Micro Imperial Star Destroyer from Lego Star Wars Advent Calendar 2015

The Agents Mobile Command Center is an awesome set as you all probably know. The only downside is, so to speak, that it stretches the term "minifig scale" really really far. 12 studs wide, to be precise. Since all the other trucks in minifig scale are 6-wide, I figured a 1:2 scale model of the set had to blend just fine into LEGO City.

Obviously, it didn't turn out quite as expected. Now I have a truck that barely fits a minifig and is otherwise pretty useless. On the other hand: Micro-Agents! Woot!

Micro Bird School Bus by Girardin.

A small scale version of the Hoth Rebel Base from Empire Strikes Back (which I will keep). On the right side we see the Ion cannon on top of the hangar doors (had to compress the landscape) and on the left we have the front trenches with the shield generator behind.

I decided to start learning to build a bit more elaborately with some thought and planning and more advanced brick connections. The tiny side windows were a trick I devised that I later learned others also solved this kind of thing long before I did! I wanted to accomplish a reasonably interesting scene with some modular features (the middle portion slides out).

Also check out my latest favorite build, the Taj Mageddon! (click to see and then navigate left/right to see the alternate angles).

Sledgehammer(Mobile) - Medium, slow and unarmed.

Bottom Row

Hailfire - Big, amphibious and armed with twin Arrow Rocket Pods.

Fussilade - Medium, robust and armed with paired Flak Cannons

Sledgehammer(Deployed) - Medium, immobile and armed with a 350mm Artillery Cannon.

Crappy photoshop job on this. :/

This tiny Lego "micro-grabber" uses only 12 parts to attach onto a Lego Mindstorms EV3 Medium Motor. The small, geared pincers are 24014 "Technic, Arm with Gear 8 Tooth and 1.5L Axle" ( www.bricklink.com/v2/catalog/catalogitem.page?P=24014#T=C... ) that turn when the black Worm Gear rotates. The micro-grabber at the top shows optional, black 45590 "Technic, Axle Connector Double Flexible (Rubber)" pieces ( www.bricklink.com/v2/catalog/catalogitem.page?P=45590#T=C ) to keep things from slipping. To make the pincers longer, one could add Technic Axle Connectors ( www.bricklink.com/v2/catalog/catalogitem.page?P=6538c#T=C ) to hold Technic Axles. Or, one could add some bent #3-#6 Technic Connectors on the ends of the pincers. The Lego Digital Designer (LDD) .lxf Building Instructions file, plus Parts List, for the Micro-Grabber alone is available on Rebrickable.com: rebrickable.com/mocs/MOC-6791/DLuders/micro-grabber/ .

It's interesting to try out different scales on the models. If they have kept some of the character after all details are gone, and almost reduced to something abstract, I'm happy with composition. This one loses a lot when reduced, but still better than what I expected.

Panasonic G Series Micro 4/3

The previous weeks' escapades with microscale spacecraft left me itching for something more substantial...and something more asymmetrical. A bit of the inspiration for this probably stems from David Simon's Niobe, but I think I mostly just wanted to expand on last week's cockpit section.

On a separate note related only by the fact that I was listening to the audiobooks while building: what do people have to say about the Ender's Game sequels and prequels? I enjoyed the first half of Xenocide enormously, but toward the end it reached a level of metaphysical weirdness I don't know if I can put up with much more. For any other science nerds out there: is Children of the Mind actually worthwhile? I can deal with the suspension of disbelief that deals with philotic communication, but the whole "children" part just seems like stupid philosophical drivel. Your opinions?

Unable to abandon Mr Card's narrative completely, I moved to the new prequel trilogy and built this MOC mostly while listening to Earth Unaware. Thus far it is enjoyable, relatively believable, and, in contrast to the later Ender books, a bit more grounded in known physics. The one criticism I have is his justification for forcing the human ships to slow or even "stop" in order to spacewalk or dock.

A LDD to Pov-Ray render of a micro-scale version of Serenity. Design shamelessly stolen from Ichiban toys ;-)

I used this to test the shiny floor definition. Rendering took about 16 hours on an Intel Core i7 930.

For those of you interested, you can find the LXF file (for LDD) here: dl.dropbox.com/u/4475645/Lego/Micro_Serenity.lxf

A very rare sighting of a tiny micro bat , which chose to shelter on the brick wall under cover of the veranda during daytime. You can gauge the size of this little creature against the height of the brick. They are nocturnal and feed on insects in the dark of night. Normally it would find a hiding spot in a tree or cave, in the bush, which is nearby, but obviously can adapt to suburban living.

I have only seen one other, about 20 years ago, which was in a garden bed and not looking very well, but it was sent to WIRES , an organisation which looks after native animals.

I found this website which describes various micro bats in Australia. www.allaboutbats.org.au/micro-bats/

This is my first original Micro Space creation in a really long time (if you don't count my fanboy cover Micro Gothica). I figured I was due.
