Why would a spaceship need boxingglove-esque torpedo tubes? Ship-slapping, of course! When you run out of ordnance, a good 'ole backhand will do him good!
Microscale transport shuttle. I'm not going to worry about getting the bumblebee stripes in these little ones - I'll put them in if I do an upscale version.
I wanted to build something with non-90-degree wings, and this is what I came up with. Originally just a nondescript building, my wife came home and said "Nice Hospital". I then added the H on the roof and the emergency entrance.
Found a use for the ski poles.
edit: Apparently not the first to use the ski poles this way. Oh well. Going for the "cutest" X-Wing then.
Join Tommy in this wonderfull live build. Today it's nanofighter time... only 6 parts for that
Second build for NerdVember !
Enjoy :)
Just a little semi to haul some stuff for the mobile crane to lift.
For more photos, see the full set.
Old fashioned, literally rough and ready container transport making friends, enemies and profits through the lawless frontier.
I named this pic 'Combined Arms' not because of incorporating air and land assets, but because I used both Lego and Kreo elements.
For the jet fighters, I used the Kreo mini-wings as vertical and horizontal stabilizers.
For the tracked vehicle, I used the Kreo treads, which are becoming one of my favorite pieces. I also used Brickarms M6 rockets as rockets for the bottom-right vehicle. (something I wanted to do ever since I bought them)
Ever since I started to collect the Kreo Transformers Microchangers, I knew that I wanted to incorporated some of their fantastic elements into my microscale armada. After finding some free time I did just that, which resulted in some neat configurations.

New Moc based on the Harry Potter Universe
-----------------------------------------
Harry, Ron and Hermione come back to Hogwarts for a new year. They took the Hogwarts Carriage at Hogsmeade. It is pulled by Thestrals, skeletal winged horses that only people who have seen death can see.
------------------------------------------
I tried something new in this new creation: the perspective (and microscale): the carriage is getting smaller and smaller on the scene. To the left, the trees are following the perspective and are getting smaller and smaller . To the right, the trees are on the first plan, so they can't be on the scale of perspective.
At the center, i built a microscale Hogwarts.
------------------------------------------
The perspective give me the possibilty to build a landscape without using billion of bricks.
It was the first time that I had used perspective and microscale. It's up to you to tell me if it's successful.
I still have to improve myself on it to produce new creations
------------------------------------------
See you soon for a next creation

Should have been flying out to Florida this week for a family trip to Disney. Been planning it for two years. Obviously there are more serious things going on than me missing out on a family holiday, but it's still made me a little glum. Decided to try and capture a little Disney magic in bricks if I can't do it in person.
Here's my attempt at a microscale build of Red Spacecat's USS Saratoga Destroyer.
I didn't have enough bright green cheese, so olive green will have to do. Some details aren't quite right, but its challenging to condense a SHIP into 16 studs long.
This is sized to be compatible with Mobile Frame Zero: Intercept Orbit
This is a microscale version of the Cat Bus from the Miyazaki movie "My Neighbor Totoro". It's part of my "Miyazakitopia" diorama for BrickCon 2010.
If you're wondering why I decided to make the Cat Bus so small, it's because the thing that it'll be flying around is frikking huge!
[If anybody has ANY critiques about my build or especially my photography and lighting, PLEASE let me know :) It would be most appreciated. I need to improve on both.]
These ships are for Intercept Orbit, the spaceship version of Mobile Frame Zero.
The Battlecruiser is a cruiser (right around 16 studs long), probably equipped with:
* 1 Yamato Cannon (support range)
* 1 Burst Cannon (direct range)
* 1 hangar (catapult)
* Armor (defense)
The Valkyries are frigates (they're just under 12 studs long)
* Swarm Missiles (Point Defense Range)
* Hangar (catapult)
* Armor (defense)
The Wraiths are Mobile Frame Companies.
The Dropship is the Mobile Frame Ace. Haven't decided what kind
Edit: Free instructions and parts list are available on my Rebrickable page:
Typical accomodation for humankind within the developed Core Worlds. Designed in the circular style of Alanis Ferr, this type of home was popular on new colonies like New Kansas.
The main level has the panoramic view whilst storage and bedrooms tend to be above and below the windowed section.
Built for New Elementary Parts Festival, inspired by the Duomos of Florence and Milan.
See here for details on parts usage and build process.
This was a challenge I made for myself: make a microscale Tantive IV using as many pieces as possible from Ambush in Cairo. I'm happy with how it turned out.
Appearing without The Dominos
Ya gotta be an oldie to remember them, Derek and The Dominos (and an Eric Clapton fan ) XD
Washburn is the US capital city of New Kansas, Kepler System. True to it’s namesake, New Kansas is a fertile farming world from which a wide variety of crops are cultivated and animals raised. Settlements range from small, old fashioned farms to large, mechanised outposts of synchronised machines and technology.
Washburn is the hub for all manner of activity; business, education and pleasure. It is the port by which New Kansas feeds a large proportion of the Core Worlds. The city is home to several of the top biochemical and veterinary colleges of their kind. A giant spaceport sits on the outskirts of the city, big enough to accommodate the larger interplanetary barges for the transfer of crops and livestock. There is also quite the lively nightlife; most of these bars and cantinas centre around the American Cool Revival trend. They feature music and décor reminiscent of American days gone by.
There exists a quiet acrimony the settlers who reside solely within Washburn and the more isolated farmers. The latter consider their city-based fellows stuck-up and pretentious. The former consider the farming population crass and uncultured.
The city is home to the New Kansas Senator, when she is not involved in democratic discussions back on Earth. Although officially neutral during the Pan-Eurasian War, several of the large farmers sold food to the under-siege Coalition population of Kepler II. One side of the story paints the farmers as saving the lives of starving children. The reality was that rich agricultural groups made huge profits breaking a neutrality clause set by the government. The US investigation into the food smuggling found no person or organisation culpable is considered a whitewash by the Coalition.
the rear view of a contemporary looking row of townhouses. Complete with railway at the end of the garden.
The front view is here and, I'm afraid, I'll upload lots more pics in the next few days ...
A small, swift missile frigate used by the Galactic Armada for taking down capital ships. While it does have devastating firepower its fatal flaw is its lack of weapons against fast smaller ships like starfighters. You never know when a bold starfighter pilot could send a proton torpedo down this ship's exhaust port...
Not really satisfied with the back end. Oh well.
Just wanted to upload this before I leave on my trip. Bye.
this is not just another microscale suburban street. No. this is inspired by an item in the news some time ago, see BBC News
:-)
Kind of something like maybe like a landmate or something from Appleseed. Who knows?
Anyway, the legs are heavily, heavily inspired by (or, another way, 'ripped off from') Will. So, chapeau to him for some great designs.
In Mobile Frame Zero terms, these would be in the scale where a 6ft tall human would equate to 2 bricks + 1 plate in height. Mobile Frame Hangar for thread can be found here.
