguished. A lich will fight with all its might to avoid having its broader ambitions cut short by a setback such as being slain again, and will employ devastating magic and traps to deter intruders that would infiltrate its lair.
I think I have rebuilt this set over a hundred times. There are so many options in Lego and I tried most of them, so good, some great, some terrible. Since I took these photos I have rebuilt the head and neck. Photos coming soon.
