I’m sorry guys for not having been around lately and replying all your kind comments and questions on my previous builds, I’ve been very busy making this one, hope you guys like it :)
It’s my final build for this Iron Builder round…fiuhhh…what a relieve! I'm so tired and exhausted!...hahahaha
I never play Warhammer before and I’m not quite sure the exact world of Warhammer, and this build is inspired by my friend Dennis Qiu who’s a fan of Warhammer 40K. This is my take on the world of Warhammer Space Marine which I know this slightly different from the real Warhammer 40K, the shape, name, logo, etc. Therefore I call it Warhammer 50K, a reimagined from the world of Warhammer 40K.
For the building process itself, I look mostly for references on Google, Warhammer Wikia, and Warhammer Model Kit.
Other Lego builder references which inspired this build are:
▪ For references on Warhammer made with Lego I look on Jerac’s build which is very awesome and true with the original design of Warhammer, and Gary Rocks works with his awesome LDD design of Warhammer using heavily custom part color.
▪ For the castle ruins on the background, I use Derfel Cadarn tutorial technique and wall texture style.
▪ For the shot/bullet effect is inspired by the exploration works by Grantmasters.
I would also like to thank my friends who letting me buy and or borrow their Dark Blue parts and Minifigs: Andry Gosal, Felix Wilson, Dody Bachtiar, and Dede Kurniawan :)
Based from all that references and the limitation of part choices in Dark Blue and what I have, I have to modified shape and design from the original Warhammer design.
This build also mark my first use of using water slide decal (for the helmet face), and this build also took the longest time to plan and build, and most difficult to build and taking the photo by far from my other entry for this IB round.

The evil servant of something like Hell. Big fan of fiery whips and eternal suffering.
I wanted to remake Lava Beast, but something went wrong, so this evil guy was born.
Any comments are welcome!
The final week of Mechtober! This week the seed part was a printed slope from the RoboForce sets. I decided to emphasize the gold details in the print by using a bunch of drum lacquered parts in order to avoid this being mistaken as some kind of Blacktron thing. This one might be my favorite mech overall, it deviates from the standard "Explorer" frame in a bunch of interesting ways and its color scheme gives it a nice regal, sinister vibe. And the rubber bands for cables between the hips and chest feel pretty spot-on to the print, too!
For a contest on roguebricks.de I jumped back to one of my favorite childhood themes, Lego Aquanauts. The landscape is highly inspired by Anthony Wilson and the sub is orientated to the Crystal Explorer Sub - 6175. Hope you like it.

This is the first in a series, the idea of which was spawned by the release of Bounty Hunter Speeder Bike Battle Pack.
I never had a clear idea of the scale I was building in, and only a basic idea of what he would look like, so he evolved over time.
As he got bigger he needed constant redesigning to prevent him collapsing under his own weight.
It's been nearly 5 years in the making, with a lot of learning along the way.
A big shout out to the likes of:
for showing me what is possible.
Support it on LEGO IDEAS : ideas.lego.com/projects/2d338638-5679-42b6-b8d7-7c0166bab999
Yes it is a functioning telescope, just like 21323 Grand Piano is a functioning piano. Meaning, you can see what's in the sky, but not actual stars, nor the real Moon.
So how does it work ? There's a light brick hidden inside the model. It is activated by pressing the lens, and the light passes through a decorated transparent piece (sets like 75810, 10273 or 70917 use this principle), magnifying glasses (I know, the way they are placed on the model is not realistic, but it's for LEGO IDEAS), bounces on a "mirror" (a tile with a shiny sticker), so when you look through the eyepiece, you can see what you could see if you looked through an actual telescope.
Since it could be a bit boring to always see the same thing, my entry comes with four different patterns, that were designed by Thi's studs. There's a galaxy, Jupiter with the Galilean moons, the Moon, and the Solis Magna system. Jupiter and the Moon are a reference to Galileo Galilei, who invented the telescope and discovered the existence of satellites orbiting Jupiter. The Solis Magna system is a nod to BIONICLE.
The model is made of 231 parts, and you can see it in 3D on Mecabricks : www.mecabricks.com/en/models/oK2w7Rk029k
MOC: Road Repair Tractor. A modern interpretation of the classic set 6647, Highway Repair from 1980.
Part of my "Updated Classics" series - an ever-growing number of sets I've re-interpreted in order to make them fit better with modern LEGO City vehicles and buildings.
The original set from 1980 is one of the earlier sets I own, and I remember liking it a lot because of the accessories. So my update obviously features a whole lot of accessories, which the trailer is full of.
I did put this one off for a while - because although LEGO has released a lot of tractor sets, I had never tried to build my own. Finally I figured, how hard could it be? And had a go. I based it loosely on some of the iconic smaller blue Ford tractors - and I'm surprised how well that worked.
All stickers are original LEGO stickers. Some have been cut to fit.
The big wheel of the "Ultra Stealth Raider " was the starting point for this MOC. I only have this one, so what could I use it for?
The result is a futuristic, five-wheeled offroader. The look of it reminds me a bit of the Beetle or the Kübelwagen ("The Thing") from Volkswagen, so I put the printed VW tiles on the wheels.
But why on earth would one build a five-wheeled car like this? No clue! Yes, the traction is probably pretty good but the view from the cockpit is pretty one-sided...
My next litlle creation this time with dedication for my friend from Poland - Lego_Fan.
Roof technique from here.
I tought that I invented new technique but it turned out that someone used it a few years ago.
The large numbers of obsolete 886 Space Buggies left scattered around the galaxy proved to be excellent material for modifications and upgrades. On such example was this prototype rig, used for the early trials of walking vehicles.

