After modeling these exclusive pieces (head, torso and wings) for mecabricks, I had to try them in a scene. I didn't have anything in mind when I started but I think it all came together nicely. I kept the default settings of the add-on for the materials so I guess it could be improved especially the roughness for fig parts and horns.

Ran across František’s great builds here on Flickr, which led me to his YouTube instructional videos. Decided to try my hand at building his Articulated Bus using Mecabricks and rendering with Blender. Had to swap out the smooth tire for a knobby one, but otherwise true to his build.
I highly recommend you check out his videos. I like how he runs them backwards—a nice effect that stands out against others.

Background:
About a week ago, Ron_Dayes www.flickr.com/photos/135487645@N05 and I were talking about how there are no good wheels for REALLy tiny cars. We decided to try building some tiny cars, using the hubs a the TT wheels as our full wheel. Ron made this awesome Smart that he posted a few days ago. I decided to make the Electric Renault Zoe.
The Build Stuff: This build was a struggle for me, trying to balance both simplicity and detail on something so small. There are quite a few wedged pieces on this model to make it nice and smooth (as smooth as possible for a tiny Lego MOC). The front was quite fun, trying to figure out how to connect those wedge 1x1s to the front while still allowing detail.
Conclusion, future stuff:
So yeah, a tiny car is doable! I am super impressed by the detail Ron put in his, and hopefully I can build some more of these cool little cars! And hopefully some other interesting cars coming out soon!
Thanks for looking!
BTW go check out Ron's builds, really awesome inspiration over there for any scale cars!
Mech Tutorial:
This Lego Mech is small (Gundam HG size), it has good articulations and it's very fun to pose.
Instructions/tutorial for this robot available on my YouTube Channel.
The ultimate in passive-aggressive counterintelligence technology.
The lens cap program was launched in 1988 by YSSR Central Intelligence as a means to obscure rival nation's orbital information gathering abilities without the major international incident of blowing up a satellite.
The Lens Caps would instead make use of advances in rendezvous technology to approach and photograph a target before using a small robotic arm to anchor itself. The arm would then adjust the position of the satellite bus to obscure any Erf-facing sensor equipment.
I've been building ponies based on Andrew Harvey's pony design for over a year now, and while I like it a lot (enough to have built seven of them IRL), I've always wanted to try and create my own original Lego pony design, and after months of experimentation this is what I've finally come up with!
I took a lot of inspiration from Mike Nieve's awesome Pokemon models, since they do a great job of capturing cartoon character cuteness, although mine is significantly smaller than his due to ponies having enormous eyes.
One of my priorities with this new design was potential for different poses. As much as I like Andrew Harvey's pony design, it can't be easily rebuilt into different poses without looking weird. These new ones however, I can rebuild to my heart's content! The only limitation is whatever 2D shapes can be built with plates and slopes.
My favorite part is the wings, which are just some minifigure shield pieces mounted on skeleton arms :) They just happen to be exactly the shape of folded wings, and the right size no less! If only they came in more than 4 colors IRL...

