Tyler does it again. This flying terror is a thing of beauty and joy forever. It’s one of those rare creations that I actually want to build myself….

Big Hairy Spider
This gigantic spider by Jason Ruff (Doctor Mobius) makes the hairs on my back stand up. In addition to the thousands of hair spikes covering its body, this nightmare creature also packs egg missiles and drones. If you don’t have arachnophobia, you probably do now.
Scrap Metal never looked so good.
Aaron Dayman has concocted a lovely blend of technique and terror. If I don’t sleep tonight, I’ll never forgive him. I’m loving it.
Curiouser and Curiouser!
Angus MacLane has taken a trip to Wonderland with his latest installment of CubeDudes. They are all excellent, but the Caterpillar’s expression and the White Rabbit are exceptional.
The Kollecta by Karf Oolhu
I don’t even know where to begin with how and why I love this crazy giant caped robot grim reaper scientist park stroller thingy by Fedde (Karf Oolhu). Obviously it made me think of a lot of things, intentional or unintentional. I especially like the contrast between the yellow flowers and the stark black of the Kollecta himself.
Harder than life rhino
I like this model of a rhinoceros by Stefan (-2×4-).
The title has to do with an odd tidbit I discovered the other day: Rhino skin is actually kind of soft. I did not know that.
Resting on the rooftop
It’s the whimsical contrast between the parked cars and a creature of legend that I really like about this microscale block by Stefan (-2×4-).
I have a window office now, and if I looked out and saw a bloody great dragon peering down at me it would freak me the hell out.
Under the Sea
Juho William Tauriainen takes us on an underwater adventure with this scene built largely from Bionicle pieces. He has managed to achieve a very organic, eye-catching look here.
Lurker in the darkness
Apparently I was by far from being the only fan of Mike Foy‘s monster called The Void. The simple use of the new claws are are extremely effective along with the arms made out of lever bases and the string wrapped around the torso.
Robo-Rex
While this creation may not quite be Grimlock from the Transformers, it IS a robotic Tyrannosaurus Rex. Built by Alyse and Remi (or maybe only one of them, but it’s a shared flickr account) this creation really packs in the details. Plus, it’s got style.
I’m enjoying the mix of functional and decorative on this model. Many of the joints are geared, but there appear to be others used for visual effect. The various bar shapes lead to an image of a cage over the functional bits. Add in a perfectly expressive face (after all, a T-Rex should only have to look scary) and you’re left with a truly excellent creation.
Cole Blaq summons the water dragon
There are some times when you have to stare in awe at a creation; this is one of those times. Cole Blaq pulls off the difficult task of creating the organic form of the creature and uses transparent light blue elements to create effects that further enhance the model. It’s truly a sight to behold.
Lego Monster builds Toruk from Avatar
Ed Diment (Lego Monster) proves his worthiness to the Na’vi by building the Great Leonopteryx known as Toruk. Wait, do they even have Lego on Pandora?
