This is the second time this weekend that we’ve shown flowers leading to deadly consesequences. Look at what Megan Rothrock has created – an overly abundant pink diorama with an insect decapitating a poor space explorer who picked the wrong flower. Lesson learned, don’t pick flowers.
I don’t think I’ve ever seen a mech with pink highlights and a crotch cannon, but I guess one exists. Check out Alex Fojtik‘s Satyr Class Biped, aka “Bubblegum.” Note the clever usage of the pink fence piece on the missile packs.
My latest space creation goes small for SCI-LUG‘s recently ended Small Starfighter contest. Like several of the entrants, I’ve come up with a transforming design that capitalizes on the symmetrical quality of the bubble cockpit to include the third form of an atmospheric flight configuration.
What astonds me the most is the explosive magnitude of the participation in this contest that drew 84 entries. See for yourself in these three pages of well-done creations.
There also a Racoon, a squirrel, and a wolf. This scene by SlyOwl is packed with fuzzy critters…
In typical SlyOwl fashion, its also loaded with lots of other fun details too. The roof of that cabin and the grass overhangs on the clifftop are nice touches. But, of course, that is what we’ve come to expect from this talented builder!
…defending ur spacestations.
Ben Jarvis constructed an oddly shaped fighter for SCI-LUG‘s Small Starfighter contest. The ship flies in vertical position, propelled by space turbines. What a crazily cool concept!
Jeramy Cooke (icecoldmilk) recently finished a diorama intended for a certain contest a year ago :). It depicts a lone survivor guarding the last flower on Earth from an invading Black Fantasy creature. I love the dynamic chaos of the landscape and its contrast with a clean black and white tiled interior. Check through each photo in the gallery for notes from the builder on interesting details that you don’t want to miss.
Jarek‘s awesome space pirate battleship features a unique blend of purple and black, resulting in a most spectacular build. As a rare and out-of-production color, purple is a sought-after color for its effective color accenting against neutral tones such as black and gray.
Steven Walker figured out what to do with all those extra battle droid arms that were laying around. Build a bike! I’ve never seen anything quite like this…definitely an eye-catcher!
David Luna has outfitted his medics with a jeep modified to carry stretchers. I hadn’t ever seen one of these before, they really did exist!
He’s done an excellent job on this recreation. I’m really liking how he used the all-purpose BrickArms monopods on the stretcher racks.
Here is another picture, with stretchers in place:
Fedde has gone airborne with this magnetically-powered Maserati Airturismo. Smooth lines, open cockpit, and my son’s favorite color…what more could you want?
There’s been a barrel-full of quality Steampunk creations lately. Many are entries in the Agents of the Imperial Crown contest, but some aren’t. It doesn’t matter, they are all awesome!
