I really don’t need to write anything about Moritz Nolting‘s (nolnet‘s) latest work. It’s adorable.

Pierce enemy lines with the Vector APC
Luis (TerremotoQuake) presents a sleek and deadly armored personnel carrier called the Vector. In addition to the ultra-smooth tiled exterior, the interior is just as immaculate. But purists beware, this APC seats non-LEGO army soldiers, seemingly chosen to show the smaller-than-minifig-scale of the creation.
Micro Macross Zero VF-0A/S with Ghost Booster
Stephen Chao (Obscurance) recently posted an awesome micro version of the VF-0 fighter from the Macross Zero prequel movie.

Behind the scenes at the Royal Applery
Where did medieval apple pies, apple sauce, and other appley treats come from? Philip Stark (Erdbeereis) has the answer:

The Black Falcons can see a very long way from their Watchtower
Eti’s Itty bitty 10193
Erik Smit (Eti) has created a lovely little microscale version of 10193 Medieval Market Village, complete with horse and cart, cows, and buildings that open and close.
Red mecha are nice.
Especially when they’re inspired by Warhammer 40K.
Mark Stafford and Flickr’s CBLA_Member have both built new creations based on Warhammer 40K, and both are Red.
CBLA has built a pirate mecha (right) to scale for minifigs, which makes excellent use of a Jack Stone skull piece for marking on the shoulder.
Mark has built a space marine (below) from the blood angels chapter to scale with a big Knight’s Kingdom head.
It’s more than a tree in the Ent
Zach’s Manticore
Zach has built a droid, called a manticore that’s so bizarre that I can’t look away. I always thought that a manticore was a lion with a human head and a scorpion’s tail. Instead, I’m looking at a droid that has two feet, and that’s where the similarity to anything in nature ends for me. That’s also why I like it, it’s so different from anything else out there. The technique using wing plates to make a curve is used here to great effect, and integrated quite well.
The Zipper’s Zu-Rama Elite gives me the heebie jeebies
BZPower member The Zipper recently posted this “hornet-like creature” that you probably wouldn’t meet in your great aunt’s garden — not that you’d want to!
The Zipper’s design also gives her creature a look akin to a Zerg Mutalisk — another nasty beast whose acquaintance you’d best avoid.
Thanks for the link, Joey!
The Prismatic Shadow
Alex Fojtik uses a rainbow of color accents on a black mecha frame to create one of the most unique mechas I’ve seen. He further added the chromatic stickers from the Mars Mission sets for a great effect.
