My entry to the Brickset.com 60 Years of the LEGO Brick competition is a microscale version of set 6973, the Deep Freeze Defender. Released in 1993, this was one of my first really big (for the time ) LEGO models. Between my brother and me, we ended up collecting the whole of the Ice Planet 2002 range, but this was my favourite.
My microscale version splits into four sections, just like the original. I've also included the mini speeder which was housed in the hangar in the rear module, and the satellite attached between the two cockpits. Unfortunately there was no way to house a rocket inside the central module at this scale, but I'm still pretty happy with the result!

I built this ship in Lego Digital Designer in a green color scheme.

Caravan ship no.20 it's one of the favourite spaceship's to long distance travel because their big inside.
A fairly basic, versatile mech. Invader has [active & passive] ladar mounted just below the cockpit, a dual-barreled laser cannon on the left arm, and a pair of claws on the right. All of the laser-based equipment is driven by a backpack-mounted system, which is powered by a pair of hot-swappable emission cores. Invader also carries a mech-scaled submachine gun for additional close-fire capabilities.
Built by a student in one of my microscale classes. This is the kind of photo quality I'm able to get with my simple studio and a point-and-shoot camera.
Of course, correctly Elizabeth Tower, but the "Big Ben" misnomer is so common (even LEGO use it in their set) I've gone along with it here.
Another new 6x6 stud microscale location. Entertainingly_lame is hosting #aquajune again this year and the challenge is a 10x10 stud build, so this is practice for that.

Heather did some really cool microscale stuff a while back. I wish she had done more as she was really good at it.

While superficially, Liberator is a relatively simple unit with a relatively simple shape, it employs a lot of curves and small details. To any micro-scale Lego scale artist, it means "it sucks".
This is a lot more complex than it looks. Also, Blizzard cheats, Concord cannon appears out of nowhere, and I can't replicate magic in a Lego microscale model *insert mad face*.
