Stefan’s (-2×4-) Battlestar Galactica hanger, comparable to ChiefLUG’s, is an impressive display for a one man build. The tiles on the dividers add a nice texture to contrast with the smooth floor and wall.

Exploring the void of space
Chris Parkinson built an impressive SHIP over the course of eight months called the Resource Scout, designed as an exploration vessel to find new resources.
The picture above is actually a render, but the real photo can be found here. To see more pictures including the construction process, visit the gallery on Flickr.
One small step for man...
…one giant leap for a minifig. Mikael (CopMike) celebrates the 40th anniversary of the moon landing with this simple but iconic build of the first step on the moon.
What you can build if you have 100 blue droid arms
Oh, and talent like Adrian Florea‘s.
The droid arms are connected to blue flex-tubing, giving the repeated element an excellent curve.
What is it with Australians and cybernetically enhanced trolls?
Among the many interesting things that eclectic (and talented) builder Karf Oolhu has posted recently is this brave troll, complete with both Gatling and ray guns.
As always, that’s not the only interesting thing in Karf’s photostream. I love this microscale fuel refinery abuzz with activity.
A Cambrian Explosion from Shannon Ocean
As the LEGO Flattery Challenge demonstrates, it’s sometimes fun to try building in another person’s distinctive style.
Shannon Ocean has recently posted several LEGO Space creations in Crimso Giger’s Zorg Empire theme.
I love the Zorg tank, with its series of wheels at decreasing sizes, and the smaller scout on the left is lovely and creepy.
We have liftoff!
Taidan Raptor
There are too many castle creations on the front page of this site right now. I had to add some more space.
Fortunately, Stefan (Brainbikerider) built this lovely Taidan Raptor inspired by the Homeworld games. The color blocking is fantastic, as is the shaping on the cockpit area. There’s some great brick-work in that area. While I personally wish that it wasn’t such a straight line overall, I can’t argue with results like this.
Just funny
I’m not advocating a particular political position in the epic (imaginary) Classic Space vs Star Wars battle, this is just funny. Day 197 by Ken (KWG73) is titled “A Good Kicking.”
Ken’s been doing a regular 365 day photo project on flickr in which he displays great photographic skill, but during the last several weeks he’s been icing the cake by using more and more of his classic space figs. They started off just romping in a bowl of M&M’s, but have moved on to bigger and better things.
Photos of his visit to the abandoned Bangour Village Hospital are also good for inspiring post-apocalyptic creations. (Shout out to Josh’s Northern State Hospital photo set).
Space Police 2 Rides Again
Uspez Morbo has built a decidedly aggressive upgrade for the old Space Police 2 line. I absolutely love the angles on the wheel mounts, and the layout is great too. He’s modernized the old jail cells, but they still retain the general feel of the old ones.
I’m not sure yet how to feel about the lever arms on the wheel coverings, though. Are they spikes? Is it furry? They’re certainly interesting.
Are we about to see a Neo Space Police 2 fad? That seems like a bit of a long name…