– Why have I chosen RSS Korolev? Every captain wants such ship. Fast. Huge. Convenient. Never mind, I m just joking. Someone else would say something about a new frontier and a spirit of discovery. As for me, it s just a new experience. You know, if you are captain, it s almost impossible to find anything except cargo ship. Or a liner for the lucky ones. It s not bad, but those routine delivery missions are too identical. Fly somewhere, take cargo, go back, repeat. This research voyage is completely different. Much more responsibility. There are larger cargo ships, but the crew is always low, a couple of dozens at the biggest ones. And all of them are captain s subordinates. Captain is a god on his ship. Here… everything is different. Hundreds of scientists are not just passengers. I have to change course if some astronomer finds some unusual star or if a biologist decides to scan particular planet for life. It s a bit annoying. Some more conservative person could find such situation real headache. But I don t want to return to the freighters.
– They can say everything they want, but NavSystems was a general sponsor of this mission. So our aim is establishing new hyperspace routes and correcting old ones. Most expansive and complicated equipment of this ship are all kinds of hyperspace scanners. Laying a new route isn t a simple task. You have to keep in mind many factors to make it fast, reliable, safe, economic. And profitable for company. Days, when ship had to have huge powerful expansive computer onboard to calculate hyperjump, are gone. Companies like NavSystem provide access to their servers to make calculations as simple as it possible. Global hyperspace beacon network collects all necessary data; servers process it and give all parameters of a jump for a fair payment. This entire infrastructure has high running cost, so we can t do it for free.
– Those bastards from the “navigators guild” think they are masters here. But most of them don t even understand that their precious hyperroutes are useless if nobody wants to use them. Every journey needs a reason. The most common and obvious one is valuable resource deposit. Humanity needs more resources for further expansion. That s why we should check every possible planet, moon or asteroid belt. Moreover, every planet is unique and can tell scientists something new and may be important. We ve already done several discoveries. But “navigators” always hurry us up if they find star system useless for them. We must do something.
– This expedition has already given us good results. We collected tons of information and statistics. It will help for new colonists a lot. Some people hope we can find one more earth-like planet. It will be a great success. However, we checked thousands of planets and none of them is suitable for human without any special equipment. We even found some samples of life, but it were just bacteria and a couple of simplest seaweeds. Space is a dead place. I hope we can change this in future.

First quick render test with new sticker bump maps from the workshop. It looks good in Blender without changing anything to the script.
Such a shame that 16x16 limit didn't allowed me to shape rear bumper properly. I'd also love bigger exhaust there, but I wanted to play by the rules from its start to the end.

Soviet 20-ton military manned space station, desined for photo and radio intelligence. It was equipped with several cameras, including infrared one and 1 meter camera "Agat-1". It also carried 23mm autocannon, which was tested in space just before deorbiting. It was the first and the only case of shooting in space. First concept supposed to use heavy cargo spacecraft TKS for resupply and crew rotation, but Soyuz was used instead. However, TKS was launched several times later uncrewed. Also ISS module Zarya is based on it.
Hull of unfinished Almaz stations (development of equipment was slow) were used for first "civil" space station DOS-1. Both Almaz and DOS series were called Salyut for press.

Not really expecting to win, but that was a fun and interesting experience. The sculpture is roughly built at a 1:1 scale.

Special thanks to MOCmaster for the amazing face print.
Pikachu was sick and tired of being outclassed by fellow billionaire Tony Stark, so the electric mouse developed his own combat armor, the Pikabuster.
All right men, we’ve arrived. That strange thing looking like a comet is your new home and place of work for several months. No, that’s not a comet. That’s EFS Asimov, ore processing ship, and this dusty tail is a cloud of waste. We are getting closer and you can see how big this ship is. Do you see those claws and arms at the bottom? Now they are empty, but when Asimov sees some good asteroid full of iron nearby, she can crush and eat it herself. Now swarms of mining drones and transport ships are delivering ore to Asimov’s hangars. Yes, it looks like giant steel hive. See those spinning things? They are ore mills, crushing pieces of rock into dust. Then ore is separated from waste, enriched and prepared in other ways to become high quality steel. Can you see those four melting facilities? They are making steel plates, beams, tubes… all you want. And that is stored in those huge containers. Soon another cargo ship will take a couple of them. Hey, look at the engines. They are massive! If waste goes through their exhaust, it begins to glow. Now engines aren’t working, but you must see it! Let’s look at another side now. Yes, yes. That’s hydroponics. How many mining ships has it? But we have! You can take a rest after a long day in one of these little artificial gardens. We care about our employees. Anyway, we are going to dock, so our improvised excursion is over.
My favorite Castle Theme was always King Leo and his lion knights against Cedric the Bull and his goons, and the coolest set of the theme was of course Leo's Castle! This microscale version of 6091 contains all of the key features of the set, from the separating sections of the castle to the flag on the back (yes, a shield element really holds between plates like that!).
Other features include:
A rotating catapult and tower below it
An axe-dropping trap in a tower
A tower which launches a treasure chest when hit in the right place
A Bull's siege weapon
Drawbridge
Throne room

It's a little MOC that shows cool connection of parts and that I'm not dead.
