You’d probably expect a lot of the posts on a LEGO website like The Brothers Brick to be about LEGO, and you’d be right. If you’re browsing this page, you might want to consider narrowing what you’re looking for by checking out categories like “Space” and “Castle.” We’re sure there’s something here that’ll fascinate and amaze you.

LEGO DOOM Cacodemon

Bart De Dobbelaer has built a classic “baddie”, the Cacodemon, from the iconic and controversial video game “DOOM“. It is so perfect (and adorable) I need one…or three.

Doom - Cacodemon

EDIT: I had originally written that the Cacodemon was introduced in DOOM 2, but I was in error. Many thanks to Peter Morris for the correction!

Mark Larson sits down for a Q&A about the new LegoLand Hotel in California.

Mark Larson has been no stranger to readers of The Brothers Brick. Mark is now working for LEGO as a Master Modeler. One of his recent projects has been working on the new Legoland hotel, set to open in April at Legoland California.

Mark recently did an interview with Huffington Post Travel and answered many questions about his work on the hotel, his job with LEGO and how to get a dragon in a bathtub to talk (spoiler alert: it’s secret LEGO magic).

Dwalin and Balin...brother dwarves in LEGO form

Dwalin and Balin are probably my two favorite dwarves from The Hobbit and Eero Okkonen recreated them perfectly. There is a plethora of cool details in both figures but the pattern on Balin’s shirt is incredible.

Turn to Stone

My crony from Philadelphia Carter Baldwin returns to TBB with his latest mecha, the NATO ‘Gorgon’ Mobile Frame. Based on concept art by flyingdebris, Carter brings the futuristic war machine to life with some very inventive techniques. The only question remaining is which gorgon this respresents…Stheno, Euryale or their more famous sister Medusa?

Cool the Engines

Michael Bosch, better known as §┬≡╖z, brings you a revamped version of his MiG-343 Foxhound posted late last year. The design is a fairly accurate representation of concept art by Steve “Coolhand” Tyler (not the cracked-out “singer” from Aerosmith) and sports a variety of interesting design features.

Would you like an olive?

The range of parts in the new olive green colour is pretty limited. But that appears to be no setback at all for Chris (Ironsniper) who, it looks like, used the constraints to inspire the design of his Honda カメレオン. I’ve tagged this one into building techniques too as ‘cladding’ in a rare colour is a useful technique for anyone.

Sine Mora Aircraft by Peter Morris

Peter L. Morris was commissioned by Digital Reality to build LEGO examples of some of the aircraft from their XBOX Live game Sine Mora. Peter’s unique starfighter style translated very well for both of these planes. Big congrats to Peter on the commission, and a job well done!

GARC Souvenir Stand by TFDesigns

Sadly I seem to have somehow missed this fantastic render by TFDesigns. But thankfully I have seen it now.

Support Your Favorite Race Team...

Not only is the image itself a brilliant editing job, but the design of the t-shirt trailer is top notch. Awesome job all around!!

Edit:

Also check out his LowRover :)

Asteroid Mining

I’ve really come to enjoy building in microscale, especially for space models. I can build large scenes that actually fit on my desk, like my latest foray into microscale, this asteroid mining colony.

I don’t really know what to say about Karf’s latest creation…except that he wins the internet for making a LEGO dude with a purple moustache and translucent red boots.

To Infinity and Beyond

Daedalus Zero G Drop Suit

For a long time now, I wanted to do something with the Galidor head I had. My idea was to build a mecha or hardsuit around it. The result: Daedalus Zero G Drop Suit. As it was taking shape, it started feeling like a version of a Buzz Lightyear Space Ranger. It features the domed helmet, retractable wings and jetpack, big res chest button, communicator on the right gauntlet and a laser on the left gauntlet.
