My actual entry for the year challenge on RogueBricks.de is an Roman tower, standing somewhere at the border of the Roman Empire.
Based on my MOC "All along the Nerdtower" I changed main things on this one, including a base, the fence, figures, ... and it will be also shown on the exhibition Bricking Bavaria 2021 in Friedrichshafen (Germany) end of the week. So it is also showable from all sides :D
I am still in love with the color scheme of the tower, medium nougat and dark orange. Si no change on this.
Tom loves to build wooden models and so he was tasked to take on the future trade and build matching models to his ideas. He built the trade cantor and a nice idea of a ship-through. So Tom became the expert in the field of trading strategy for the Klan. Young and wild - but smart and well-read.
The latest breakthrough in frog-related technology is here..

This build was inspired by a trip to the beach of Lake Huron, MI.
The use of nets to shape the sand was inspired by a build by Jan, the Creator, along with some other less closely-related uses.
On Noordimma, my island on the Nine Kingdoms RPG which I play on www.RogueBricks.de, they were in need of a watchtower.
After a few weeks the werk was done on the island and the Clan of Normen had their first tower, based near their first settlement Hammvåsta. This tower will be part of a bigger wall which will be build later in the RPG.

Just a small castle build again and nothing special. Loved to put the viking minifigs in it and to build a little bit castle again.

One of the few peaceful denizens of the Pit, the Karauna have no natural predator. Matoran researchers have found evidence pointing to latent psychoactive abilities compelling any living being in close proximity to either leave the Karauna alone, or regard it as a friend.
The species gained a reputation for having a comically naive disposition, as they have no fear response but are naturally curious. The golden protrusion above their eyes earned them the nickname "kings of the Pit".

Here's my entry for the third prompt of RebelLUG's Vignweek 2021 contest, with the theme of fantastical (being defined as anything fantasy from before 1900). Overall, I'm super happy with how this build turned out. I love how my hummingbird design looks, and I also like what I did for the rotting log. Fun fact, this build also uses some of my favorite LEGO colors, those being dark green, dark azure, and teal, though unfortunately I couldn't get the teal to look as good as it does in person on this model. Anyway, hope you all like this build too!
You can see some close-ups here.

On www.RogueBricks.de we started to play our online LEGO RPG Nine Kingdoms again.
This time we had to build a MOC which shows the beginning of our first colony.
My settlers of the "Clan of Noormen" started to build a first wooden cottage - like they did back in old times in the kingdom of Kurvenheim.
For the 3rd Birthday of our LEGO RPG we need to build a character which takes part in an adventure campaign.
Meet Lamira Adan and his horned bear Beor.
If you wanna join the campaign go to: www.RogueBricks.de
Campaign:
(roguebricks.de/forum/index.php?thread/2011-contest-kampag...)
"CastleContest" with 6 interesting categories:
roguebricks.de/forum/index.php?thread/2010-roguecontest-d...
This moc was built for day 3 of the Rebel Lug VignWeek challenge. For this day the prompt was"Fantasy or Steam Punk".
Built for the sixth round of the 2023 Rogue Olympics, based on one of my all-time favorite Hot Wheels designs, "Sharkruiser".
67 parts.

Here is my entry for the Through the Seasons category of the Summer Joust 2021, with my build depicting Kyle the Fisherman doing some fishing during the spring season. Overall I'm decently happy with this, most of it was built in a day. There were a few things I would've done differently had I started earlier but I think it turned out pretty good and I'm very happy with my rockwork after not having done any for a long time.
This was done in collaboration with:
Roanoke Handybuck: Summer
Jako of Nerogue: Autumn
Carter Witz: Winter
Pippi Longstocking is, next to Sesame Street, The Muppet Show and Maya the Bee, one of my earliest childhood memories as far as television shows are concerned.
That's why I built a MOC for the current contest "Childhood Memories" on www.RogueBricks.de based on the stories, books and movies of the Swedish author Astrid Lindgren: The Villa Villekulla.
In addition, a Figbarf was created with some of the main characters: Pippi Longstocking herself, her two best friends Tommy and Annika Settergren, (buccaneer) Captain Efraim Longstocking, the two police inspectors Kling and Klang.
The two gangsters Blom and Dunder-Karlsson are hiding - of course ;)
During building I had to make some compromises concerning the colors and the size of the MOC. However, I think it's easy to see what it is. With the Figs I have placed some references to individual scenes. Maybe you'll discover some more of them?
Sixth and last entry for the actual castle contest "Nine Kingdoms - Blades of Light" on "www.RogueBricks.de"
This one shows a fight in a one of the cities of Kurvenheim, a land of the Nine Kingdoms.
(For this one I had 3 hours. Building onder pressure isn't my thing if you want to to it really good, with a lot of details, but I am happy that I made it anyway.
'NO - I will not hang you in the tree next to your friends, BB8!'
It is the time of the year again where we look for a beautiful tree and a nice christmas decoration. Since I saw the first time BB8 I wanted to build that tree with the decorated round bricks. Luckily LEGO gave us some more designs.
Have a nice christmas time, guys.
I like building houses!
In the Middle Ages, boats served as indispensable lifelines, ferrying essential food and precious supplies from distant lands to isolated settlements nestled high in the mountains near the sea.
This is my entry to this year's Summer Joust, the "Pick your poison" category.
Criteria:
1. Unstable load - the yellow house
2. Technically useful - the roofs, trees and some other parts of the houses
3. Going alternative - the technic trees
4. Beaten track - the wake of the boat
5. Overpopulation - just kidding, I don't have this one :P
C&C are welcome! Hope you like it!
I was working out plant designs for the next chapter of I Dreamt of Rust, and came up with this mushroom. Tried out some photoshop, too.
There's also a dog hair in the photo...couldn't quite photoshop that out...
My first entry for the #NerdlyStrikesBack contest hosted by BrickNerd on www.bricknerd.com.
Roman watchtower pimped with nerd power.
Native to the island of Daxia, this species of predatory Rahi stalks its prey on the shores, and devours it in the depths.
It's also been domesticated and has a tendency to sit into any box it finds.