AMOC of Creator Set#31034: Future Flyer
PDF Instruction: https://www.bricksafe.com/files/dvdliu/Misc-64-31034-Frog-AMOC.pdf
New year, new builds.
I want to start this year with a new project - something I've always wanted to do. Remastering some of my old LEGO sets that I had as a kid.
First on the list was set 7628 Peril in Peru: brickset.com/sets/7628-1/Peril-in-Peru From the Indiana Jones line. I loved this theme as a kid, and even though this set was only based on a deleted scene from the Kingdom of the Crystal Skull, I dearly loved it. The set is based on the DC-3. Luckily for me, it has already been done a few times in LEGO.
I took a lot of inspiration from builder Vaionaut: flic.kr/p/QbcRFV - who's model was inspired by builder Obuh Samateus (the original Cuusoo/Ideas DC-3 entry): ideas.lego.com/s/p:49e3ebaec2614a1d8d3a10a09ead38e0
I've only had the past few days to work on the digital model (thanks to covid), but I'm excited to get going on my first ever LEGO plane MOC!
It's not 100% complete here, just a start to see how it might go together when I build it for real. I hope it's strong enough to support the solid wings, which house Circuit Cube motors to power the propellers.
After this, I'll finish my old WIPs from last year and try to start my home layout again.
My submission to Brickset's Instagram competition to commemorate 60 Years of the LEGO brick, here's my microscale replica of the LEGO Space Futuron massive model "Monorail Transport System!"
I actually owned this set when I was very young, and I've always considered it my favorite LEGO set of all time. Despite growing up in poverty, I managed to get hold of this gargantuan model at age 6: after my parents divorced in 1989, my father moved away and tried to win me in a custody battle by sending me this huge set for my birthday. With my lack of dexterity at the time, I was unable to assemble most of this huge model according its instructions, and instead used the parts to make random space stations and ships. Then at age 7, I used components of the monorail to build a space station MOC as an entry to a LEGO-building contest at our local KMart in Lancaster, PA. I won a t-shirt for my efforts.
When my family moved around a lot in my childhood, I lost many key components of the monorail, and to this very day, only some of the grey tracks and black stanchions survive in my collection. Eventually some day I plan on installing this monorail to travel around the perimeter of the interior my house. Unfortunately the grey tracks are incredible rare, so hopefully a 3D printing techniques can fill in the gaps.
As for this particular model/photo: I built this in just a few days, with the major obstacle being the wait for the curved tiles to arrive in the mail. Otherwise, the overall project was rather streamlined. Subsequent challenges involved the photo shoot: the big challenge was shooting it in low light with proper fill light, in order to keep the backgrounds dark and the subject exposed enough. I placed the model on top of a black folding table, then achieved the red glowing background by placing a red spotlight up against a black backdrop. Then I pointed a bright white softbox over the scene, and diffused it with a reflector disc.
My winning model of Brickset's mascot Huwbot is on LEGO Ideas. Support is appreciated.
There's also instructions on him on Rebrickable. Build your own now! Made by enigmatic mysterys person.
This bit refurbished version is photographed and assembled by Brickset's Huw, used here with permission. Thanks Huw!
"I'm sorry, sir. You should probably come back another time. I can tell this is your first time buying a dragon, so let me offer you some advice. SUMMER is the absolute worst time to buy dragons, everybody knows that! When the temperature rises, almost all dragon breeds become more active and you can easily lose a hand or a leg, and how are you supposed to ride a dragon after that? Trust me. Our family has been in the dragon business for almost a hundred years. We know everything about the dragons in these parts. For example, it may not look like it but I can assure you that this one is the best one. Not the cheapest mind you, but you want quality, don't you? Now if you can't tell that, then please stand back and leave it to the professionals."
This is what my brother said to our first customer this morning, and this is why I'm in such a good mood. That big viking was an imbecile, and we couldn't just let one of our prized dragons go to him. He left our shop without even looking. What can I say. Not only do you choose your dragon, but your dragon has to choose you too...and here at The Edge we have a lot dragons: fire breathers, green hornets, saberhorns, granny tooths and even rhino dragons. Just saying, if you are looking for one...

