Bovine Valentine’s

Flickr user crises_crs portrays the new Collectible Minifig Series 6 Minotaur trying to put the mooves on a heifer in this beefed up vignette.

Temple of Jugatinus

James Pegrum’s (peggyjdb) vignette caught my eye with its slanted rocks and angled placement of the temple, making it look more refined and realistic.

The Scope of War

Over the last few weeks, Sean and Steph Mayo (aka Siercon and Coral) have been creating a strikingly skillful set of microscale dioramas for the Microscale Castle Contest at Classic-Castle, with each vignette depicting a scene from an epic struggle for a fantasy world. All eight of the individual scenes fit together, adjoining to create Continue reading →

The spice must flow

As much as I prefer Frank Herbert’s original novels, David Lynch created a unique vision of the Dune universe that was all his own. Stefan Käsmayer (-2×4-) has recently recreated bits of Lynch’s version in LEGO, beginning with the Harkonnen ornithopter (via The Living Brick): He followed this with a little scene depicting Paul Atreides Continue reading →

Release the Lego Kraken!

Lego.Skrytsson‘s depiction of the Kraken does it great justice. The teeth is just wow.

Alien accents

Many companies in the US have call centers located in other countries. For Théolego, he imagines them being on other planets.

Even DragonSlayers have to start somewhere

This Dragon Slayer training vignette, by Steve, is hysterical. It was definitely an unexpected use of the Lizard Man collectible fig. If I lived in medieval times, it would be just my luck to be the peasant in the dragon costume.

Microscale tornado rips up tiny houses

Blake Baer‘s microscale tornado vignette caught my attention at BrickFair. It’s a unique concept carried out effectively with the simple technique of stacking layers of SNOT’d bricks. I also love the use of books as the roofs on the houses.

Tanning on the Death Star

Who says that working for the Empire is a drag? Apparently not Ernesto Carrillo.

Elementary.

I love well-crafted interior and I have been a Sherlockian since I first read the stories as a kid So this scene by Peter Reid grabbed me in a big way. The use of sand-red for the walls was an excellent choice and the room simply oozes Victorian charm. I haven’t gotten one of the Continue reading →

Air mattress surfing

That’s something you don’t see everyday, especially in Lego. By Klementina Kos

Welcome to Rapture

Imagine Rigney displayed this Bioshock creation at Brickworld last weekend. This multi-story vignette features scenes from Bioshock from the ravaged rooms of Rapture to the cold depths of the ocean floor. There’s much more behind the walls and windows of the building you see. Check out all the details on Flickr.

The Battle of San Juan Hill

Brian Williams (BMW_Indy) yet again shows his expert vignette craftsmanship in his build of the Battle of San Juan Hill. Everything from the custom-built horse, the explosion, the grass field, the sloped hill, and the display base separate this creation from the ordinary.

How to paint an artist.

Ah, the life of an artist. Glamorous, with paintings selling for millions upon millions, right? Eh, probably not. Unless you’re Picasso, this poor minifig probably won’t see his works reach seven digits in his lifetime. But that’s glamorous, right? All he wants to do is pay for his fantastic flat, that he just cleaned. But Continue reading →

Frankenstein, a vignette

Mr. Xenomurphy‘s Frankenstein vignette depicts the perfect setting for the scene when Victor Frankenstein brings his creation to life. Check out the gallery on MOCpages for more pictures that show other great details such as the cracked floor.
