After seeing an earlier work in progress, I’ve been eagerly anticipating this lovely steampunk sculpture by Guy Himber (V&A Steamworks).
The expression on the moon’s face is priceless.
Guy’s HMS Brown Widow, aka “The Flying Rivet” displays his usual attention to detail, with sections of LEGO tubing as rivets on the trailing edge of the wings.
This burning skull by Billy McGill is quite striking! I’ve seen a lot of interesting shapes made out of the flame pieces, but this is something special.
Angus MacLane has created an incredibly accurate LEGO version of one of the main characters from Pixar’s latest feature film, “Up“. From the bulbous nose and jutting jaw, to his green-footed cane and bowtie, this is perfect! Of course, what else do we expect from Angus?
For more about Angus and Pixar check out our interview, as well as his interview in the current issue of BrickJournal. BrickJournal also has instructions for a LEGO BURN-E that Angus designed for the crew of the movie. Those of you paying attention to the credits during BURN-E will have noticed that Angus directed this wonderful short feature.
“Up” opens in theaters on May 29th….don’t forget!
Matija Grguric worked for almost a year and a half to make a minifig scale model of the Art Pavilion in Zagreb, Croatia. This massive creation measure around 150 cm long, 85 cm wide and 90 cm high. The display renders the intricate details of the original structure, and the crafting of the roof is particularly skilled.
The model will be displayed at BrickWorld, where attendees will be able to see this amazing work in person.
Dirk has recreated one of the most famous sculptures of Ancient Greece, the Venus De Milo.
This replica is half-size, but Dirk says that he would like to build a full-scale version some day.
Joris Blok gets all nostalgic with his latest creation, a replica of the famous Wico Red Ball controller for the Amiga.
He also posted a 20th anniversary tribute to Nintendo’s GameBoy…

Not quite as elaborate as the full anatomy of a minifig, this brick-built version by Billy McGill (Mt.Dew Monkey) is equally impressive.
Dave and John Xandegar have built a LEGO sculpture of the classic SEGA character Sonic the Hedgehog.
Sonic us even posable — he can move his head, feet, left arm, and left hand.
Dirk VH (dm_meister) has created a large-scale sculpture of Strong Bad from Homestar Runner.
Dirk even added details like the lacing on the back of Strong Bad’s luchador mask, along with photos of the internal structure that keeps LEGO Strong Bad…strong.
See more photos of Strong Bad in Dirk’s photostream on Flickr.
Chis Wunz built this incredible rose as a present for his wife, Erin.
Way to go, Chris, now Rachel wants to know why I haven’t built one for her…thanks a lot. ;)
