…doesn’t necessarily stay at NWBrickcon if you post pictures of it on the internets.
First up, I, Andrew “Dunechaser” Becraft used custom parts in a creation. I armed Jayne with an appropriate “Vera” (an M4) and handgun from BrickArms (*shock*):

Second, as shown in the photo above, Mike Rayhawk makes Wash somewhat move movie-accurate with a spear [...]

Instead of writing up the day’s events, I’ve spent the evening getting started organizing my NWBrickCon pictures. I split my pictures into creations and events. I haven’t finished adding titles, captions, and tags to everything, but if you see something you want to know about, post a comment on Flickr and I’ll add the missing [...]

First, the video:

Dave DeGobbi of Burnaby, B.C., Canada attended NWBrickCon 2006 over this past weekend, and stole the show (well, at least the steampunk section) with his Goliath airship:

Naturally, the Goliath won the Best Steampunk prize for the show! Inspired by my favorite movie of all time, Hayao Miyazaki’s Laputa: Castle in the Sky, the [...]

After a very early morning in order to get to the LEGO Store by 8:00 for breakfast, I’m fairly exhausted so this’ll be short.
First off, I’m an idiot, and so I forgot my camera on its charger. Josh took plenty of pictures, but he’s going to upload them when he gets home. In the meantime, [...]

Got up at 6:45 this morning so I could be sure and make it to the Bellevue LEGO Store by 8:00 for a special event for NWBrickCon attendees.
I think everybody ignored the food for the first hour, concentrating on unique Pick-a-Brick items, including build-your-own minifig bins. Any combination of five minifig parts (torso+head=1) was $1.99, [...]

I’m back home at the end of NWBrickCon day 1. I’ve uploaded about 75 pictures to a new NWBrickCon 2006 photoset on Flickr.
It was definitely a long day, but I had a fantastic time! As I admired the beginnings of the castle layout, Josh came over and introduced himself. Hey, remember, we had never [...]

With a lovely breakfast of doughnuts, I packed up my (surprisingly few) creations and I’m heading downtown for NWBrickcon:

Naturally, I’m wearing my new “I’m Blogging This” T-shirt from O’Reilly.
For the curious, here’s what my living room looks like after a couple weekends of building:

See you at the ‘con!

So, Jamie Neufeld is just awesome. Proof? His akira-inspired bikes should be proof enough:

Here’s the (sadly) only decent picture of legoswami’s Hammerhead. It is a ship from an anime called Cowboy Bebob. I haven’t seen the anime myself (to be honest, I haven’t seen any anime), but this is a nice piece of work regardless. Too bad the arm is unable to move.

It is modeled in a family [...]

It’s Godzilla week! Duane Hess shows that not only Moko can build giant, mutated, army-crushing reptilians:

One can, of course, argue that this is not my forte. I have to ask, then, if giant, mutated, army-crushing reptilians isn’t (science) fiction, then what is?
(Note: updates from me will be more regular from now on. I [...]

Jehkay is turning into quite the mecha builder. Two new mecha include a vertical tank and a microscale mecha.
Here’s the vertical tank:

And the tiny mecha:

It’s big, it’s spiky, and it’s scaly. Moko has been working on a very large model of Godzilla for sometime, and he recently announced that he completed it:
