This is what we’re all about. We scour the web for the best custom LEGO models to share with you. From castles and spaceships to planes, trains, and automobiles, you’ll find the best LEGO creations from builders all over the world right here on The Brothers Brick.

Stephen Hawking by Ochre Jelly

Seattle based builder Iain Heath (aka “Ochre Jelly”) apparently caught a piece of science celebrity news that I missed. Eminent physicist and A Brief History of Time author Stephen Hawking will be taking a ride on a plane that will allow him to experience weightlessness. To commemorate this extraordinary man and his extraordinary moment, Iain has created a miniland scale version of Professor Hawking:

Be sure to check out Iain’s Flickr album, where you can see Professor Hawking riding around the surface of Mars, orbiting the Earth, and (I wouldn’t expect anything less from Iain) a 3D stereogram of the world’s favorite wheeled physicist, all in LEGO form.

Minerva-class Battleship by Hiron

If he’s not building mecha, Hiron seems to build great vehicles and vessels inspired by mecha-themed anime.

Here’s his Minerva-class battleship from Crusher Joe (Info):

Legohaulic’s Warthog and Spectre

Too many LEGO creations inspired by Halo look pretty much the same. Not Legohaulic’s:

Excellent. (Via Review’d.)

Chuck Rides Again

Chuck Citrin is beginning to reveal himself as a rather talented young builder. We’ve featured his space and mecha creations here on The Brothers Brick before, but I think this is the first Town creation we’ve highlighted from him. Here’s his John Deere tractor:

From the other side, without farmer-dude:

Micro Bikini Bottom by Ochre Jelly

Ochre Jelly asks, “Hasn’t the world had enough custom Lego robots and space ships? ;-)”

Ha! A fair question, to be sure. So, if you’re tired of seeing nothing but mecha and intergalactic cargo haulers here on The Brothers Brick, do what OJ did — build something different, post it, and let us know. If we like what you send us, we’ll post it.* :D

Here’s Ochre Jelly’s very microscale Bikini Bottom, as a 3D stereogram no less:

* And for the record, we can’t post everything, so just because we don’t post it doesn’t mean we don’t think it’s cool.

Citroen DS by MisterZumbi

Via Polish LEGO blog Klocki Lego dla dorosłych, here’s MisterZumbi’s adorable five-wide Citroen DS:

Naturally, MisterZumbi created some fashionable Parisians to go with the classic French car:

Check out that purse! And I’m no fan of real-life poodles, but what minifig Parisian would be complete without a brick-built pooch?

MS-07B Gouf by Chuck Citrin

Somewhat larger than his Nano Zeon Mobile Suits, Chuck Citrin has built a big blue Gouf (info):

The Kraken Awakes!

I have been meaning to blog this for a while and finally got myself in gear!

Paul Brassington has created a true masterpiece! Not only are his building skills something to die for, but he has taken great shots of the entire scene. Also, check out the nifty video of the flailing tentacles!

See his website here!

Metal Slug 7 Battleship/Tank by cbolego

Looks like this isn’t actually new (based on the hit count in the gallery), but since it’s cool and I haven’t featured it here on The Brothers Brick… Anyway, here’s another strange/cool creation from cbolego inspired by the Metal Slug series of games.

Spacey christmas presents – Thomas E. Dewey By Adrian Drake

Hey all! There have been a pretty good output of nice models during the holidays – in addition to spending time with family and friends, it seems people are taking the time to finish old projects. A good thing! Lets start by taking a look at Adrian Drake’s Thomas E. Dewey, the steam powered airship:

Thomas E. Dewey

The Dewey has been under construction for a long time – the earliest pictures (depicting the starting construction of the hangar bay) came up on Adrian’s flickr in May 2006. Heck, the smaller crafts this beast carries were finished in April! With a unique, sculpted exterior and a deliciously detailed interior, this ship is nothing but a work of art.

MisaQa’s Advent Calendar 2006

It’s that time of year again! Well, at least it is in Japan, where it’s already December 1st. I’ve been hoping MisaQa will start a new advent calendar as she did last year.

She doesn’t disappoint this year, with a “Dressy Dolls” theme. MisaQa’s first stylish lady has a bustle, and some serious curves:

Keep an eye on her Web site, STUD&TUBE, or her gallery on Brickshelf for daily updates between now and Christmas Eve. Thanks for doing this again, MisaQa!

Springfield Tire Fire by Adrian Drake

Among many striking landmarks in the town of Springfield, (immortalized in The Simpsons) is The Tire Fire. Its hauntingly beautiful, ethereal plumes are visible as far away as neighboring Shelbyville. Adrian Drake immortalizes this Modern Marvel in plastic form:
