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.

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.
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.

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.

In response to the animals cave racing contest, SlyOwl creates a scene of cave racing in the jungle where animals take part in the precarious game.
Shannon Young took an overdose of dreamfruit and created the Glowing Gardens of Cyndir Fis. In addition to the unusually bright colors exhibited, also take note of the cool pathway constructed with cylinders and the orientally styled bridge. Lastly, check out the amazing layout of the place in this top view shot.
Marcin Danielak (Hippotam) contructed a stable with bustling details of people and animals from the country life. I like the use of differently colored wedge plates to partition segments of land (as shown in the overview shot), where builders usually attempts the effect with normal plates.
Jordan Schwartz (Sir Nadroj) built what he thinks is one of the most disgusting scenes in all the Indiana Jones movies that has the ground crawling in giant ants. Although I haven’t seen the movie yet, Jordan’s scene looks very promising.
Zombies in space? Sure, why not.
Jas Nagra‘s “Quarantine Module: Infection Control” has very cool angled walls and incineration pods that I don’t want to get anywhere near.
It would seem Keith Goldman‘s vignettes couldn’t contain minifig Ley Ward. But what’s Ley doing on a monochrome peninsula covered in what looks like hatches?
