Jordan Schwartz gets everyone in the mood for pirates with his latest and largest creation depicting a peaceful harbor invaded by plundering pirates. There’s plenty of action floating around this scene, but most impressive is the pirate ship, which is a spectacle in itself.
Check out Jordan’s creation featured on LAMLtv with a clip of the builder explaining his work in person.
Tom Snellan is the first to enter the 6th annual Collossal Castle Contest with a creation that sets the bar high. Titled “The Perfect Life?”, this seemingly peaceful diorama depicts happiness with a twist, where hooded Death approaches ominously to claim an innocent’s life. What an eerie juxtaposition!
Okay, Brothers Brick readers, our GO MINIMAN GO Photo Contest ends in less than a week, on October 31!

Thanks for all the great entries so far, everyone!

I present my latest surrealist sculpture, called the Legacy of Vision. It is an exploration of the theme of insanity and a sequel to my earlier work, the Cry of Dreams. Both sculptures are made in similar style, depicting equally macabre subjects. Likewise, I have a bit of writing accompanying this work, which will offer more insight to this creation for those interested. I’m planning on eventually making a third scultpure to complete the three-piece collection called the Metamorphosis of the Mind.
SlyOwl‘s entry for the Forbidden Cove Castaway Contest uses so many interesting techniques it’s hard to pick just a few to highlight:
The skeleton parts evoke a truly ragged sail. The narwhale in the water takes a moment to recognize, but once identified, SlyOwl’s brilliance is unquestionable. The reindeer head on a stick is, well, interesting.
Oh, and the goats are adorable.
Whew, back to normal blogging! We’ve missed highlighting a few non-BrickCon related creations over the weekend, but we’ll get to them.
Aaron Andrews (DARKspawn), who’s normally a castle builder, switches fancy and builds a big mech bay instead. It’s sufficient to say one might say that he’s been up to building mecha all his life, but that’s just because this Aussie builder is incredibly talented. Enjoy the creation before Aaron surprises us with something else!
One part Alice in Wonderland, one part Super Mario Bros., four parts awesome, Shannon Young places a little white kitten in certain peril.
The door behind the cloud is amazing, and the sun is brilliant.
