This is a MOC that I have been wanting to build for about a month or so. It started out originally as a one day project, and then 11 days after the project’s beginning, I sit here typing the description. Life has been…BUSY, to say the least. There are many more ideas that I am dying to start constructing…
Heavily inspired from the iOS app Epic Zen Garden, I knew that I wanted to try to make an architectural MOC in microscale. Another huge source of inspiration goes to the enormously talented MOCer Rocco Buttliere (BrickWorld Master 2016), who I had the great pleasure of meeting and displaying next to at BrickWorld Chicago 2016. Please check out his outstanding MOCs.
The MOC features a pseudo-Frank-Lloyd-Wright-style layout, complimented by a Japanese cherry blossom tree and rock garden. The gazebo was somewhat of an addition to simply fill space, though if I do say so myself I think it goes perfectly there. :P
Your comments and critique on both the MOC and photo quality are so very much appreciated.

This is a small truck created for a Facebook challenge. The challenge was to create a microscale vehicle with maximum 15 parts.
The Sanctuary rises from a ridge overlooking four valleys, famed for the clarity of their seasons. People from the region may be admitted to the Sanctuary for a period of secluded reflection -- traditionally, in Spring, for those who have just ended their education; in Summer, for those recently recovered from a life-threatening illness; in Autumn, for those who have completed their life work; or in Winter, for those who have lost a loved one.
A carved and painted folding box is a traditional memento for people who have stayed at the Sanctuary. Its design represents their experience, which can be held close inside, or unfolded to share the peace of the Sanctuary.

Somebody asked if I could show them a "behind the scenes" of my last scene and I obliged. However, I soon realised that having an actual behind-the-scenes would be virtually impossible as the photo had been an outside shot with certain variables that are not present today. So instead, I give you the partly destroyed microscale skyline that I used. As you can see, I discovered an awesome way of creating blocky skyscrapers which are similar to (but smaller in scale than) my previous design.
I tagged Christian because he likes microscale things giggity.

A small, nimble 'koma useful for public maintenance and support services in a futuristic city.
(A fast build for a stay-at-home Sunday ... I couldn't let Marchikoma just go by, now could I?)
This model is truly a triumph over angles (for me at least) as it has many irregular building techniques I've never used before. This model will be displayed at BrickWorld Chicago 2017 at the RebelLUG table.
Boba fett's Slave I flying over bespin's beautiful sunset, with cloud city in the distance.
EDIT: I've posted new pictures of the updated model.
Microscale modern architecture build. The idea was to incorporate nature and slanting green surfaces.
Another microscale build is about to be published soon - stay tuned!
A mini-scaled building in the style of one I did 5 years ago! At the time I thought I'd build more buildings of this size, so I included technic bricks with holes to start some sort of modular mini-scaled street. Then I never got around at building another one, until now! This build took quite a while and has a rather intricate inside to enable diagonal building. I actually explored a lot of different diagonal and SNOT techniques during the process of building this. I might upload a breakdown of the inside and some additional assemblies that didn't make the cut later.
Wow, I can't believe I haven't uploaded anything in six months! Of course, busy is always the excuse, but I must admit I had to rediscover my building motivation a bit. Right now summer is starting and that means I'll have more time to get building again. Hopefully see you soon!
This was my entry to a Micropolis design contest (and actually won a prize). It shows some historic brewery buildings, inspired by some real buildings but not really copying them.
Mario's happy dinosaur pal done in lego. So lately I've been sharpening my microscale skills with small projects. This one came about from fooling around with the green technic figure helmet and thinking, wow that would be perfect for Yoshi's nose. So I shoved a smaller helmet underneath to make his jaw. Pretty neat eh?
Given a small bag of "green" from the PAB Wall by fellow Westcountry Bricker James Pegrum I created this fun little build.
Early in the 22nd century, massive multi-ped cranes were designed which were capable of building generic pre-fab office buildings on greenfield prairies in a matter of hours. The resulting abundance of habitat for insurance and investment nerds, lawyers and accountants ushered in an age of economic prosperity.
Built for the Mechahub Civilian Mecha Contest.

1435 Pieces. A classic Renaissance style microscale mansion with many details: statues, a fountain, long stairs, a few bushes, a clock in the facade (Photoshop for the custom pattern), many chimneys, etc. Suggestions and feedbacks are welcome 👌.
I built a number of minifigure habitats before, and I experimented with a microscale Japanese habitat, that was recently featured on The Brothers Brick.
So here's a new addition to the series!

This is one of the 8 microscale creations that I presented during Leman Briqu'Expo 2019 in Switzerland.
A microscale recreation of the Hogwarts Quidditch Pitch for the Small category of the Microscale Magic contest on TBB. Behind it you can see the edge of the Forbidden Forest and in front of it is Hagrid pulling a cart as he is tending to the grounds.
The “Lawman” Lamplark is a variation of the I-10 for the police market; the weapons are non-lethal and there is room for personal weapons in the cockpit.

Just your common-or-garden Chicken-Walker.
16 Parts.
No tree-trunks or Ewoks in the immediate vicinity.
My final contribution to Brick Fanatics' 2018 advent calendar, and also my favorite of the ones I did. These were an interesting challenge, but I'm rather proud of the solution I created.

Through the creations that I build, I hope to inspire other young (or perhaps older) LEGO builders to unleash their inner creativity. We all need a positive way to express ourselves, so let's allow LEGO to be an extension of us. Your creativity belongs to you, and nobody can take that away. Build what you want to build, and how you want to build it.
