Inspired by Alex Kahler’s micro creation featuring a mini Dreadnought from Warhammer 40K, Jarek presents a micro dio featuring a few of his designs, including a nifty little tank, complete with an accompanying diorama.

The world has moved on. The mountain remains.
Justin Vaughn continues the story he began with “Autumn Solitude” in his latest post-apocalyptic diorama, “Tedious Descent”:
Here’s a bit of the story to whet your appetite:
16 October, 2017 – Day 154
Well, day one of my trek back to town is coming to an end. It snowed a tad this morning, but not enough to really make problems…

The desert fortress of the Calrissians
In Rocko‘s desert landscape there stands a fortress defended by a band of people known as … (wait for it) … Calrissians:
Click the pic for Flickr, or check out lots more in Rocko’s Brickshelf gallery, where you’ll find the usual jokes and Easter eggs.
Not content to take a crack at just one world religion, Rocko takes on at least one more with his trademark irreverence, reminding everyone, “When the Rapture comes, don’t forget your monkey.”
No matter your religious affiliation, you gotta admire the sun, the floating figs, and sense of perspective from the microscale buildings below.
The making of Apocalypsis
Following Mark Kelso‘s phenomenal presentation of his Apocalypsis, the builder has taken time to prepare the behind the scenes work of this masterpiece. Take a look at some of the contruction images of the cave and the jungle and how Mark managed to put everything together.
The Span of Gryhnt Piro by Remyth
I’m more impressed with each new Castle creation Thomas “Remyth” Wunz posts. “Gryhnt Piro” is certainly no exception:
Here’s Thomas in his own words:
During the glory of the rule of Gyrothyr, the fourteenth king of Veryluai (very-lu-a), many fair things were built. Thought it has rarely been heard of, Gryhnt Piro was a major aspect in lives of those who live around it. Its huge bridge spans two rivers (one of which is depicted), and has made travel over ‘through’ the bandit-infested forests that lay between them possible. Now left in the guard of a very few men, is still stands as a memorial of those grand times.

Mark Kelso’s Apocalypsis: A journey into darkness
Mark Kelso posted the story of the beginning of one man’s journey into the darkness. The pictures which feature actual LEGO goes beyond those of ordanary LEGO photographs. The editing casts an ethereal effect to the grandiose scenes depicted, and the story is worthy of reading as well. Follow the mysterious young man as he is lulled by an unknown force into the darkness of a cave buried inside the jungle. For those who enjoy a thought-provoking work, this is a rare treat.
You cannot stop Goldman...
…you can only hope to contain him. The great master of the diorama Keith Goldman presents his newest work in response to Shannon Young‘s new game of MOCtag. It’s a romantic scene about a hot babe and a “genetically altered super-checken” called Rory. Why am I not surprised?
Their love is as boundless as the sea and Keith’s infinite supply of bricks.
Space Ninja battle continues
The fight between the white and black space ninja continues in Shannon Young‘s third diorama of the battle (you can see the previous ones here). This time, it takes place in a factory powerplant with dangerous cliffs. This large diorama measures 109 studs wide by 36 deep and rises 60 studs high, that’s planty of space for backflips, walljumps, and other sweet ninja moves.
Heading out to the backcountry
Alex Eylar‘s longing to escape the reality of “the worst college quarter yet” takes him to look towards Disneyland, where this creation took inspiration from the Grizzly River Run ride, depicting “a ridge somewhere in the northern California wilderness, complete with tumbling waterfall and quasi-hippie river guides.”
Sinking of the Yamato
Christophe Bongay presents a comical diorama of the last seconds of Yamato combining a few of his previous creations. There are many unique aspects of this creation ranging from the block shark to the disproportional ship, which was originally built as a Metal Slug vehicle.
Fabuland crosses black fantasy
Jordan Schwartz’s (SirNadroj) fascination with the Fabuland theme is spreading its presence to everywhere. His latest work encroaches upon two themes of my world: surrealism and black fantasy. The result is something dynamically hilarious in my opinion. Nice work Jordan, way to bring the Fabuland happiness plague to the dark realm of interdimensional and biomechanical despair :)
Bandwagon mayhem
Adrian Florea (Olog) mashed together some of the curretly hot bandwagon themes into an action-packed diorama. Without scrolling down to the answers, what themes do you recognize?
Answers: cave racers, black fantasy, frogspace, post apoc, and fabuland
