The Brothers Brick

Iain Heath (Ochre Jelly) brings us a lovely tribute to Queen on the 20th anniversary of Freddie Mercury’s death. The poise and action in this model are incredible.

I know we blog a lot of aurore&aube‘s dinosaurs. But that’s because they’re so good and so well photographed. Enjoy carnotaurus.

Cole Bl♠q routinely challenges the conceptions of how we use the Lego medium. Continuing his on-going theme of spray cans is his latest sculpture, a viscerally organic interpretation. It is striking and beautiful, in a way not often seen in Lego. It’s not purist–that is, the effect is not achieved with 100% unmodified Lego pieces–but Continue reading →

Brickshelf user tkh has some brilliant manga/hobby characters in his galleries. His latest, one Melissa Seraphy, is particularly amazing.

Lino Martins (Lino M) claims this Yo-Yo is 100% LEGO and who are we to argue? I’m also wondering if this model doesn’t have the fewest pieces of any we’ve blogged here. And to let you all in on a personal shame: if you give me a yo-yo I will be ‘that annoying yo-yo guy’ Continue reading →

Jose Fernandez (aka Lego-man-at-arms) has fabricated a fantastic Lego version of that ubiquitously cute cat, Hello Kitty. The semblance is spot-on, and Jose has made great use of the limited palette of pink pieces.

I don’t know what the Get Robo company does, but I know I like this sculpture if their mascot by Ewok in Disguise. The robot is cute, and incorporates some intersting building techniques in the torso. Frankly, I think it’s better looking than the source image he based it on.

…could stop Bruce Lowell from building this awesome mailbox. I never thought I would say that a box had beautiful lines and curves but this one does.

I had to do a double-take with this one. The thumbnail looked like it was just a lovely presentation of a small-ish lantern. But it was lovely, so I looked, and realized I was actually looking at a LEGO creation. Luke Watkins said this was a random creation that took very little time, but I Continue reading →

Ah, such fond memories. Playin’ pool, with the crack of the balls, the silent concentration with the angles, and the furious cursing when the ball doesn’t go were you wanted or intended. The howling frustration when you lose and your buddy gloats about their win. Anyway, I digress. Bruce Lowell‘s posted fifteen fabulously colored and Continue reading →

Mike Doyle finished his third masterpiece titled Victorian on Mud Heap, depicting yet another decaying Victorian house in a gigantic 5.5′ x 6′ x 3′ creation made entirely out of Lego. There are several ways to enjoy this work such as viewing the detail pictures on MOCpages, reading the builder’s interpretation of his work on Continue reading →

Barney Main (SlyOwl) contributes to an IronBuilder challenge by incorporating more than a dozen yellow road signs (the “seed part”) into his latest model. The cartoonish face is complemented by a TV screen frame, while a background cactus adds depth to the scene.

I bet you thought that Cole Blaq built this, huh? He didn’t…which means the trend is spreading. That’s fine by me as long as the bricks turn out as cool as this one. Ken Robichaud is the actual builder of this creepy coffin brick.

Matt Armstrong crosses another great build off his list with this typewriter.

Cole Blaq continues his series on the brick with this piece showing us the inner working of our favorite iconic construction toy. I will never look at my pile of brick in the same way now.
