This sand-packed beach jalopy is far out. Paul Hetherington based it on the cover of the Beach Boys first album, Surfin’ Safari, and he nailed it. While this is a slighty older creation, it is a lovely job and in Miniland scale too!
Ed Diment (Lego Monster) brings us an aircraft of a more terrestrial variety in his Red Bull Air Racer. The larger 1:22 scale allows some nice extra details and a smoother profile.
Patrick (Jason son) has given us an excellent rendition of Mad Max’s car. I’m not certain of how common this car ever was as a police interceptor in Australia, but I like to think that they’re running around all over the place. Remember, two men enter, one man leaves.
As we’ve held off blogging for the last week to celebrate the late nnenn’s work I’m sure we all have a backlog of stuff to post. So please excuse the high density of cool LEGO models on your screen. Dave Shaddix’s March Out Of The Darkness may be a work-in-progress but this photo is certainly Continue reading →
One of the cool things about the LEGO hobby is that it brings together people from various backgrounds and professions. Tommy Williamson (GeekyTom) works for CafeFX as an effects artist, and supervised the 3D-ification of Alice in Wonderland. Naturally, Tommy built some of the characters from the movie to commemorate its release: Johnny Depp makes Continue reading →
Arkov continues his series of Orange Box LEGO creations with Dog from Half-Life 2: Why yes, it is Miniland scale.
Paul Lee and his son entered their local LEGO Store’s monthly Minibuild contest back in September, and recently learned that their entry has just won the national contest, and will be featured as this coming September’s monthly model. It’s a great little Miniland character that would look perfect on the tiny streets of LEGOLAND California, Continue reading →
This miniland pianist tickles the ivories and my heart. That piano is gorgeous. Tiago Catarino composed a nice one here.
Marcos Bessa‘s game is spot on with his mini-land scale pool table. Each and every detail is exquisite–from the table itself to the rack for the pool sticks. Check out the rest of the gallery for more photos!
Lino Martins wishes everyone a very happy holidays, as Santa and Natasha make a second appearance next to this sweet 1966 Ford Galaxie, part of this month’s LUGNuts challenge, A Galaxie of Possibilities. Click the pic to read Lino’s full write-up.
Alex Eylar has really outdone himself with his Cup and Ball Automaton. While the build itself is amazing, and has this wicked sense of macabre, the icing is the fact that it moves…
Since I wasn’t around when the mid-80′s cartoon Rainbow Brite debuted, I’ll assume the ignorant blogger in writing this post. For those who are old enough to have watched the show back in the day, these figures by Dave Sterling should evoke a pleasant trip down memory lane, one which you can relive over and Continue reading →
I just heard that they’re recruiting for a model builder for the new LEGOLAND Discovery Center in Manchester, UK. It could be a pretty cool opportunity for someone among our UK readership. Here’s the word: DO YOU HAVE THE BRICK FACTOR? SEE YOUR MODELS IMMORTALISED FOREVER IN LEGO OPEN auditions are being held at The Continue reading →
Atomic Pop is my favorite toy/comic book store in Baltimore, and Atomic Punk is now my favorite hot rod. Nathan Proudlove (Proudlove) did a great job rendering this car in LEGO form. Ok, so perhaps I’m a sucker for anything with a bubble dome, sue me.
Tommy Williamson (GeekyTom) recreates the complete set for Stephen Colbert’s The Colbert Report in Miniland scale, complete with trophies and bookshelves. Check out all the photos on MOCpages and Flickr. Nation, watch for Tommy at BrickCon in his Stud shirt.
