Yes, I know it’s not technically a dentist’s chair. But it looks like a dentist’s chair from the 1800s that Stephen King’s been commissioned to upgrade. Now tell me–isn’t that the stuff of nightmares?
Karf, this is all your fault. I’m not going to be seeing you for my next cleaning. And I’m not accepting you as a referral from my psychiatrist.
Now all kidding aside, I really WAS drawn to the chair. But the rest of the details are simply superb in this, too. Check it out!
A year in the making, Marcos Bessa‘s Lionheart Villa is clearly a labor of love and really interesting building techniques. The siding, the curtains in the windows…everything comes together and makes this an absolutely gorgeous creation.
As Marcos points out, he’ll be returning to it later this summer to complete the interior. I can’t wait to see what he’ll do for it!
There’s always something that totally draws me in with well-done scenes, and the latest creation from hippotam is no exception to this. His clock tower itself is just gorgeous, and the chaos at the base of the tower is just fantastic.
Real life castles tend to make beautiful LEGO creations, and Neven Cintauer presents his version–gorgeous down to the last micro detail.

There are quite a few who have answered the challenge for Chess at Classic Castle — Ken Robichaud is the first one I’ve seen to take it to new heights.
As Josh pointed out, nnenn’s influence on the LEGO community extended past his favorite theme. Hermitage is an excellent example of his more Earth-based creations.
Be sure to join us in sharing your own thoughts on Nate’s online eulogy.
The most recent Classic-Castle monthly challenge focuses on Chess (either sets or pieces)–and Aaron Dayman’s contribution is simply above and beyond. He’s crafted one side of the board as Forestmen!
Pictures of the individual pieces can be found in his gallery.
While pictures and other such “on the ground” reporting are still scarce, cnet.com has posted this fantastic slideshow of photos with interviews with fans and the community coordinator, Steve Witt.

So…I like Mythbusters. I mean…who doesn’t? Those guys use any excuse to blow things up. It cracks me up.
So I recognized the diorama that Johnathon Gilbert posted…I even recognized the myth:
Tommy Williamson‘s first attempt at a sculpture shows just why he does what he does. Cause he’s clearly fantastic building with bricks.
Just remind me not to make Mickey angry?
Bart Willen has posted a fantastic Little Bo Peep, who may indeed have lost her sheep–but all she needs to do is look behind her.
Forbidden Cove has posted the winners for their first Jolly Roger Contest! I highly encourage you to head on over and check out the fantastic entries.