This is my entry for the Through the Seasons category in this year's Summer Joust 2021. I've teamed up with 3 awesome builders: Ted, Magnus and Josh. Thank you very much guys for your feedback and ideas! Thank you Ted also for helping me with the backstory!
Poison Ivy utilizes two CMF Plant Monster headpieces for her breasts. They were the first pieces used for the figure and they helped inspire the rest of the character's design choices.

So I've been building some Brickheadz in my spare time, mostly built just for fun!
Since the Brickheadz line started I've been causally building my own in my down time between major projects. Generally speaking, my photography takes hours upon hours of work and plenty of dedication; so taking time to just relax and build can be pretty therapeutic :)
I've built about fourteen or so different DC Brickheadz for myself, and with the Brickset Contest coming to a close I figured I'd share some of my favorites just cuz. These aren't amazing or anything, but I just wanted to be part of this enormous contest and put my hat in the ring, as it were :P
It's a little different from my normal posts, but if you like them or want to see more in the future, let me know! :)
Anyway, be sure to check out Patreon in the next day or so, because some new Black Lantern Minifig photo's are coming soon!
Otherwise, I'll be seeing you all in a week!
A few years ago I rebuilt the #6781 SP -Striker from my childhood, maybe my favorite Lego set of all time, and I've been wanting to rebuilt it with more modern parts while keeping the original shapes, proportions and of course light function. The build went quite easily and only took a few hours, but the lighting system was quite challenging. My first idea was to use PF lights, but it was a failure. In the end, I'm using 3 light bricks: a white/yellow for the cockpit console, and two red ones for the main lights. A knob allows to switch the lights on and of (I'll try to make a picture of the mechanism). I also had to redesign the cell pod, again trying to keep the same size and shape. I added a M-Tron magnet on top because magnets are cool! And that allows me to secure the pod at the back of the Striker without using clips.
Hope you like it as much as I do :)
"Whether you need a new cart or have one to repair, come to the Corner Cartwright, and we'll be there!"
My entry to the "Every Set Could be a Castle Set" category of the Summer Joust. I did the 10264 Corner Garage set from 2019.
I made the building in a similar shape as the one in the official Corner Garage. I included many of the features too, like the tree, the balcony, the sign, and a chimney. Instead of the gas pumps I put in a well, and instead of the truck I put in a horse and cart.
A photo of the build by itself can be found here!
Hope you like it!
Another lovely childhood set that needed to be revamped. Because of this conversation.
Here's a build I created on the fly:
They have a story, so please standby.
The first one, despite looking glad,
Deep down inside feels very sad.
(Because its oral hygiene is pretty bad)
The second one demanded the others to stay put.
It was grumpy because its nose is Pohatu's foot.
And so the third one just stood there like a rock.
It didn't seem to mind its nose is an engine block.
(The third one also resembles Donald Trump.
This was unintentional.
Plus, doesn't rhyme)
Today I have finally reached 500 followers on Flickr, and the fact the 500th follower happens to be the extremely talented Nannan Z. is awesome!
I'll like to thank everyone who has favorited, commented and shared my work; without that I wouldn't have lasted this long and hope it continues as we progress into future :)
Future:
I have been uploading photos daily and I have finally come to see that it's over saturating my creativity and it's becoming less exciting. From now on I'll commit to at least one photograph, MOC or graphic a week. That way I can spend more time on other commitments and it will allow my work to have much better quality which is better than quantity.
Q&A:
Ask anything in the comments and I'll answer all of them as long as they are related to LEGO or my Flickr :)
Origins:
I first joined Flickr to upload a portfolio as requested by one the universities in January 2014, I didn't get into that university and instead went to Middlesex University (Hendon Campus) where I have completed my first year studying BA Product Design :)
I didn't avidly use Flickr until Summer 2014 when I entered the 'Neo-Classic Space MOC Contest' on Brickset Forum to produce a Classic Space MOC under 338 pieces. From that contest I created several MOC's which got me really engaged in MOC building and pushed me to create some pretty awesome MOC's which progressed to my recent photography which allowed me to present my MOC's in a professional and unique manner.

