Ericmok from Hong Kong built a scene from Romance of the Three Kingdoms in the style of a Chinese painting, using monochrome shades to mimic the effect of a painting in black ink. The scroll background is a perfect way to frame the scene, making it very presentable.
His jade seal is also worthy of a mention, in which green and sand green are used to convey the texture of the jade. The characters on the seal say “Three Kingdoms.”
The latest creations by the power functions mastermind Peer Kreuger (mahjqa) hail from The Dark Knight Rises.
Check out the video to see the Tumbler tearing up the streets with The Bat “flying” above.
Michael Jasper‘s table tennis scene is as usual an inspiration in parts usage. Can you find the ping-pong ball?
Mike Nieves (retinence) is the most innovative Bionicle builder I know. His style of using the appropriate parts to create seamless contours is both imaginative and reflective of great skill. His artwork-inspired Xenomorph Rex is breathtaking in its biomechanical composition.
Sean and Steph Mayo (Siercon and Coral) present an amazing fantasy creation called Faerie Forest. From the tree spires to the textured river that weaves through them, this diorama is bursting with interesting details. Check out the Flickr set for more pictures.
Simon Liu’s (Si-MOCs) Friends-themed space hangar is bursting with pastel shades of pink and blue. Its name FriendSHIP alone is worthy of a mention, a perfect pun. There’s also a third level by Isaac (Ricecracker.) that stacks with the other two to form a completed display.
This mecha by Tattun goes to show that there are still gems on Brickshelf that aren’t seen on Flickr or MOCpages.
At first glance you may think you’re looking at another typical large castle diorama, but a second look will quickly reveal anachronistic elements such as a train, a military patrol boat, and… a mad scientist’s lab? Indeed, this diorama by Ciamosław Ciamek is no ordinary castle. Check out the story on Flickr and visit Brickshelf for all the detail shots.
Rymdreglage, the creator of 8-bit trip, recently announced the making of 8-bit trip 2. Anyone who has undertaken a large Lego project will also know the tedious process of sorting. 71 hours later and this video was made.

Michael McCooey recently made an action figure of the the Dark Knight in anticipation of the movie. The figure is very posable, and there are tons of pictures on Flickr and MOCpages to prove it.
Daniel Z presents the best Lego rendition of Helm’s Deep I’ve seen. In addition to its massive scale, the creation maintains a high quality such as seen in the texture of the landscape. Unfortunately it does not appear that any official Lego Lord of the Rings minifigs or new parts were used, which leads me to believe that the creation was made before their release. But overall, one cannot deny this majestic recreation of an epic battle.
