McBricker takes us on a journey into the hills of Crete, where this lovely little chapel nestles against the side of a cliff.
The tree, the goats, the sky, and the old nun walking with a cane all add depth to this scene.
Arthur Gugick recently reposted some of his pics onto Flickr and I was reminded of this rendition of one the most famous cathedrals in the world. It is simply glorious. The texturing of the walls, by turning the bottoms of the plates outward, is inspired. Words fail me. This was incredible when it was first built and it still is. We never blogged it then, we are now.
You can see the original gallery here.
L. G. Orlando has built a rather ornate little Victorian house. I’m loving the details on this.
Hippotam takes on the evil amphibian menace with his forest wizard and out-of-control, whirly flames!
Juho William serves up this surreal creation. Everything seems to come together perfectly to create a creepy sense of wonder. I’m fascinated and can’t stop looking at it.
This little craft, by Fredoichi, caught me off guard. I didn’t realize it was microscale until I’d clicked on it. Nice job, very nice job.
We’ve gotten enough suggestions for things we’ve already blogged (check out Page 2, people!) that I thought we should do a quick roundup of this week’s news items.
BrickCon 2009. Only a few days left to pre-register for BrickCon and guarantee all your goodies. We’re organizing Zombie Apocafest 2009, with other collaborative displays like Operation Bricklord and Battle Bugs.
Blogged! Inspired by The Living Brick, we’ve started a Blogged by The Brothers Brick group on Flickr, where you can add your photo if it’s been blogged and peruse lots of the great LEGO creations we’ve highlighted.
Thanks to mumu over at かわいいレゴずき for the idea! Let us know if this is a good idea for us to do as well, and we can make it a weekly feature.
It’s been only less than two weeks since the release of 10197 Fire Brigade, but Alex Eylar (Profound Whatever) has already microscaled it. I won’t ask how many of his Flickr contacts thought it was the actual set from the thumbnail pictures.
LEGO seems a perfect medium to build scenes from the 1982 movie Tron. These light cycles by Stefan (2×4) look like they’re going a million miles an hour.
If you’d like to build your own LEGO light cycle, Stefan has also posted instructions.
Legoadam has made great use of dish and arch pieces to construct this simple but delightful microscale mosque. I’m sure the sharif would like it.
