Don’t have time to grow and care for some flowers? Do what JDavis did. Build ’em!
You can should check out their other sculptures too. There’s some really nice stuff in there.

Mrs. Monster has produced a tribute to everyone’s favorite cartoon alien, Marvin the Martian. This reminds me of . . . college, there was a guy in my dorm who wore nothing but Marvin the Martian t-shirts, he had at least a dozen.
Thanks to James Shields for the tip.
Skipping the phrase that comes afterwards, we bring you to Dirk VH‘s brick-built Kenny from South Park, complete with axe in head and the resulting gore effects.
As part of the National Train Show on July 10-12, 2009 in Hartford, CT, Jamie Berard, set designer of the newly released ‘Emerald Night’ and employee of The LEGO Group (TLG), will participate as part of the show. Jamie will be giving a talk on both July 10 and 11 (Fri. and Sat.) about the design process and thinking that led up to the final ‘Emerald Night’ set, and about the Power functions components that support it. Fans are encouraged to participate to offer their views on the new platform. Jamie will also be available during the show for any questions you may have about his other excellent creations – Fast Flyer, Cafe Corner, Cool Convertible, Green Grocer, and newly announced Grand Carousel.
Also as part of this year’s show, Steve Witt, LEGO Community Relations Coordinator for North America, has graciously offered to host the traditional ILTCO pizza party at LEGO corporate headquarters in Enfield, CT after the show on Sat. July 11. Along with pizza and hanging out with Steve, Jamie and some of the LEGO Master Builders from Enfield, other events such as tours of the model shop and parts of the campus will occur. All AFOL train show participants are invited to attend.
Posting a heads-up for those on the East Coast of North America. If the pictures of past NMRA shows are anything to go by this promises to be a very impressive display of LEGO.
Danny Rice (Big X) has built one of the adorable playable characters from the Xbox Live Arcade game Castle Crashers. The eyes on Danny’s Red Knight are excellent.
As a Wii owner, I’ve been feeling a little bit abandoned lately — no, Nintendo, I don’t want to play yet another incarnation of Wii Sports. And Wii Fit?! Are you kidding me?
These LEGO Pikmin creations by Filip Felberg (also on Flickr) made me smile, though, thinking back to those happy weeks in the summer of 2001 when I worked on Pikmin.
Filip has made Dwarf Bulborbs:
…as well as the game’s iconic little creatures:
Check out dozens of Filip’s wonderful LEGO Pikmin creations on Flickr and MOCpages.
This rusty grenade by Victor Vitale is da bomb. No, really, it is! The color scheme really works well and using a keychain ring is very clever. My question is whether a rusty grenade more or less safe than a new shiny one?
Ryan Wood proposed via this giant LEGO ring. Pretty cool idea, if you ask me. This happened back in 2006, but Ryan just posted new and improved pics.
His lovely wife, Katie, built this cool mosaic of their wedding.
She displayed it at BrickCon 2007, but I don’t think we ever blogged it.
Billy McGill just built a giant version of the LEGO monkey for his niece. I’ve always liked this monkey…now why didn’t I ever think of doing this?
With Josie sitting next to me while I eat cheese puffs, I would probably be licked into submission if I didn’t blog Joel Baker‘s adorable pair of dachshunds — one real, one LEGO.