Just two days after I started building this kitty, the "Official BBC Contest #81: Water You Building!" was announced on BZPower, which was perfect timing, so this is my entry.
Also sits, as seen here: www.instagram.com/p/Ct1gho6N19w/
“The villagers who lived near the Blackdark Forest called it the Weeping Cottage, though none alive could say why. It wasn’t marked on any map and there weren’t any roads leading to it. Everyone claimed to know someone who'd seen it – a shepherd boy lost at dusk, a hunter returning late or an archer from another village. The descriptions of the house varied, although all of them described a single, unwavering point of yellowish light, like a watching eye, glowing behind a thick wooden door. It never flickered like a candle or fire. It never moved. And it appeared regardless of weather – piercing through fog, shimmering in rain, or casting its faint, baleful reflection onto the stagnant pond on clear, starless nights. The place utterly avoided, seemingly abandoned for generations, yet always occupied by that single point of light. Was it a witch's lantern? A ghostly remnant? Or was the cottage itself somehow alive, watching the forbidden woods with its unblinking eye?
No answers came…”
This is my entry to Summer Joust 2025, "Where No One Dares Go" category. Hope you enjoy it!
P.S. Still water jokes are welcome.
When it all began, they brought down satellites, destroyed observatories. Today I saw them starting to build a radio telescope in place of a mountain they levelled. Until now, they were looking downward; looking for what remained of us. I dread to think what could have possibly drawn their attention upward.

This is the first one of these I didn't build for an article or a collab of some sort. Inspired by the Spike Prime sensor I took apart.
The Resurrection
Holy Week Collaboration Part 8 of 8
Thank you to our other builders Brick Ninja, Forlorn Empire, and Chris Roberts.
View detail shots on my Instagram.
After the Sabbath, at dawn on the first day of the week, Mary Magdalene and the other Mary went to look at the tomb.
There was a violent earthquake, for an angel of the Lord came down from heaven and, going to the tomb, rolled back the stone and sat on it. His appearance was like lightning, and his clothes were white as snow. The guards were so afraid of him that they shook and became like dead men.
The angel said to the women, “Do not be afraid, for I know that you are looking for Jesus, who was crucified. He is not here; he has risen, just as he said. Come and see the place where he lay. Then go quickly and tell his disciples: ‘He has risen from the dead and is going ahead of you into Galilee. There you will see him.’ Now I have told you.”
So the women hurried away from the tomb, afraid yet filled with joy, and ran to tell his disciples. Suddenly Jesus met them. “Greetings,” he said. They came to him, clasped his feet and worshiped him. Then Jesus said to them, “Do not be afraid. Go and tell my brothers to go to Galilee; there they will see me.”
Matthew 28:1-10 NIV
Grand Traverse Lighthouse, built in 1858 and automated in 1972 marks the entrance to Grand Traverse Bay. There were many additions to the building, including making it a two-family residence in 1900.
This Lego lighthouse is displayed in the Grand Traverse Lighthouse gift shop. The background was replaced using Photoshop.
The lighthouse building is shown in the first comment below.
My goal with this build was to create a weathered down house with slight hints of vegetation and plant life. Running out of black tile (3/4th the way through😬) made it especially hard to capture the look of this house. Fortunately I was able to pull through and finish this build.😊
Holy Week Collaboration Part 5 of 8
Look for Part 6 tomorrow from Brick Ninja.

Meanwhile Jesus stood before the governor, and the governor asked him, “Are you the king of the Jews?”
“You have said so,” Jesus replied.
When he was accused by the chief priests and the elders, he gave no answer. Then Pilate asked him, “Don’t you hear the testimony they are bringing against you?” But Jesus made no reply, not even to a single charge—to the great amazement of the governor.
Now it was the governor’s custom at the festival to release a prisoner chosen by the crowd. At that time they had a well-known prisoner whose name was Barabbas. So when the crowd had gathered, Pilate asked them, “Which one do you want me to release to you: Barabbas, or Jesus who is called the Messiah?” For he knew it was out of self-interest that they had handed Jesus over to him.
While Pilate was sitting on the judge’s seat, his wife sent him this message: “Don’t have anything to do with that innocent man, for I have suffered a great deal today in a dream because of him.”
But the chief priests and the elders persuaded the crowd to ask for Barabbas and to have Jesus executed.
“Which of the two do you want me to release to you?” asked the governor.
“Barabbas,” they answered.
“What shall I do, then, with Jesus who is called the Messiah?” Pilate asked.
They all answered, “Crucify him!”
“Why? What crime has he committed?” asked Pilate.
But they shouted all the louder, “Crucify him!”
When Pilate saw that he was getting nowhere, but that instead an uproar was starting, he took water and washed his hands in front of the crowd. “I am innocent of this man’s blood,” he said. “It is your responsibility!”
All the people answered, “His blood is on us and on our children!”
Then he released Barabbas to them. But he had Jesus flogged, and handed him over to be crucified.
Matthew 27:11-26 NIV
