Creepy crawly or fuzzy & fluffly (yes, that’s possible in LEGO), we love our LEGO animals. Check them out here, and fall in love yourself.

Getting down and dirty with Battle Mole.

Drew blames his girlfriend for this one. Here’s hoping that she makes him build more cool stuff. Listen to her, Drew, do what she says!

The expression on this mole’s face is adorable. His battle armor makes you wish you never mentioned the word “adorable” anywhere near him….

Have you hugged your fender today?

These adorable little canines by Moritz are too cute for words. From now on, whenever I see these pieces actually used as fenders, I’ll wonder why they crammed doggie heads in there….

The builder gives proper credit to Teik Joon for using a fender as an animal head.

WarholBots embrace kitsch and pretty colors

LEGO Andy Warhol robots

It’s always enjoyable to be able to lift a title straight from flickr. Alex Eylar (Profound Whatever) is the inventor (or maybe discoverer) of the adorably cute WarholBots.

EDIT: Alex has just made it easier to see his collection of artbots.

Got Grey Matter?

This friendly-looking zombie loves you. Naturally he loves you for your brains…but that’s what they all say.

*croak*

It’s been nearly a year since Danny Rice (Big_X) posted a LEGO creation, but bricks have never been far from his thoughts, since this little guy has been keeping him company on his desk.

LEGO fans sometimes criticize so-called “single-use” parts. Danny proves that there’s more than one use for the LEGO Star Wars Dewback head.

T-rex skeleton still looks hungry

Jonathan (legomocs) finished his T-rex skeleton and it is beautiful. The challenge of tacking such a complex organic shape is formidable, but Jonathan pulled it off. This is a very respectable build.

Lupusicle

Flick user retinence shows a very dab hand at Bionicle construction with his wolf. Apparently he “skimped on the technique”. I’d be curious to see what non-skimping looks like because it’s fantastic as is.

LEGO Chocobo looks too fierce to be chained up

LEGO Chocobos were a bit of a fad a few years ago, but they were all based on the same design. Carl Merriam takes these key Final Fantasy characters to new LEGO heights, though it’s unclear why the big yellow guy isn’t allowed to roam free.

Mythical monsters galore

Partially inspired by the LEGO Minotaurus game, Matt Armstrong (monsterbrick) started building micro mythical monsters almost two months ago and just hasn’t stopped. Each incorporates good micro work and angles, but my favorite monsters have at least one fantastically creative use of elements.

The first is Matt’s personal favorite, a Harpy.

His second is a Chinese dragon that has an impressive head and lower jaw.

Woof!???

dog

I’m really not sure what this dog by Chandler Parker would say but I feel it would more pithy than a simple ‘woof!’. Maybe it’s the canine equivalent of the Cheshire Cat.

Predator or prey?

Ryan Rubino continues his predator vs. prey series and turns the lens to focus on macro wildlife. The depictions of the Yellow Jacket and Black Widow are convincingly realistic, but I think the most innovative feat of the creation lies in the staging of the encounter. It must have been a true act to skill and patience to balance the creatures on the intricate web and plant stalks.

Philadelphia Zoo display features sculptures by Sean Kenney

Sean Kenney has been busy building sculptures for the Creatures of Habitat display at the Philadelphia Zoo. The display aims to inspire awareness of endangered species and protection of our planet, and it will run from April 10 to October 31, 2010.

This huge life-sized polar bear is made up of over 95,000 LEGO pieces and took over 1100 hours to construct together with a team of 5 assistants. Sean deliberately and carefully captured the realism of a bear that seemed to be a little frustrated, a little sad and confused at the same time about the predicament of being an endangered species.
