I really enjoy Nick Dean’s (who also goes by the name Kcaster on Brickshelf and Flickr) little treaded mech called Longbow. Clean and purdy!

Bram Lambrecht’s Lamborghini Renazzo
Bram Lambrecht gives us a Lamborghini Renazzo:
An interesting thing about this car is that it is not made for the traditional lego-figures (the minifigs), but for the larger technic figs. This larger scale has enabled Bram to create some very interesting functionality, such as the fantastic opening mechanism. Very nice touch.

Mech-killing with Jerac
First of, sorry everyone (readers, Andrew, Josh, Nathan, mother, santa) for not bringing you space the past week and a half or so. Real life is getting in the way, with one switch of apartment just done and the second one coming up in two weeks. Until I’m all settled down I might have to do big chunks of updates like this. Luckily Andrew just can’t keep away ;-)
The same Jerac who created the above linked Corviwurm also goes mech-killing with his Scorpicore. I just love the low profile and the ridiculously sized weapons. Jerac is a builder who has evolved a lot over the past few months, quickly profiling himself as a great builder.

Tim Gould’s CorpChop
Lego Cad-wizard Tim Gould has actually touched his bricks this time. A good thing too, since it resulted in this nifty little corporate chopper:

The steamy world of Bartholomew Crank
Still playing catch up. The often blogged Legohaulic has gone on a steampunk building spree lately. He has invented an inventor named Bartholomew Crank. First up is Crank’s personal airship, the Boistrous Maiden. Note the patchy balloon!
And to his mailman, Mr. Basil, Bartholomew Crank built the aptly named Postal Gyro:

Doing somebody else’s dirtywork – catching up on Niels Bugge
Since Andrew has had precious little time lately, it seems he had a backlog of creations to post. Now that I’m on board, he very comfortably shifts all of those things over to me so that he can sit still and do nothing ;-). To start with, here is Niels Bugge’s space version of the Lamborghini Countach:
After meeting him in person, I can attest that Niels is a very technical builder, often thinking in great detail about how to best do certain things. His semi-recently posted Z-fighter 2 is also proof of that – it is essentially a refinement of a previous model.

Jon Walker’s T93 Solaris
A week or so ago Jon Walker, or psyop on Brickshelf, presented an impressive microscale creation named T93 Solaris. Despite being micro, it is still bigger than most other creations:
Later on he posted a batch of updates to it as well as some construction shots, all documented in this lugnet post. A very impressive creation for sure!

Matt De Lanoy’s Mos Eisley diorama
Matt De Lanoy, aka Pepa Quin, impress us all with a diorama he showed at a recent LEGO exhibition called Brickfest. It is just wicked. Besides having a good amount of details, it is also motorized so that a bunch of vehicles can run around on it! Here is a gallery with pictures of it, and there is also a complementary video on YouTube showing it in action. Good stuff.

Gil Shaw’s General Cargo Vehicle
Gil Shaw is a builder who often manages to create playable models with nice looks. His latest little GCV, or General Cargo Vehicle, is no exception.

A newcomer is in town, showcasing Mark Stafford’s Isurus
Hi there. You might notice that I’m not one of the usual posters – Andrew or Josh – but rather someone else. My name is Linus Bohman, and I usually build and hang out with lego space builders. If you recognize my name you might have seen me on Classic-Space or From Bricks To Bothans. Andrew has contracted me (I wont say what I get out of this ;-) to be part of the bigger better Brother’s Brick and bring you the latest and best of the spacey goodness out there – something I intend to do swiftly and unmercifully. Now, let’s get it on!
Mark Stafford has posted an update to the previously blogged Mako. The new craft is a military version, and a great improvement to an already nice craft:
The new craft is called Isurus. Wonder why? Read Mark’s short comic strip, entitled “gentle persuasion“, to find out…
