Taylor‘s dragon is no exception. The overall color scheme and texturing just work for this beautiful brick-built beast. I can’t decide if I either feel safe that this dragon is (theoretically) in my corner or threatened that it has a grudge against me.
Fantastic work!
Izzo says it’s raining today. We wish it would rain all the time where he lives, if this is the result the rest of us get to enjoy.
I always knew those crazy chickens in the backyard were up to something. Thanks to the clever mind of Angus Maclane, now I know and knowing is half the battle.
I’m astounded that this mecha by FateHeart manages to even stand up. The tank, or whatever it is, sticks even farther off the back than the jetpacks do, and looks cool at the same time. The dainty wheeled feet add to the off balance look, and the whole thing just works.
No, it’s not a new metal band, it’s the name of this clever use of LEGO by Rod Gillies (2 Much Caffeine). I assumed that it was a skeleton, but it’s apparently biomechanical. Regardless of whether it’s intended to be alieve or dead, or something in-between, I really enjoy the creation.
Rod has made great use of upside-down half arches along the spine, to give a great curved profile. Then there’s the use of large crenelated tower pieces as teeth, which is positively inspired.
Even though I’m a sucker for adorably squat hardsuits, there are only so many gray, greebly little fellows I can take after a while. This new design by Chris (Ironsniper) made me sit up and take notice.
There’s some nice color blocking with the brown arm, along with one of the coolest details I’ve seen on any hardsuit, even though that knife may be quite useless to a mechanized warrior. But it’s the posability built into the shoulders, knees, and feet that sets this hardsuit apart.
Dane Erland (Lord Dane) gives a very big gun to a tall mecha with tiny arms in a surprisingly effective combination that I wouldn’t want to face down on a dead-end street.
Théo (Titolian) has built a fantastic little robot. The fishing poles for legs add a great alien bug feel to this creation. He’s also named it in Morse code, which I’ve long forgotten.
By now it’s clear that the Terran units from Starcraft 2 are easiest to make out of LEGO. Sven Junga adds the marine to list of the community’s brick-built Terran units including the Battlecruiser, Thor, Viking, Banshee, Medivac, Siege Tank and more.
It’s a good thing I can counter marines with my banelings!
Sometimes a build doesn’t need to be complex to be awesome. It just has to be really well designed. Cade Roster (Apocalust) has achieved this state with his tributes to LEGO Exo-Force.
Portal 2
As a bonus, check out the multi-colored turrets by Ryan (L D M) inspired by this trailer.
I know nought about Iron Man but Alex Schranz (“Orion Pax”) was obviously a fan of the comic and has dedicated 55cm worth of ABS to recreating this armoured superhero. His dedication to recreating the ‘muscles’ on the figure really lend it a drawn air. And as an added bonus the light in the chest actually works. Superb building.
The keen-eyed will notice a slight difference between the most recent four shots and the rest.
