Titolian‘s robots are creative, fun, and well dressed. Gentle-Bot 4000 is certainly no exception. Sporting turn-of-the-century fashions (love the watch-fob!) and splendid, poofy sleeves, the GB4k is most certainly ready to serve tea at any time.
Watch out for the mustache, though.
The Medieval Weapon challenge on Classic-Castle continues to showcase some spectacular creations, including this club mace from Ken Robichaud:
Fun fact–I am, in fact, a sucker for classic cars. I went to my prom in a very, very lovely 1967 Firebird, and the thing simply purred.
And while my building style makes it difficult for me to translate that sort of enthusiasm into LEGO, Peter Blackert does not appear to have the same issue that I do:
There are plenty more vehicles in his gallery.
Lolas has done an excellent job capture the simple chaos after the storm, complete with tree roots, unintentional swimming sessions, and general mayhem.
I’m not totally sure how I missed the rest of his phenomenal creations, but I highly recommend taking a moment to check out the rest of his page. He’s got some GREAT things in there, including entries to Classic Castle’s recent contests.
Justin Vaughn’s latest addition to his Micro city (Micropolis) is a thing of sheer beauty. Built to TwinLug’s Micro City Standard, the whole build seems effortless.
Check out the rest of his set to see other great Micro creations!
Pixar movies seem to be a serious favorite here, and for me, UP is no exception. Peter Aoun’s latest little vignette brings the same sense of wonder, of far off places, of strange birds…and Doug.
In terms of historical builds, I tend to find periods like fantasy/medieval, Wild West, WWII, etc. fairly often. What I don’t tend to see a great deal of is American history, circa 1770-1780 — of which blego7‘s Lexington falls right into that category.
Try as I might, all I can come up with are some really tacky bee-related jokes. But I dare not say them to Ryan Wood’s strangely adorable Primopoc Buzzer…but then again, I’m afraid of bees.
There are some fantastic entries coming in, for Classic-Castle‘s Time Twisters contest. For a brief re-cap, the idea is take an existing set, and turn your wayback machine a few centuries…or in this case, switch your “fantasy worlds” entirely!
Rod Gillies weighs in with his Twisted AT-AT:
Janey “Red Brick” Gunning shows support for Team Canada with her sculpture depicting the logo of the 2010 Winter Olympic Games:
Derfel Cadarn has cast his lot for the Jolly Roger Contest at Forbidden Cove with this fantastic entry, Skull Beneath the Skin (for the Pirate Island category, naturally).
I adore that ramshackle structure…it just screams pirate-goodness. It also looks more stable than some boats I’ve seen on Lake Union, but I digress…
