Confession : I've taken inspiration from a very talented Dutch builder ( @wolskameijerink on Instagram ) for the frame technique.
Cheap and easy to use. Rugged design with a simple maintenance program. Can take a lot of punishment but can't give out all that much. Effective for small budding nations, and not a problem for donor nation to deal with if that budding nation goes rogue, after all you never want to sell your best stuff XD
Sometimes you get tired of big models and want to build something without spending days and weeks for it :) This little guy is based on Ward fighter from GOF2, although I had to come up with some form and design changes due to its small scale.
This was part of my Lego club's layout at our exhibition last weekend. We had tons of extravagant once-per-city buildings but almost no housing so I came up with some low-key apartment buildings.
My first ever microscale build for the "New Elementary" Blog, using the Nexo Knights Shields and new double-cornered panel as a portico.
For those not familiar with New Elementary is worth a read!

A microscale block of flats in Swedish summer surroundings.
In some way inspired by the art of Jaxco (000float @ Instagram).
Central to Wasp Squadron, you are clear to dock in sector 5. Welcome home commander!
It's good to have you back.

Pheron 4Y ... you cruel mistress. Your acid clouds and strong winds eroded the surface. Nothing lives down there anymore. So we built our cities above the clouds and into the sunlight.
Now as I pop out of these poisonous clouds ... I get a glimpse of my city ... basking in the last rays of sunlight ... it truly is a magnificent view ... one that get's me every time.
I get that warm, fluffy feeling and I know ... I'm home.

Designed to function as a long-range communications and surveillance vessel, the Anansi's exhaustive sensor apparatus allow it to provide invaluable telemetry for coordinating ship movements across uncharted or contested territories.
Been bouncing WIPs around for a while now. Figured I should just knuckle down and push something out.

first block of a microscale neighbourood. In a city with a river through it. Something like Chicago.
more to come, hopefully.
Day 4 of RebelLUG's Vignweek contest from 2024. The theme was "Microscale Set" which means, I quote "Revamp a LEGO set or sets in micro scale"
The Boutique Hotel (10297-1), one of my favorite set ever, it's just looking amazing, so naturally I decided to make it smaller, 2 time smaller by the way. It turns out it was way more complicated than expected because of the architecture, I could have seen it come but overwall, very fun to make.
Because of the time limit and the architecture, I wasn't able to make an interior but the first floor was windows not covered. Oh and the back isn't made (surprisingly x) )
Hope you like it though and see you tomorrow for Day 5 !
Some examples of what the finished trees may look like.
There are lots of other ways to build trees like this, so just go ahead and try different things. If you lack a piece for something, just try replacing it with something else. It might just end up even better :)
Happy building!

Read on Eurobricks here.
While automated cargo ships and FTL travel are the backbone of the galaxy's economy now, they wouldn't be possible without thousands of survey spacecraft rigorously scanning almost every known part of it. The development of Lane 6 and divisions, which currently carry upwards of 45% of galactic shipping, was the largest peaceful operation in history and the data that the original surveyors generated is still widely used, dozens of cycles later.
The craft shown is a Drenner E-31S, one of the most widely used craft.

Finally got some time to finish rendering of this micro Hook and Ladder 8 (also known as Ghostbusters building)
There are some strange rendering artefacts can be seen.

Scharnvirk's personal battleship, massive weapon platform perfectly suited for pirate raids on unsuspecting convoys. Armed to teeth with mutliple missile launchers, turrets and heavy beam cannons in front. Brickshelf gallery
The square on the left flips to be either the base or the lid. The landscape on the right folds inside out to make the sides of the box. The castle attaches to either the open or closed box.
AFAIK no LEGO techniques here are original -- for example all the tree designs are well-known Micropolis style trees.
For more photos, see the full set.
My first microscale MOC, also an entry for CCC XX and Brickscalibur
It's also the first time I've used GIMP to edit my photo. :)
The completed LEGO microscale habitat stack is finally here!
Over the past few months I have built a wide selection of 8x8 LEGO microscale habitats and today I'm going to give you a complete overview, including a new polar one and a rework of the OG habitat, the japanese garden.
Here's the video:
I walked by a mobile crane the other day and it reminded me how interesting they are. And once I had the crane sorted, of course it needed a construction site ...
