Reminiscent of his “Cosmic Chaos,” Nannan Z‘s latest foray into surrealistic LEGO art is titled “Antagonistic Forces Erupting from the Kiss of Bley”. Weird, sure, but oh so cool.
Hey All,
I’m back from a self-inflicted hiatus/exile and just stumbled across this. Hope you all enjoy it!
While I haven’t heard of this builder before, X-Speed seems to specialize in miniland vehicles. Pretty nifty!

Ramón and Amador have added another batch of characters from Bubble Bobble. Here are Hullaballoon and Incendo:
Willy Whistle and Stoner:
Bubble Buster and Baron von Blubba:
