Adrian Florea‘s excellent Zerg Baneling from StarCraft II just makes the game’s release date seem that much farther away.
And don’t miss Matt de Lanoy’s Banshee.

Dracopedes & Necrosorcerers
Fedde combines scorpions, crabs, dragon wings, and other disparate elements into one amazing whole he calls a “Dracopede”:
And here’s another one we missed over the holidays. Fedde showcases his alter ego, the Necrosorcerer Karf Oolhu, “Making himself a +10 Crown of Magic Protection”:
So that’s what the Old Ones did before traversing the depths of space, only to fall asleep beneath the waves here on Earth…
A Chicken Chaser by Kevin Fedde
I’m a sucker for ApocaLego. Especially the lone survivor type. This little scene by Kevin Fedde is excellent. In fact, he is doing a series, based on this fig’s journal. You can keep track of the updates in Kevin’s ApocaLego folder.
My wife said I couldn’t blog this, as she likes chickens and felt sorry for the poor thing. Don’t tell her that I posted it, okay?
Scared of spiders? I thought so...
All your Cows are belong to us...
The extremely prolific Jordan Schwartz is aiding and abetting those dang aliens. This is a real menace and nothing to joke about. Check out the evidence for yourself.

B is for Blockula
The indomitable Mike Crowley is working on a series of alphabet animals. They are small, cute and packed with that Crowley charm. Makes me wish I could build like that.
M is for Monkey:
He’s also built a pretty sweet Penguin.
5935 Island Hopper seaplane redux by Mike Psiaki
Mike Psiaki continues to churn out great additions to his Jurassic Park layout.
His latest is actually inspired by 5935 Island Hopper, from the Adventurers “Dino Island” series.
Here’s Mike’s current lineup of terrible lizards:
Steampunkery at its Crabbiest
V&A Steamworks just posted a terrifyingly awesome Steampunk Crab. It has no name, as yet, but they are asking for suggestions. Go check it and drop off a few.
Scared of Snakes?
This car, by Firas Abu-Jaber, is out to get you.
I meant to blog this right after it was posted, but I forgot. I’m not perfect, okay? Anyway, it deserves to be showcased, as its freakin’ sweet! I’m loving that giant snake too.
MisaQa kicks off her 2008 Advent Calendar
Those of you lucky enough to snag a 7979 Castle Advent Calendar have probably just started opening those little doors to discover your Christmas goodies. (You can also follow along on ReasonablyClever.com.)
One of my favorite holiday LEGO traditions, though, is the series of small creations posted each day in December (until Christmas Day) by Japanese builder MisaQa. This year, she’s focusing on “Mythical Creatures,” starting with the Wyvern:
Since it’s already December 2 in Japan, she’s also posted her second creature, a three-headed Cerberus:

“Turkey” Tactical Response and Combat Enforcer by Adrian Drake
Our focus here on The Brothers Brick is new creations (unless we’re fooled on Brickshelf, as we sometimes are). Nevertheless, classic creations come to our attention now and then that predate the blog and absolutely deserve broader attention.
Adrian Drake (Brickfrenzy) has been posting pictures of older creations on Flickr lately, and my favorite so far is his turkey mecha:

Oh, and a belated “Happy Thanksgiving!” from me, too. ;-)
