Josh featured LEGO creations by Florian (demdike) twice while I was away, and I’m so glad to learn of this builder who I hadn’t encountered before!
Florian’s latest creation is a “picture from the Ganymede mission in 2026″:

Monkfish44 is training insectoid, bug-eyed creatures in the way of the ninja. Doesn’t seem to wise, if you ask me. Those things have a way of turning on you.
Nnenn reminds us with his newest creation that he is still the master of Sky-Fi. What I particularly like about this creation is the enchanting picture below, where the creation is merged with a perfect background.
Angus MacLane has created an awesome little ship for some awesome little warriors. Named after Thor’s Hammer, Mjolnir has room for one diminutive pilot, but is packed with all the proper facilities. I can’t wait for the bearded invaders to reach our galaxy!
Thanks to Bruce for pointing it out.
Rocks: check, base: check, launchpad: check, compact design: check, fun colours: check. After admiring his recent (and tiny) Fireball I asked Peter Morris to do me the honour of building something for my Dogfighters 2137 theme and he’s more than lived up to my expectations with the bDY-210 Drahken and its base.
As an added bonus [...]
Yup, that’s me. My latest distraction is this little beauty from Vdude, with cargo modules in a variety of colors:
For more salient commentary on the finer points of this LEGO creation, you may prefer to reference Yahtzee Spittoon Assignation Blowfish.
James Wadsworth, host of LAML Radio, has audaciously reached the most mysterious builder on the internet - Nnenn. As a highly prolific space artist, Nnenn has astounded LEGO fans with his polished and stylized spacecrafts. As a person he remained nameless and faceless online. Now LAML Radio has a detailed and comprehensive podcast interview with [...]
Whence and what art thou, execrable shape?
“It’s just a robot by Peter Reid. Sheesh!” So spake the Fiend, and with necessity, The tyrant’s plea, excused his devilish deeds.
Recent Flickr inductee H.G. Manifold’s first microscale space ship has lovely stripes. The offset bridge also contrasts nicely with the rest of the ship:

Update: Zombie Apocafest 2008 went off smashingly at BrickCon 2008. Don’t miss our full coverage here on The Brothers Brick:
The pre-registration price for BrickCon 2008 goes up from $40 to $50 next Tuesday, August 5th. If you’re still thinking about joining Nannan, Josh, Keith, me, and lots of other Brothers Brick readers in Seattle this [...]
Allister McLaren (CaptainUnderpants) has been slowly building up a series of large and awesome LEGO action figures which somewhat evoke Danger Mouse to me. Henchbot (the big guy) is his latest but do check out Doc Grok (also pictured) and Sgt. Destroy.
Peter Morris has a constantly growing squadron of starfighters each of which is a superb piece of design. His delightfully compact latest tx100aFireball09 is my new favourite, not least because he’s designed it in the hard-to-use dark green. The ground crew is a lovely touch.
I’m a huge fan of Charles Stross’ books and short stories and am particularly fond of the anachronistic starship in Singularity Sky. Something about the combination of brass speaking tubes and faster-than-light drives just tickles me in all the right places. This is my attempt to do some vague amount of justice to the bridge [...]
Brickshelf user vana treats us to an amazingly designed and photographed UCS scale Terran battlecuiser from the game StarCraft. The traditional greebles on studs technique prevails once again, making the model extra detailed.
Andrew Lee takes his inspiration from an old BattleTech novel’s cover for his latest mecha. I love Andrew’s use of the LEGO Agents stickers:
Since we’re rifling through Andrew’s photos looking for stuff to blog, here’s a bonus microspace warship, Yen-lo-wang — one “bad mother”:
To be perfectly honest, I’ve enjoyed the design aesthetic of the new Battlestar Galactica more lately than the story lines. Oh well. So when Bram Lambrecht combined the Cylon Raider with little plastic bricks from Denmark in 3vil livery, I was rather pleased:
Via Young Spacers.
Nnenn’s latest work is highly original, featuring a string of five engines strapped to a glider. Check out this whimsical racer called the The Balkeesa.
Brendan Mauro puts a new twist to the LEGO troll figure, making it a cyber-troll with robot arm, eyepiece, and a sharp mechanical hand - all the better to crush those “stoopid space mans.”