After somebody over on Brickset stumbled across my CarBorg drawings over on my Deviantart page (here: theoneveyronian.deviantart.com/ - if any of you are on DA then feel free to come and say hi to me over there and/or follow me there if you want!), they suggested to me that I should "bring some Speed Champions sets to life in CCBS" and told me to do it with the Audi R8 LMS Ultra set. So I did, and this is the result: Vorspruk the irate Audi! (excuse the terrible play on words, given that when spoken, "R8" sounds a bit like "irate").
Got to say, this one broke me right out of my builder's block and in fact this may not be the last Speed Champions set I bring to life. If there's a Speed Champions set you'd like me to bring to life, suggest it in the comments and I might just do it sometime in the future! :)
Saw this polybag on Shopee, decided to get it... Modified it with the same style as the other racers... Hahah!! I'm a bit crazy with these cute racers at the moment...
Wasn't sure about the guy on the right but I think he looks okay with the older smile face and Rex Dangervest's hair... And I reconfigured the blue guy, I like this combo better!
Some old builds in a not so great photo, uploading this for archiving purposes mostly.

Some builds take on their own life. This loco started out as tablescrap with the cannon part. I gave it some rolling stock thinking it might be a cute holiday train. Instead it got huffy and demanded a bridge. And a bridge needs something to cross ...

The black alien is a cross between Ridley and a Xenomorph, whereas the robot is mostly my imagination. :)
Sorry that I haven't been building more, I'll try to pick my pace up!
The seed part is the lime telephone.

Note: If you build this you have to replace all green headlight bricks with 1x1 Technic Bricks. OK?
Due to the slight annoyance of having their citizens eaten by the beast of ABS, the Blacktron Empire created a task force to eliminate the foul creature.

Obi Wan Kenobi’s Starfighter. My previous version of the Delta 7 looked beefy. The Delta 7 is quite small, and according to BrickSet comes in at approximately 19cm in mini fig scale. This edition is about 28cm, but is 2 studs shorter than my previous model. I went with a different fin arrangement, however the cockpit does not open now. In shortening the design I had to delete the underside laser cannons. I added the plate modified rubber pieces to the top of the fuselage, to more accurately reflect the Delta’s shape. I really like how these worked.
MOC: Bike Shop & Repair. A modern interpretation of the classic set 6699, "Cycle Fix-It Shop" from 1987.
Part of my "Updated Classics" series - an ever-growing number of sets I've re-interpreted in order to make them fit better with modern LEGO City vehicles and buildings.
I've kept the basic shape of the original set, as well as the beams on the roof, and obviously the colour scheme, but added as much detail as I could - including a garage door - while keeping it on a 32x32 baseplate.
The building also has attachment points placed according to the LEGO Modular building standard on the left side, which means it can be integrated in a modular layout.
AX-16 'Chapparal' Warfighting Drone
This started as a couple of different table scraps, exploring different shoulder and lower leg joints. The head came together while I was parting out 75215 Cloud-Rider Swoop Bikes. The whole package seemed to work well enough to be postable, so I added some close range weapons systems.
As a frame, it’s way larger than my typical building scale, but the lessons that I learned playing with in the knee, ankle, elbow and shoulder joints might be beneficial in a scaled down or reduced size version.
This is a slowly growing annoyance on Facebook LEGO fan pages. People post images of pieces they don't recognize and ask the internet to identify it for them. Seems lazy when they could look it up themselves on Bricklink or Brickset. I mean, that's all we would do.
I'm not sure what these two are up to, but it looks suspiciously like a robot joyride to me ...
This two-seat speeder, called the Wespe, was the first real commercial success of the Löffelschmitt works. Ducted fan propulsion made it far more stable in Aurora's gravitational anomalies than predecessors such as the Libelle. (See more flying machines from the Aurora System.)
For more photos, see the full set.
As you can see I picked up set 41097 Hot Air Balloon on sale and wanted to do something with those great curved panels ... the magenta ones are in this MOC.
Similar to an older truck which I have... I followed the design found in the Lego book: brickset.com/sets/250-1/Building-Ideas-Book
