Since it’s been so long since I’ve blogged anything I’m cutting myself some picture quality slack and putting this one up here on the blog. I’ve been jealous of those with the time to play this, from all accounts excellent, game.

LEGO dino is beauto
I know we blog a lot of aurore&aube‘s dinosaurs. But that’s because they’re so good and so well photographed. Enjoy carnotaurus.
Tread Carefully–there be dragons here
Upon first glance, Taylor (Stormbringer) shows us just how lovely a good bit of landscaping can be. A good deal of overgrowth, a nice little cliff, and a tree to tie it all together, with some intrepid outdoor explorers crawling all over it for good measure.
I invite you to look just a little closer, though, and please remember that you are crunchy and taste good with ketchup.
Thank for the tip, Dan A!
Robo kitteh preys on computer mouse
Tyler (Legohaulic) recreates a game of cat and mouse in a circuitry world of machines. Everything in the picture is made out of Lego. Don’t believe me? Take a look at the setup.
Wasp Warriors
Sean and Steph Mayo tap into the hive mind and summon these stunning creatures. Look but don’t touch. They don’t look happy.
Eladi Undersea Research Facility
John and Dave Xandegar go under water with their most recent build. You don’t see a lot of undersea creations and I really like how this facility looks being built into the cliff wall. I’m also really digging those mysterious eyes looking out of the cave…
New Holland Honeyeater
Gabriel Thomson just posted this beautiful creation, depicting the New Holland Honey Eater, a bird common in Southern Australia. I haven’t seen a build of a real animal look this good in a long time. I can only imagine the time and effort that went into getting the shape just right, let alone making it stand up without any external support.
Many thanks to Tim Inman for the heads up.
“Pay Attention, Boy!”
Tyler Clites is in the midst of a whirlwind of creations while participating in the IronBuilder competition. The current piece is the yellow triangular sign piece that he uses for the chicken’s beak in this one. I’m loving the pose and sense of comic tension in this work.
Dragon is Hawt
This red-footed dragon, by Mike Nieves is smoking hot. The use of Hero Factory pieces is superb and the articulation really gives it an “alive” look.
¡Ay, chihuahua!
We’ve spent quite a bit of time in the small dog area at the park lately with Josie and our new pug Ollie, who’s doing his best to set himself apart from the distinguished life and career of the late, great Mr. Pugsly. I’ve seen more chihuahuas in the last few weeks than I’d seen for years before, so I can testify to the absolute accuracy of this wonderful pup by edulyoung — from the perky ears and shiny little bug eyes to the tiny stick legs.

Aquestrian Metal
This piece of work by David Collins (intrond) fits in a unique genre that I can’t decide. It looks like a mix between a spaceship and a mechanical creature. The color blocking and the multifaceted chunks are pleasing to look at. A few stickers add the vital details.
Goons, hired goons
Rong Yiren is no stranger to great character design but these goons manage to have personality with absolutely no motion and minimal detail. They are reminiscent of 8bit characters of old.
