Tag Archives: Dioramas

There’s nothing like a massive LEGO diorama to prove that you’ve arrived as a LEGO builder. The LEGO dioramas we feature here span everything from realistic medieval castles to scenes from World War II, and more than a few post-apocalyptic wastelands.

Mecha ambush in the jungle

Carter Baldwin presents a jungle ambush scene involving the attack by two suited mechas on a tank. The action is well defined and the jungle ruins atmosphere is no short of exotic.

Post-Coup Cleanup on Aisle 5

Young Belgian builder imagelego has recently branched out from small military vignettes and vehicles into this detail-rich diorama of an African city in the aftermath of political upheaval.

African Coup

The mere search for interesting subject matter set in new locations is fantastic. And the quality of photography and build sure doesn’t hurt.

Windmill by the sea

Brickshelf user 3730 presents a scene with classic castle structures and building techniques; however, the varied topography of this creation really sets it apart from the rest. The footpath that leads from the bottom corner to the top ties everything together nicely.

Spaniard’s Bay

This harbor scene by Ciamoslaw Ciamek (Piglet) has much charm in its distinct Spanish architecture, which the builder claims to represent buildings of a small trading post in the era of colonization.

Mortus Mortimer resurrects the Big One

With purple flames spewing from an undead dragon, this diorama by Dean Hofmeyer (Unique Name) features an ill-tempered necromancer named Mortus.

Shrooooom!

Yup, Steve Vargo built some shrooms. Pretty cool looking ones too.

LEGO mushrooms shrooms

There is another picture that captures a rare indigenous mushroom creature as well.

I think they must be pretty big, because he built this lumberjack too. He doesn’t say that they go together….but coincidence? I don’t think so.

A better mousetrap...

Legoloverman has achieved that which most of us can only dream about. He has built a better mousetrap. I think it’s pretty spiffy, myself.

The siege of Hrothingas castle

Daniel Z takes his castle evolution project and turns it into a full-scale action-blown battle scene for the Battles Contest on Classic Castle. With that I think there’s no need to fight now, the battle is over!

Bring on the Waterworks

Chase Lewis (Vid’) has posted his largest LEGO diorama to date, featuring a band of survivors holding out against a well-armed apoca-boat.

Clean up on sector 13

Keith Goldman presents a scene of waste disposal in a decaying sector of his Iron Reich realm. The color texturing creates an impressive rusting effect and I approve of the dump of parts – both mechanical and of the charred flesh. Dive into this degenerating world and don’t let its awesomeness dissolve your mind.

Kasteel in Nederland

We don’t normally blog works in progress, but this massive LEGO Castle diorama by Johan “Teddy” van den Heuvel (Johanvande) is too epic to pass up.

Teddy has described his LEGO Castle as “a typical Dutch castle,” but it’s anything but ordinary. From the angled walls to the beautiful cross-shaped windows, I can’t wait to see what Teddy has planned for the final version.

Storming Normandy in a miniature Landing Craft

The Landing Craft the Allies used to storm the beaches of Normandy were definitely not this adorable.

LEGO Landing Craft on Normandy Beach

Nevertheless, this tiny diorama by Nick D.M. (DarthNick) includes plenty of action. The splash of cannon and the *piff* of machine gun fire on the sand are excellent touches.
