The Brothers Brick

Skipping the phrase that comes afterwards, we bring you to Dirk VH’s brick-built Kenny from South Park, complete with axe in head and the resulting gore effects.

As part of the National Train Show on July 10-12, 2009 in Hartford, CT, Jamie Berard, set designer of the newly released ‘Emerald Night’ and employee of The LEGO Group (TLG), will participate as part of the show. Jamie will be giving a talk on both July 10 and 11 (Fri. and Sat.) about the [...]

Danny Rice (Big X) has built one of the adorable playable characters from the Xbox Live Arcade game Castle Crashers. The eyes on Danny’s Red Knight are excellent.

Thank you Alex Schranz (Orion Pax). Superb LEGO walkman, tape and headphone set.

As a Wii owner, I’ve been feeling a little bit abandoned lately — no, Nintendo, I don’t want to play yet another incarnation of Wii Sports. And Wii Fit?! Are you kidding me?
These LEGO Pikmin creations by Filip Felberg (also on Flickr) made me smile, though, thinking back to those happy weeks in the summer [...]

This rusty grenade by Victor Vitale is da bomb. No, really, it is! The color scheme really works well and using a keychain ring is very clever. My question is whether a rusty grenade more or less safe than a new shiny one?

Ryan Wood proposed via this giant LEGO ring. Pretty cool idea, if you ask me. This happened back in 2006, but Ryan just posted new and improved pics.

His lovely wife, Katie, built this cool mosaic of their wedding.

She displayed it at BrickCon 2007, but I don’t think we ever blogged it. [...]

Billy McGill just built a giant version of the LEGO monkey for his niece. I’ve always liked this monkey…now why didn’t I ever think of doing this?

Dirk displays his prowess with sculpture yet again. His Luigi is adorable!

With Josie sitting next to me while I eat cheese puffs, I would probably be licked into submission if I didn’t blog Joel Baker’s adorable pair of dachshunds — one real, one LEGO.

Via The Living Brick.

Sean Kenney’s recent creation is a 5.5 feet microscale rendition of the John Hancock Center in Chicago, featuring nearly 13,000 pieces. The model has also been glued, which must have contributed to a good portion of the 80 hours Sean spent working on the entire project. Check out the gallery for detail shots including the [...]

After seeing an earlier work in progress, I’ve been eagerly anticipating this lovely steampunk sculpture by Guy Himber (V&A Steamworks).

The expression on the moon’s face is priceless.
Guy’s HMS Brown Widow, aka “The Flying Rivet” displays his usual attention to detail, with sections of LEGO tubing as rivets on the trailing edge of the wings.

Dirk has created some really lovely sculptures of the Moai of Rapa Nui (aka Easter Island). Like many people, I’ve always been very intrigued by these giant statues. The Lego renditions made me smile.

This burning skull by Billy McGill is quite striking! I’ve seen a lot of interesting shapes made out of the flame pieces, but this is something special.

Angus MacLane has created an incredibly accurate LEGO version of one of the main characters from Pixar’s latest feature film, “Up“. From the bulbous nose and jutting jaw, to his green-footed cane and bowtie, this is perfect! Of course, what else do we expect from Angus?

For more about Angus and Pixar check out [...]

Matija Grguric worked for almost a year and a half to make a minifig scale model of the Art Pavilion in Zagreb, Croatia. This massive creation measure around 150 cm long, 85 cm wide and 90 cm high. The display renders the intricate details of the original structure, and the crafting of the roof is [...]

Dirk has recreated one of the most famous sculptures of Ancient Greece, the Venus De Milo.

This replica is half-size, but Dirk says that he would like to build a full-scale version some day.

Joris Blok gets all nostalgic with his latest creation, a replica of the famous Wico Red Ball controller for the Amiga.

He also posted a 20th anniversary tribute to Nintendo’s GameBoy…
