The Age of Light Starship by ROOK has interesting visual details like the studded fins and neon “whiskers,” making you wonder what they’re used for. There’s also an array of support crafts for this SHIP.

Great Visibility!
This little space ship by /ˈɛlˈdiːˈɛm/ really delivers the whole package. It has an interesting shape, sleek angles, and a popping color scheme. What really sets it apart, though, is the canopy. It’s a face mask for Buzz Lightyear, and an odd shaped piece to work with.

Prometheus unbound
Rob (dasnewten) solidifies his place among LEGO builders as the “master of angles” with this excellent microscale frigate inspired Studio Nue and Kazutaka Miyatake.
G.A.I.A. – HMS ‘Relentless Fire’
This microscale combat cruiser by Jon B. (Heiwa71) has a solid balance of colors and details to satisfy a spacer’s cravings for a SHIP (which I have not seen many original concepts as of late). The hangar bays are my favorite spots on this creation. The full gallery can be found on MOCpages.
Sail away to your new home aboard the North Central Positronics Colonial Fleet
Mike Yoder has his own corporate entity reminiscent of Black Mesa from the Half-Life universe and Weyland-Yutani from the Alien franchise. North Central Positronics is a shadowy, semi-military organization with heavily defended bases on earth and a full-fledged fleet in space. Mike’s latest addition includes a pair of cargo barges, a pilot ship, and several heavy fighters.
Garry King’s Battlestar Valkyrie
I’ve made an association of the name Garry King with gigantic Lego Battlestar Galactica ships. Garry’s latest is the Battlestar Valkyrie, flying in at over 10 feet and containing exactly 42,341 pieces (wow, really?). Check out MOCpages for more photos and additional facts about this ship.
A bed just the right size
LegoBucket puts a spacefaring twist on a classic fairytale with this scene, in which a spaceman finds a comfortable place to lay his weary head. Little details like the plant on the dresser, hat on the smallest alien, and gloves on the floor make the scene.
Terrorism on Mars!
Everybody loves Octan. Well, maybe not the Lunar Separatists, as Mark Stafford (lego_nabii) shows in this lovely diorama.
The Martian strata is particularly excellent, but the checkered stripe on the roadway is another great touch.
A Wind From the Past
This speeder bike by Keith Goldman (La Villa Strangiato) may have been built and posted in December, but it’s still worth noting. I only wish I’d spotted it when Keith first posted the lovely shot. The bike itself is quite stylish, but I think we can all agree that the photography and lighting really set it apart. The wake behind the bike, in particular, is just lovely.
They Came in Waves
Sandcastles are tempting targets, no matter where in the universe you are, as Bart De Dobbelaer shows in this humorous vignette. Take note of his great use of the microfigs from the Lego games for bits of the sandcastle, and of course the aliens from Series 6 and Alien Conquest.
Cole Blaq’s Cloaked Tomeikoma Is Clearly Impressive
Every time I look at Cole Blaq’s photostream on flickr, I am blown away, with no exception this latest time. I’ve been seeing a lot of Tachikomas and their variants lately, including Cole’s own huge Think Tank, which we featured last month. But Cole Blaq wasn’t content to simply follow the norm with this model: this iteration appears fully cloaked, made entirely out of trans-clear pieces.
EDIT (AB): Cole posted this as part of the Marchikoma Think Tank challenge — I was just waiting for something this awesome to highlight the contest. ;-)
Hikari gunship by nabii
When Mark Stafford isn’t busy designing LEGO sets or baiting Justin Bieber fans, he builds awesome stuff like this Hikari gunship. From the tiny guns up front to the massive engines in back, the gunship looks prepared to retake Earth from the insectoid horde.
I especially like the mix of red and white Technic. Mark gets bonus points for getting the name of the vehicle to match up accurately with the Kanji character — “hikari” means “light” in Japanese.
