Another year, another ship… and a new Digitally Assembled video? Why yes!!

I created 红海 (Hóng Hăi) using the AI tool Midjourney to produce an image to base the design off of.

I worked with my friend and incredible concept artist, Till Freitag, to explore Midjourney and challenge us to create two very unique looking spaceships inspired by Midjourney’s prompt.

For those unfamiliar, SHIPtember is an annual LEGO community challenge where a builder must create a spaceship 100+ studs long on the longest axis within 1 months’ time. This is my third SHIPtember. This year was special with the inclusion of Midjourney and collabing with Till. The ship took roughly 62 hrs and was made in Bricklink Studio, Cinema 4D with Arnold, and Photoshop using my Puget Systems machine. Till’s art used Blender and Photoshop.(you can find his version on his and my Instagram page)

Here are my thoughts on my design’s fictional bio:

红海 (Hóng Hăi) is a Chinese deep space radiation research ship launched in the year 3090. It was made by the 太空海军研究会 (The Space Naval Research Society) in 3087 and reached Saturn on May 21st 3090. Its primary mission was to research a strange phenomenon of new unknown forms of radiation occurring near Saturn.

The ship is equipped with a large laser array to study the phenomenon and radiation levels up close. The main “sail” carries billions of sensors to detect various forms of radiation. It hosts a crew of 7 who are well shielded inside the spacecraft when not inside the large rear observation deck. The ship is 632.5 ft tall (192.79 meters). 7 years into its mission findings discovered the unique radiation was caused by The Shell, an alien inter-dimensional artifact discovered by German astronauts in 3093 near Neptune. The purpose of The Shell is yet to be determined but the radiation left in its wake was found to cause disruptions in the fabric of reality wherever it resided. Hóng Hăi’s taikonauts have been recognized for their findings upon return to earth.

The Lego model is 114 studs long (35.8in), 138 studs high (43. 6in), and 87 studs wide (27.3in) and has 7732 pieces.

Space: Chase for the Brick - I decided to enter the LEGO Ideas contest: "You're the Final Piece" where contestants are to create a picture/art with Lego in 4 categories. I chose space. It was an opportunity for me to try some more techniques in Cinema 4D, Octane, and use the powerful asset engine, Quixel Bridge. This was completed using Bricklink Studio, Mecabricks, Cinema 4D, Greyscale Gorilla Lightkit Pro 3, Octane, Quixel Bridge, and Adobe Photoshop all done on a Puget machine. I hope you like it and I hope it does well in the contest. Go on over to Lego Ideas to check it out!

[Sound on] I finished my build for this month’s RLUG (Sacramento Brick Builders) challenge: Create a bouquet or skyscraper. So I made an animation of the Soilent Green flower shop. I hear the flower arrangements are quite edible… just not so many returning customers for some reason…

This was lots of fun to do and animate. I designed everything in Bricklink Studio and textured and animated using Cinema 4D with Octane and Greyscalegorilla Light Kit Pro 3. I finished the video in After Effects with my own vocal sound effects and a song by DapperChapMusic, composed by Michael Collings. All of this was possible because of the awesome computer from Puget Systems.

Hope you like it. “Soilent Green is LEGO minifigures!!!”

[Sound on] I finished my build for this month’s RLUG (Sacramento Brick Builders) challenge: Create a bouquet or skyscraper. So I made an animation of the Soilent Green flower shop. I hear the flower arrangements are quite edible… just not so many returning customers for some reason…

This was lots of fun to do and animate. I designed everything in Bricklink Studio and textured and animated using Cinema 4D with Octane and Greyscalegorilla Light Kit Pro 3. I finished the video in After Effects with my own vocal sound effects and a song by DapperChapMusic, composed by Michael Collings. All of this was possible because of the awesome computer from Puget Systems.

Hope you like it. “Soilent Green is LEGO minifigures!!!”
