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.

Thanks to Fedde, the droid factories of the future go green

Fedde envisions a future in which droids go in, and then they go out.

Lots more on Brickshelf — definitely worth the visit for all the great details in this scene.

Nick Dean returns fire

Like Nannan’s Black Fantasy and Tim’s cave racers, Nick Dean‘s RAMM theme has become an Internet phenomenon, copied ad nauseum — sometimes successfully, sometimes not.

So it’s always refreshing to see a new RAMM creation from the Feldmarschall himself:

But perhaps Nick is most famous for his future-military vehicles, like this RAMM Bluthund Quadruped:

Light-up Iron Man minifig by Brickmodder

This isn’t a Photoshop job:

That’s right, Brickmodder has added 7 LEDs to a custom Iron Man minifig. (Custom decals by Jared “Kaminoan” Burks and Chris “Uubergeek” C.)

Here’s Mr. Stark in action (with weapons by BrickArms):

Two scenes by Sir Nadroj

We feature two unique dioramas by the ever so prolific Jordan Schwartz, depicting a Victorian-esque sci-fi laboratory, which serves as the backdrop in the first part of Jordan’s fiction story called Journey to the Center of the Earth. The working lights on this creation are purchased from Lifelites.

Next is a creation called Bar of the Future, featurng a crowd of whimsical bar aliens.

Gorazd Vahen patrols the desert

Gorazd Vahen‘s “fist vig” features a very cool little vehicle:

Also check out the Jeep in dark grey:

I’m always impressed when somebody has the patience to rebuild one of their creations in an alternate color scheme.

Fighting off infection

Daniel creates his own adventure

The Create Your Own Adventure building challenge on Classic-Castle.com (hosted by Micah “LORD DOOM” B.) inspired Daniel to build a series of dioramas illustrating the struggle between dwarves, goblins, and humans to defend an important mine.

My favorite version is Daniel’s latest, with beautiful landscaping, ingenious dwarven machinery, and lots of activity:

Don’t miss other versions of this scene, including one with goblins in control and humans attempting to take the mine from the goblins.

Ladrillitos Cubanos

Patrick Bosman visited Cuba in 2006, and has captured the spirit of a Cuban street, from the colonial architecture and pre-revolutionary vehicles to the diversity of the Cuban people:

The building has an interior, so be sure to check out the Brickshelf gallery for inside shots, close-ups of the cars, and other angles.

The moat around Kris Kelvin’s castle is rather deep

I think we tend to picture castles as big gray walls and forget that medieval castle fortifications often included wooden hoardings to aid in the castle’s defense.

Kris Kelvin‘s castle gate has two types of hoardings that lend variety to his construction:

I really like the “deep slice” technique (I just came up with that; I’m sure there’s a better term) Kris uses in this diorama, showing off the depth of the moat.
