This pair of hard-bitten space warriors are sporting hard-suits common to their species. √erde’ has this long backstory about how the wolves are all mean and everything. Don’t you believe it. That bird looks like it deserves everything it gets.

Ozelot by Cole
I love the angles, lines and exposed frame on this beauty. The olive green is a good color choice as well. I don’t know if it based on the British Ocelot or not, as there are similarities and differences and Cole doesn’t say in his description. Regardless, Cole Blaq has created a killer off-road monster here.
S.A.D.I.S.T.
Well, Karf has done it again. He’s built something really weird that I can’t help but post here. I’m weak.
This charming, little bot is in need of love and hugs. At least that is what he wants you to think. I do want to point out that the tan highlights really make this creepy thing stand out…that and all the saws. Karf says that S.A.D.I.S.T. stands for Slice And Dice Interdiction Storm Trooper. I don’t care what it stands for, I’m not going anywhere near that thing!
American Bison
This bison sculpture is something special. This would be a stunning piece in any medium. But in LEGO, the texture of the hinge plates and the contrast of colors between the rider and the bison makes for a nice, subtle blend. Kristof calls it “Heritage”. I call it an incredible work of art.

Who goes there?
This watchful owl, by Mihai Marius Mihu, looks poised to fly off and tell its master of your approach. Proceed with caution!
The owl is nicely done but the angles on that dead tree? Very elegant.
Knife-throwing 101
Ryan Hauge, of BrickWarriors, just posted this fun little scene of an assassin training their apprentice. The timbered roof is cool and the crazy green flames in the fire make me smile, but the archways over the doors and fireplace really make this standout. I also have to mention that four-poster bed. The finials on the bedposts? BrickWarriors’ Magic Wands. Nice touch.
Ryan told me that this is a scene from his new book, now available on Amazon, also called “Riddle of Regicide (Pentavia Book 1)
