About Josh

Josh is 30+ years old and has more Lego than he has hair. Which really isn't saying much. He builds mostly medieval creations, but dabbles in other genres. He is also a father and uses his kids as an excuse to buy Lego. That justification isn't working as well as it used to, so if you can think of a better justification, feel free to contact him. Meanwhile, back at the ranch, Josh's Brickshelf gallery gets messier and messier. Josh also has a Flickr gallery, if you care about such things. He goes by the name "floodllama" there. If you wonder why he goes by "floodllama", you've obviously never owned a llama in flood. Josh feels sorry for you.

Green, Brown & Blaq

Cole Blaq has burst onto the Flickr Lego scene with some really nice offerings. My favorite is this camouflaged walker, simply dubbed “Jungle Bot”.

Thanks to Greg Ramel for pointing this out!

I need a new pair of shoes

This great pair of Chuck Taylor All-Stars, by Matt Armstrong, reminded me of that.

It was a three hour tour...[Parody Sets]

Dave Shaddix is working on a beautiful series of Gilligan’s Island creations. Based on episodes from the iconic TV show, they are accompanied by some pretty snazzy box art!

Just a reminder, since the box art looks so authentic, these parody sets don’t actually exist!

Spirit of the Bronx:

Gilligan & the Voodoo Monkey:

You should also check Dave’s MOCpage. Thanks to Heather for the heads up.

A Chicken Chaser by Kevin Fedde

I’m a sucker for ApocaLego. Especially the lone survivor type. This little scene by Kevin Fedde is excellent. In fact, he is doing a series, based on this fig’s journal. You can keep track of the updates in Kevin’s ApocaLego folder.

My wife said I couldn’t blog this, as she likes chickens and felt sorry for the poor thing. Don’t tell her that I posted it, okay?

Rocko and his M8...what a pair!

Okay, I admit that I’m out of the loop on this one. But I’m sure someone will fill me in. These little bots were showing up everywhere at BrickCon. Then they started taking over Flickr. Now I’m helping them invade TBB. Why? I don’t even know. But this big one by Rocko is flippin’ sweet.

Edit: Since I stole Nannan’s thunder, he asked me to add the following link to the Flickr group administrated by Don Solo. Don is the originator of the epic Walter/M8 saga. All the information you need to know is in there. I learned a whole heap. Now I need to build my own….

It’s like Clockwork

This snazzy robotic individual is Rong Yiren‘s newest offspring. There is so much I could say but I’ll just let him speak for himself.

Daniel Jassim’s Hurricane Heavy Assault Craft

This troop ship by Daniel Jassim is simply gorgeous. Classic lines, just enough greebles, perfect interior, and packed with functional details. You have to check out that front ramp! Overall, a really nice build.

Glutton by Huxhold

This is a rather old one, by Kevin Huxhold. I’ve never seen it before so I’m blogging it! Why? Because I can! And it’s really cool….

The Steamviper brings it

Personally, I’m a bit tired of the BSG Viper fad, but I had to make an exception here. V&A Steamworks cruises in with a Steampunk Viper and its full of nifty win. Check out those Duplo Pirate Pistols, Bionicle pieces and Harry Potter pieces! This thing is loaded with stuff that should never be in the same room together, let alone in the same creation. It workin’ though…really well.

SlyOwl stings...Tse-Tse style

The ball-shaped cockpit on this Tse-Tse scout, by SlyOwl, is incredible. I should know, I tried building one today. I failed.

Roundup of Rod Gillies’ Steampunk

Rod Gillies is one of my favorite Steampunk builders and lately he has been very prolific. Each of his recent creations deserved to be highlighted but there were so many. Therefore…it’s roundup time!

First up is the Steamflier, belonging to Clyde Vernon Cessna. I’m loving the wings on this one, as well as the upside down rowboat. Sure, that’s been done before, but this they really work together well here.

I’ve always liked those Victorian Penny-farthings, with the giant front wheel. The American Zephyr (built by Davis and Harleyson) is a great take on the old design.

Last in our roundup is the Land Rover, driven here by J.K. Starley. The sheer bulk of this makes me laugh. I love the fenders and those wheels are awesome.

Scared of spiders? I thought so...

Kidthor has concocted a smooth blend of System and Bionicle. It’s rather scary too….
