Ryan H. (L.D.M.) has achieved an intriguing form in his Læther (a contraction of “luminiferous” and “æther”) spaceship that combines both the beauty of symmetry and the interestingness of asymmetry. At first glance, one sees a unique shape dominated by random protrusions from the fuselage. A second look will reveal the surprising symmetry of the individual components. Genius!
Kyle Slushey‘s Studly Aquanaut looks like it’s been freshly revived from a pile of rusty junk at the bottom of the waters. The color combination and use of seaweed plays an important role in conveying the personality of this mecha. Check out more of Kyle’s recent designs in his 7 Days of Mecha Madness project.
Matija Grguric made some quality buildings for the City Diorama at Kockice Expo 2010. The brightly colored structures really added a liveliness to the city. I recommend checking out the diorama by clicking on the picture below.
LUGPol proves that even their TFOLs can build with mad skills. Take Makorol and his Liebherr LTM 1050-3.1 mobile crane. I don’t feel qualified to guide you through all the details, but I will mention that like every LUGPol vehicle, adding Power Functions is obligatory (see the video). See more pictures on Brickshelf.
A group of Japanese builders including MisaQa and Kotaro “EARL-0″ Ono constructed this epic fantasy world. And if this much work went into a sketch of the project, it shouldn’t come as a surprise the awesomeness of the finished work.
You don’t have to have been in China to recognize the distinct Chinese architecture portrayed in Andy Hung‘s rendition of the Wong Tai Sin Temple in Hong Kong. The intricate layering of multi-colored plates simulates the colorful ornamentation on the actual building. Check out the full gallery where you can see the complete creation featuring an additional lit-up bus station.
Kyle Vrieze (bermudafreze) displayed this deadly beauty of a SHIP at Brickworld. Unlike other ships, it carries combat cargo. Watch out ground forces, the last thing you might see is its shadow above your head.
A new LEGOLAND Discovery Center is scheduled to open in Grapevine Mills that gives convenient access for residents of the Dallas/Ft. Worth metroplex to an indoor LEGOLAND park. Currently there are four LEGOLAND Discovery Centers in Chicago, Berlin, Duisburg, and Manchester. You can read more by clicking on the image below.
The M6D Pistol is a favorite weapon of many Halo players back in the days of Halo: Combat Evolved. This life-sized rendition by Robo-Man is best I’ve seen. I particularly like the SNOT details and the utilization of studs on the grip.
Junsier returns to Flickr with his best version of the Slave I. The almost sculptural quality of this creation captures the difficult curves of the ship. Jabba won’t have to wait long for his prize.
Romão and his students built the Window of the Chapter House (Janela do Capítulo) at the Convent of the Order of Christ in Portugal. At first I didn’t know what it was and thought of it as a biomechanical sci-fi sculpture similar to the brick-built Li II. I’m happy to have found out otherwise and learn some history in the process.
