From beetles to snails, we’ve enjoyed the encounters that Geppelin‘s minifigs have had with animals over the years, but none are cuter than this kitten meeting a ninja.
Thanks for the link, little bro! Hope I didn’t make Tsunami too jealous.
Matt Armstrong isn’t called MonsterBrick for nothing. Especially since he recently gave birth to this incredibly awesome death machine.
He also took new pics just for us, so we were forced to blog it. Otherwise he might have let this thing loose on us….
Chris M (powerpig) apparently has a troupe of semi-tame chipmunks living in his back yard. In fact, they’re so tame that they’ll pose for photos with his toys.
I’d just been paying attention to Chris’ LEGO photography until now, but his critter pictures are amazing too!
Cheyne Potter (AfroEngineer) posted this cute little plane based on concept art in the Classic-Space.com concept art gallery.
The minifig has hair from one of the upcoming Town sets, so it looks like those sets should be more widely available soon!
While we’re at it, check out Cheyne’s ingenious use of blue chairs as water in this scene:
Nathan Proudlove (Proudlove) has built an adorable seamonster. He says that it’s based on one in Disney World. I’ve never been there, so I can’t vouch for the accuracy of the model. I can say that it’s awesome, though.
With his latest diorama, Jordan Schwartz (Sir Nadroj) taps into one of my favorite sources of inspiration — the deep past.
In this scene, an early human stalks a woolly mammoth during the Ice Age. With a half-barrel on his head and Adventurers hats for ears, the mammoth is also full of interesting part uses and building techniques.
Aaron Dayman (CBLA Member) may not be the champion of the sun, but it looks like his Treeman creation probably is. Just look at how huge it has grown! I know that I blogged about another ent creation a few weeks back, but I just can’t get enough good organic looking creations. Maybe it’s because I find that style difficult to build myself. Anyways, it looks like the posability on this sucker is really good.
I keep faving and bookmarking each new creation from Rong Yiren but failing to blog them not because they’re unworthy but because I like his next creation even more.
But enough delay! Rong’s mechanical gorilla is stunning — full of personality and life. The mechGORILLA’s expression is almost wistful…
Rong has also been delving into the ocean for inspiration. His “solar whale” Aku Aku is no less gorgeous than his mechGORILLA:
Aku Aku may have to run the other way if pursued by the Hammerjack:
BZPower member The Zipper recently posted this “hornet-like creature” that you probably wouldn’t meet in your great aunt’s garden — not that you’d want to!
The Zipper’s design also gives her creature a look akin to a Zerg Mutalisk — another nasty beast whose acquaintance you’d best avoid.
Thanks for the link, Joey!
