A row of contemporary terraced houses. This is the street view but those of you who have seen the WIP progressing know that there is something at the back as well ...
hope you like it.
Loosely modeled on a Liebherr crane I saw on the way to work the other day. I make no claims to accuracy though.

A microscale modernist family home of my own design, with influences from various mid 20th Century architects.
Used by many organizations, the RF-6's engine was made for ships many times larger. Astral Dynamics, known mostly for its military and exploration ships, took a risk with a light and extremely powerful cargo ship during a troubling financial time. This risk did pay off, though and variants can be seen from the most downtrodden industrial centers to the most luxurious casinos.
Here it is in a Royal Knesian livery, courtesy of the Third House of Knesia.
Boxes (or cases) stacked asymmetrically on top of each other form this modern house. At the same time it´s an angle case study.
The rate of progress has slowed somewhat now that most of what I have left to do is detail work and closing up odd gaps left by the triangular geometry. The big update is that I have mostly covered the front now, though there is an awkward triangular gap in the very centre of the front I am left to resolve. It is tempting to just cram it with antenna etc but I don’t think that would really suit the overall aesthetic. Any suggestions would be appreciated!
Designed primarily to fulfill a low-orbit "Wild Weasel" role, the Zephyr is fast enough to outrun the most advanced targeting systems, while simultaneously tracking anti-air gun emplacements and marking them for termination.
(Thanks for the views, comments/suggestions/criticisms encouraged!)
Happy to finally bust the builder's block again!
Due to personal & family responsibilities, I have been absent from the hobby for a while. But I'm back! Feels great to create again.
Special thanks to Simon Liu! This was constructed from a drone MOC he gave to me after BFVA 2015. It didn't survive the move to a new house, so it was torn down and used as inspiration to start building again.
I'm excited to be back in the community - it's been a long time coming! Thank you all for your continued support and friendship. This is a great community and though I was sad to be away from it, now I'm excited to get back to it!
I do not know when and why I built it, but I decided that it is good enough to put it on public display.
Loosely modeled on a Liebherr crane I saw on the way to work the other day. Obviously the real thing has a much longer boom.

I am painfully aware that I haven't posted anything in nearly a year. Been busy with builds, but too damn lazy to set up my photography area. These should do for now...
A friend gave me one of these little pull-back chassis; so, I felt obliged to build something cool upon it. Wanted to incorporate some recent parts too.
So, yeah, there's bonus content--it rips like hell across the floor!

Seeing a need for a ship that could be shown continuously exploding for dramatic effect, the Expendable class packs surprising versatility for such a small vessel. Three turreted hand cannons provide close-in fighter defense while four torpedo tubes provide for some punch against more heavily armored and main character filled ships. The Expendable mounts one LG-79C as its main gun/anti-mecha-warfare mobile armor.
Armament:
3 x hand cannons
4 x half pin torpedoes
Strike Craft:
1 x small mech mount (LG-79C Box standard)
As always, 1 stud = 5 meters
“Fit for business and leisure as well as the grey areas in between. In vogue among the martian crime lords.”
I shared this a couple years back, before flickr granted unlimited uploads to all users. Enjoy, again.
They're getting married to preserve an important treaty or something. Don't be too surprised if one of them ends up dead.
This is one of my contributions to InnovaLUG's latest collaborative build, Space Spheres. See more in this blog post on the InnovaLUG website.
vaguely in the style of the LEGO Architecture sets. Vaguely. As used for the shadow pictures. Go on, I know you're curious to see the shadow pictures ...
It's been awhile since I built a microscale spaceship. They're great for when you don't have a lot of time to build, but want to get something accomplished. They're also great for using small, but really cool looking pieces.
Just a quick build. Heavily inspired by Marco Marozzi's mech foot concept:

This build dates from 2016, though I have modified it and updated it several times. It was inspired by the Royal Navy's Type 45 Destroyers (and reading Patrick O'Brian's Aubrey/Maturin novels). Features include a small flight deck, 2 x Phalanx CIWS, high-calibre guns, and a powerful radar.
