KunstHausWhat?!!!!

The ever excellent Esben Kolind of Danish LUG, Byggepladen (baseplate for a random fact of the day) presents an amazing brick rendition of Hundertwasser‘s KunstHausWien in Vienna, Austria. The building techniques used on this model really bring the complex shapes of the original to life and it seems that no detail is left ignored.

Ant

A very small insect, megasized by Jerac:

Take a closer look, if you’re not an insectophobe, and note the lovely antennae and the construction techniques Jerac used on the feet. Very nice.

Sir Nadroj’s Fabuland lolrus has a bukkit

Sir Nadroj has recently gotten into Fabuland, a range of LEGO sets from the late 1970’s through the 1980’s.

His latest creation includes a walrus, a beloved blue bucket, and, well, that’s all that really matters in life, isn’t it?

There’s a video showing how the boat rocks back and forth:

A lovely tractor driven by a pig:

Have we mentioned the overwhelming air superiority of Ralph Savelsberg?

I think it’s come up a couple times.

Ralph Savelsberg continues to amaze the world not just with the quality of his creations but the sheer quantity. The kicker is obvious from the picture above. He keeps many of them built!

His latest aircraft include an AH-1W SuperCobra and F-5E Tiger:

US Navy Sea King and HH-1N helicopters:

But my favorite is his most recent (and smallest) — a Predator UAV:
