A new day, and a complete overhaul of the structure of the main section of the ship! I should now have a solid(ish) base on which to build the front half. The front half will be a triangular prism shape, approx the same diameter as the rear section. I have still not solved the connection to the reactor/engine section, but I also poached part of that section for the mid-ship greebles so it will need a complete overhaul anyway. I am also trying to work out what to actually do with the very front of the ship; any suggestions would be appreciated! Now to order some more dark blue parts…
Built by a student in one of my microscale classes. This is the kind of photo quality I'm able to get with my simple studio and a point-and-shoot camera.
Caravan ship no.20 it's one of the favourite spaceship's to long distance travel because their big inside.
A fairly basic, versatile mech. Invader has [active & passive] ladar mounted just below the cockpit, a dual-barreled laser cannon on the left arm, and a pair of claws on the right. All of the laser-based equipment is driven by a backpack-mounted system, which is powered by a pair of hot-swappable emission cores. Invader also carries a mech-scaled submachine gun for additional close-fire capabilities.
This week was supposed to be a break from Lego. Instead, I lasted 2 days. Oh well.
Since Brickworld, I've been wanting to do something in Micropolis-scale. No idea what the large building houses. Didn't really think about it when I built it. The coffee shop is just a coffee shop, enjoy it.
Of course, correctly Elizabeth Tower, but the "Big Ben" misnomer is so common (even LEGO use it in their set) I've gone along with it here.
Microscale Battlestar Galactica built for the CS group contest.
This was pretty much the quickest project ever. From reading about the contest to uploading on flickr in 1 hour and 15 minutes. Hooah!
Heather did some really cool microscale stuff a while back. I wish she had done more as she was really good at it.

This rough looking ship does what other ships are not equipped to do, discover hyperspace lanes. Outfitted with thousands of sensors, receivers, and spectrometers this craft was built to find the next space highway that will transport colonists and merchants to new systems and expand humanities existence to parts unknown. While dangerous, the reward can be substantial.
While superficially, Liberator is a relatively simple unit with a relatively simple shape, it employs a lot of curves and small details. To any micro-scale Lego scale artist, it means "it sucks".
This is a lot more complex than it looks. Also, Blizzard cheats, Concord cannon appears out of nowhere, and I can't replicate magic in a Lego microscale model *insert mad face*.
a micro Barbatos. It has (almost!) full articulation (the knees don't bend far enough for my liking) I had to redesign the chest many times till i settled on that solution.
