Had a bit of fun with the mosaic work with this one. The mosaic on the outside is based on John S. old work, the mosaic on the inside is something I came up with when I decided to do an interior (for once). Made this for GoH and also as a part of an upcoming entry to summer joust (middle eastern category). Hope you guys enjoy it!
Got the exterior to the front entrance of the mansion near complete. So far so good. My client is happy so I am happy :D

A quick roof tutorial.
tried a new technique this week, you might have seen it before and wondered how it's done. Looks incredibly advanced on the putside right? Well let me show you one simple trick :D
ID Help: Is this an Ash-throated Flycatcher or Brown-crested Flycatcher or something else? Observed during light rain in the desert next to the Superstition Mountains. The first photograph shows the bird darting from tree to tree ahead of me, making it difficult to capture a clear shot. In the second photograph, the bird flew to a cholla cactus, seemingly attempting to conceal itself by extending its wings in an unusual manner. It remained in that position until I approached, at which point the bird's hiding technique was ineffective. The bird's positioning made it challenging to determine if it was upside down or upright, resembling a bat. Has anyone observed this behavior before?
Further to the previous installment…
When packing models, it good to pack similar models together. In the unlikely event that parts do break off in transit, parts will often be interchangeable making the models much easier to reassemble. One of our club members demonstrates this technique here using his S-class diesel and steam locomotives.
This is one of many ways to make a nifty round shape fit into a brick-built hull. Go crazy and view it large.
Here´s a small MOC I made for my LUG´s "9 Kingdoms" RPG on www.roguebricks.de
Due to the fact that I wanted to test that tree technique I decided to build that creation. The minifigure on the left is the SigFig from my friend Ben Tritschler ( www.flickr.com/photos/133949954@N02 ) . Kurvenheim is the name of his kingdom in the RPG.
I hope you like it :)
I'm working on a couple of builds that I'm not getting far with... I thought I'd chuck some stuff together in this pic for fun.
A studs-on-top technique for building 45-degree wall corners with no gaps and without using hinges or floating walls. The wall is completely interlocked and solid, with no gaps at the seams or on the top surface.
I think I like the contrast between the pin sharp dress with every detail in the front and the unfocused back
What do you think ?
(this is a real flickr-question ... we are talking about photo-technique ...)
Got inspired by GolPlaysWithLego to try some more ways to attach the Throwbot Visor.
Just two box wrenches and two wheels. Tried to attach the wrenches to binoculars but it stresses the visor and the wrenches + it’s unnecessary. The wrenches are actually trapped by each other here, and it holds together nicely.
A look at how I assembled the roof of this pagoda. You could potentially strengthen it with another layer of rounded 1x2 plates, but that might just make fixing it more annoying.

Here's how I built the wall in my last moc- it's pretty simple, basically just a bunch of jumper plates connected in a repeating pattern.
Sorry about the terrible picture :P

Just little techniques I’m WIP’n up for my new diesel - it’s in blue for this example, because I don’t have the parts for dark green :/

I saw this egret fishing technique like a live show in display. It used the left or right foot to stir the water under almost like swirling and then pounce precisely to fetch the fish. It’s like a martial artist applies jabbing technique before delivering the powerful punch.

Today, it’s a MOC I made for a contest of my RLUG (Briques-Mulsanne : www.facebook.com/briquemulsanne).
The theme was "Nurse" on a sixteen by sixteen plate ... I had Harley quinn in mind and so there you go! A scene in arkham asylum at the medical center!
This MOC was a pretext to experiment new building techniques for my real Asylum!
This time, I don't have any files or instructions to build it. I hope you enjoy this MOCs and the video ! Let me know in comment what you think about, if you want more information about or if you have advice !
Stay tuned for the next episode of Building the Arkham Asylum !

Wall Techniques Tutorial :
An alternative method can be used to create thinner ribs of only 1 plate thickness which can be located within the structure of the van in the same way. I didn't use this technique because the panels would have been too small and the van would have ended up too short as a consequence. The parts coloured red are PN:11211 and PN:30414.
I was playing around with the shell extensions, and came upon this. There's enough room to fit various Technic connectors through the gap.
Xylography or engraving is the etching technique in which wood is used as a template and allows the playback of the recorded image on paper or other suitable support. It is a very similar process with a stamp.

I don't often post instructions or techniques but though I would just put this out here. Not that great at editing it all together but some might find it interesting. It's the cockpit area from my most recent starfighter - Toxic V1. I built it from memory in LDD, so hopefully its OK. Probably should have chosen a different angle/more colored details for some of the harder to figure out areas. Feel free to recommend improvements or change any part of this to suit your needs. 74 pieces as is.
The new armor piece (left) fits nicely with many types of blades from the old sets.
The masks (right) can circle around the new 6 loader. I wanted to make a motorcycle but don't have enough masks.
It took me 75 minutes for that approximately 3 km or 5 miles walk and during which I shot 180 photos and uploaded 70 for that set. I spot, shot as I walked. And for that I made 2.4 shots per minute or only 25 seconds per shot. If only the shot I uploaded are considered it is almost a minute a shot. This walk is an example of my brand of photography – quick shooting. I won’t advocate it for anybody and I’m sure there will be some who will cringe in horror at what I do. I just want to come clean on what I find to be tremendously useful in my travel. Another example of my quick shot technique is my Gunung Irau Climb set where I shot with one hand as I climbed in rainy weather. The other photographers (and most are much better than me) hardly got any action shots of the exhausting climb and for every shot they made, I’ll be making ten at least. If you take too long to line up a shot, you'll be lost in the tropical jungle! Or hold up the entire line inconveniencing others. Just want to share with all my friends my way of taking photos. See the previous photo for examples of my 1 second shot.
When building the APC from the movie Aliens, I had to come up with a way to make a sliding door that didn't add too much of a "mechanism" stealing space from the interior. During the whole project I was focusing on movie accurate functionality inside small spaces.
This sliding door is really effective with just a few pieces. The base for the idea is that the thin wall element matches the thin plate of the part holding the door. That makes the door slide sturdy with some friction tight against the wall. The little handle inside to the left keeps the door in place when fully closed. In this example there where not much extra space for anything. I can see how this technique could be developed further for different purposes. Color was an issue as well. For example I'd love to have a 1x1 corner wall element in dark stone, but without it I used the end slope as a stop for the door making the opening slightly narrower than 4 studs which I think helps keeping the sence of minifig scale.
instagram is full of #mosaicsonmonday, beautiful mathematical, artistic works by lego builders. my latest build contains a mosaic, using a fabric weave technique i designed last november, but never finished. went back to it this year. this weave i used is based on santa's official tartan, created for members of the ‘clan claus society’ (ccs), registered at the scottish register of tartans.
it's not beautiful but it is mathematical and though parts intensive, was fun to recreate then incorporate into the build for #BuildToGive...
