At first glance, one sees a typically-fashioned dollhouse. However, this house is made out of Lego by TFOL Lasse Vestergård and his mother. It is made to the curious scale of a custom-built 1958 Lego mascot. Check out the individual room details on Flickr.
Can you find the typewriter, the LEGO wooden duck, and the fried eggs?
Mr. Xenomurphy‘s scene of the battle between Spider-Man and Sandman justly portrays this somewhat obscure villain. The building, despite being the backdrop, is also another highlight of the scene. The usage of 1X2 bricks and tiles mimics the realistic look of the buildings.
While there has been a decent number of western themed creations, few depict the lifestyle of the American Indian. This creation by Cecilie does that and features interesting techniques, most noticeably the texture of the cliff. I also like the use of the mummy wings on the totem pole – a perfect fit. Watch out for that giant rattlesnake!
Kevin Walter built an 85 cm long Hive Ship from Stargate Atlantis. The angled front section is seamlessly connected with the rest of this SHIP. Check out more details on Flickr.
Many companies in the US have call centers located in other countries. For Théolego, he imagines them being on other planets.
For the past 3 years, MOCpages has hosted a building tournament called the MocOlympics. This is a competition where 64 qualifying builders play head to head in single entry elimination rounds until a winner is crowned. It’s a lot of fun to play or watch as each set of builders only have 10 days to build an entry after the announcement of a theme. The winner will have built 7 MOCs over the course of more than 3 months and will be rewarded with 10214 Tower Bridge. There are other prizes as well, so head over to the contest group if you’re interested, or you can also check out last year’s competition.
Here’s a trailer that gives you an idea of the quantity and variety of entries from last year.
I never imagined dark red and transparent dark blue in a MOC, but apparently it’s a good-looking combo of colors as Manuel K shows in the Vulture.
Arthur Sacek developed a milling machine made using only Lego parts and a drill. The video shows the machine sculpting a 3D face from a block of floral foam.
Thanks for the tip aabbee 150!
David Pagano (Paganomation) posted an stop-motion Lego music video about country-style building. This will surely get you out of a building block and inspire you to do some building on top of your building!
Tyler shows that you don’t need a pre-designed piece to build a Lego Halo Banshee in minifigure scale. The Ghost and Covenant units are also quite nice.
Tyler (Legohaulic) built Chell and a companion cube from Portal 2 to go along with his Lego Atlas and P-Body.
