Towns in the world of LEGO have everything cities in the real world do — police stations, fire engines, trains, hairdressers and veterinarians. Check out all the beautiful buildings and vehicles we’ve featured here on The Brothers Brick.

Desalination plant

Gilcelio Chagas from LUG Brasil is known for his miniland scale cars, but his recent model is something much different – a desalination plant made for an electrical engineering project. There are numerous details in the elements and custom decals, which you can appreciate in the Flickr set.

Do minifigs need haircuts?

Well, if they do, there’s a lovely barber shop on the ground floor of this terraced apartment building by Christer Nyberg.

The building has a complete interior, so don’t miss all Christer’s photos on Flickr.

Megastore

Alex Jones (Orion Pax) builds another excellent commission. This time it is for German Snipes Megastore opening in Cologne. You can take a look at all of the images on his website.

Bricking the Future

Buildingxyz (Michel Labelle) built his vision of the future home from LEGO. This is mid 21st century family house in California. I really like the house design and how Michel also equipped the whole interior with futuristic furniture.

Oui Oui

I find myself wanting to to grab a café au lait, a good book, and sittng on the patio outside Carson Hart’s French Café. True Carson’s building has no rocket engines, pew-pew lasers or cyborg co-pilots, but the amount of other awesome details more than makes up for it. I have always appreciated the amount of brilliant detail that builders put into such creations, and Carson certainly does have a lot of fantastic finishing touches.

Oh wait, maybe there is a cyborg co-pilot onboard…

On the Waterfront

This gorgeous and serene Fish Cannery (those are words not often heard) by Nathan shows off some great techniques and a good sense of artistic style. The color palette Nathan’s used is perfect to create the sense of calm, cold silence in this building based off architecture in the easternmost town in the United States.

Little Big Rig

Matija recently posted the results of when truck geniuses hang out. Well not only does that result in some pretty cool photos, but it also results in some pretty cool inspiration. Evan B ([Lego Junkie]) just so happens to be one of those that felt inspired, because he has posted a rather amazing minifig scale Peterbilt 379, complete with lowbed trailer and Caterpillar D10r Bulldozer.

The attention to detail is definitely some top notch stuff. Be sure to check out the rest of the pictures in Evan’s photostream!!!

This Mini is BIG on awesome

Alex D (Flak-Magnet) has just posted an absolutely adorable little Mini Cooper rally car. He has based the model design on Richard J Brown’s original. I have had a 5-wide Mini on my “to-build” list for ages now…this makes me want to build one.

The shapes and curves are acheived perfectly at this small scale. And just look how cool that roof rack is. Props to both Richard & Alex!!!

Anu puts brick bricks to good use

The 2012 LEGO City sets were the first to include the new “brick bricks” more than six months ago, but it’s only recently that LEGO builders have accumulated enough of the new element to build something substantial with them. Anu Pehrson treats us to a lovely modular building full of rich colors and wonderful details. The fluted columns on the second story are a great touch.

Breaking my break again. This time because of an amazing broken fence by Maciej Drwiega.

Dude...surf’s up!

I can just hear the noise in the background, with the waves, and sounds of people laughing, shouting, and generally having a fabulous time. Dave Ware‘s Surf Shack is just packed with little details that really bring it all to life.

Nature and modernity

Dave Kaleta‘s 1007 Mountain Drive drew a lot of attention at Brickworld 2012. This creation has both an intriguing overall design as well as individual fascinating details such as the swimming pool, porsche and more that you can see on Flickr.
