I looked at it, so now you have to. Guy Himber has done it again and I don’t know whether to laugh, cry or run away. I do know one thing. It’s disturbing on a deeper level because someone just saw this over my shoulder and swore at my screen. So it must be good, Continue reading →
No, it’s not a new metal band, it’s the name of this clever use of LEGO by Rod Gillies (2 Much Caffeine). I assumed that it was a skeleton, but it’s apparently biomechanical. Regardless of whether it’s intended to be alieve or dead, or something in-between, I really enjoy the creation. Rod has made great Continue reading →
Littlehaulic once again shows her creativity for interior design with Lego in this kitchen and dining room creation. There are many details that’ll reward those who take a closer look. Can you find the blender, power outlets, and the hidden foodling in the pictures?
I’ll bet this creation by Neverroads isn’t something you see everyday. Here’s the setup.
Nearly everything we feature here on The Brothers Brick is fairly complex, and though I would argue that much of it is also artistic, there’s a whole class of photographers who incorporate LEGO into their art in ways that many of us “hardcore” builders overlook. But sometimes, simplicity can be just as pleasing as an Continue reading →
When we choose to blog a creation, we look for the quality of the build, the clarity of the photography, and how well the creation appeals to our personal tastes. While there’s still much subjectivity in these parameters, we hope that this example will elucidate what we consider to be a blogworthy MOC. • Color: Continue reading →
My latest work is not something I typically build. It’s my first forced perspective build, my first imitation of a 2D image, and also my first time building a MOC for a single photo. You can see the original painting and its meaning on Flickr.
Alex Schranz uses transparent colors to create a 3D graffiti display of his signature “PAX.” He uses a black light to give the pieces a fluorescent glow, resembling something from another dimension.
As evidenced by this sculpture by Lukáš Šógor.
Todd Wilder built an ornate box that’s also a puzzle, requiring its six compartments to be opened in order. Check out the gallery that shows sequential photos of this complicated but fun process. UPDATE: Todd has uploaded a gallery showing the question mark tessellation. Thanks for the tip Pepa Quin!
A picture is worth a thousand words, so I’ll let this one by Shobrick speak for itself. Thanks for the tip ~Tac~
My latest creation is a picture puzzle called Ravel. You are a postman trying to escape from a bizarre world in which you have no idea how you got there. Click on the picture for the riddle on how to solve the puzzle. It’s inspired by a childrens book called It’s for You and the Continue reading →
Time’s running out to enter the Colossal Contest over at Classic-Castle! There are some fabulous entries this year, and it’s been a blast to watch them come through. I do not envy the judges. Zack Milenius’s entry is all about relativity. Or, more specifically, Relativity. I like the castle-twist to a classic art piece. It’s Continue reading →
It’s amazing what can be done with cheese slopes, and Katie Walker knows that better than most of us when it comes to creating designs and patterns. Her latest Christmas window is simply a delight, just in time for the holidays.
Mark Kelso is also a painter, who was recently commissioned to produce a still life for a gallery. Naturally, he turned to his other hobby for inspiration, yes, Lego that is. For once, we can definitively place this post in the art category :)
