More microscale landscaping.
Had this idea for plam trees for a bit and was trying to think of a suitable setting.
The Island is modeled after the small baseplate from the original Pirate sets in 1989, but four times larger.
This picture shows that there actually is a little bit more to my most recent scene than just a blurred forced perspective. There is a downtown sort of cityspace, featuring a radio tower, red warning lights and all such things, however also a hint of Favela like mountainside slums at the edge.
This leads me to the question, would you be interested in a scene tutorial about perspective, lighting and some techniques similar to vehicle instructions?
My first entry in "Mi-Fi" - Microscale Sci-fi LEGO contest. The purple colour chosen for the background is there to remind the real colour of the track in the movie :-)
Just a quick build after I received my bricks from the mail. I love how this came out; I tried to make it look as close to an actual Humvee as possible. What do you guys think?
When Hyperion Industries released their X1-A25 "Wasp", it quickly became the standard for fighter craft. Two modified artillery cannons were bolted onto a novel platform that enabled a three-person crew to make devastating attacks against other fightercraft and even, in one instance, a T-59 destroyer. It remains a potent weapon to this day.

What's been going on in Joe´s Garage lately? What's with all the boxes? Why is Joe staying up late at night? Joe is just about to show every one what he's been working on for the last three years.
This... is... Betty! Wroom! wroom!
Some quick tablescrap microbuilds; having never built anything on the standard 16x16 micro city grid.
This is the next model of my Microscale Truck series. In my opinion this is my best. I built 2 or 3 versions, before I get it right. Not easy to put so many details in that small scale. I hope you love it, like I do!

Yeah the connections with the cannon part get pretty ugly ... luckily it has lots of technic openings :)
None of the wheels turn, and the train cars aren't really coupled together, but they sit tightly on the tracks (which are exactly two bricks/six plates apart, as are the edges of the wheels).

As suggested by Miro, some micro Star Wars characters. Of course now I'm thinking about a micro cantina and a micro dewback. *sigh*
A microscale version of one of my favourite Lego sets from 2014, 21109 Exo Suit. Initial design by Peter Reid and brought to life by Mark Stafford.
Pretty happy with it; it’s all legal connections, and I wanted to utilise the Mixel ball joints, but how I wish element 2566 (Plant, Tree Palm Top) were available in a shade of grey.
It's time for another LEGO Microscale Habitat!
As suggested by one of my viewers, here's a mini LEGO Volcano.
I'm still thinking about using a lighter blue for the sky, but at the end I'm pretty happy on how it turned out.
Do you think the lava effect turned out well?
Check out the video tutorial on my YouTube channel:
A microscale modernist family home of my own design, with influences from various mid 20th Century architects.

These Eco-skyscrapers are an example of an emerging trend in architecture. Create environmentally friendly structures that reduce the environmental impact of new developments. This development features lush landscaping on the roof tops of the buildings as well as the two "sky bridges". There are numerous trees on the grounds as well as ponds and a community garden and solar panels.
This is the Lonesome Valkyrie and it's my entry for the Mini Castle Contest IV.
It has a moving wind mill, boats, a cart with horse in the bridge and also a movable drawbridge.
Micro-landmarks from around the world.
Due to a lack of space and time I am embarking upon a micro-scale Lego landmark tour of the world.
I’ve made a list of 57 landmarks from 31 different cities. Over half of the landmarks I’ve selected are from one of four cities: New York City, Washington D.C., London, and Paris.
First stop: Big Ben in London
Note: This will be the 4th time I’ve built Big Ben (Each time at a different scale; this model is the smallest version yet). The first two models I built were yellow because at the time tan parts were too expensive.
Next stop: Might as well stay in London: Tower Bridge, Tower of London, Globe Theater, Swiss Re, Buckingham Palace, Westminster Abbey, or St. Paul’s Cathedral?
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
Started in on my entry for the Harry Potter Microscale contest
My oldest daughter and wife are big Harry Potter fans and suggested I build Hogsmeade.
This is a first for me for doing a full microscale building, not to mention one with a really complicated roof!
This is the first of a few buildings I will be doing for the diorama
Come join me on
Keep Dreaming in Bricks!

Here is what I'll call my first "official" MOC.
Forgive the poor photography and editing... also my first attempt at photographing Lego and editing with GIMP.
Let me know what you think, feedback is appreciated.
These sections show the interior spaces, with the roof of the main house removed.
