Tag Archives: Vignettes

Vignettes are like the haiku of the LEGO world. Usually built on a base 8 studs wide by 8 studs deep, vignettes show a little scene or a moment in time. But like written poetry, there’s plenty of variation on the basic theme.

Block shark!

Christophe Bongay presents an innovative style of making a vignette – in a block! It’s creative, funny, and innovative, I like it.

Battle of Yin and Yang

Noddy depicts the clashing forces of Yin and Yang in a dynamic vignette. Check out the view from above, which cleverly forms the Yin Yang symbol (warning: may induce seizures).

There are two more similar vignettes created in the past. Check out Bruce’s Yin to my Yang and Moko’s White and Black.

Cleanup on aisle 3

Jarek‘s first little dio depicts an uncanny accident involving a forklift and what appears to be a dangerous nuclear waste bomb. This can’t be good, but what is good is the forklift model, which is so nicely constructed.

Rocko gets whimsical and naughty

If you’ve seen some of the flip side of Rocko‘s castle dioramas, you’ll know he sometimes builds things that make you smile or laugh. Checkout this sled chase for example.

This next creation does not need any explanation, but it may be interesting to know that despite many efforts, Rocko can never make it past the K in real life.

Kcaster doesn’t like snipers

Nick Dean (aka Kcaster) shows in a vignette how to deal with snipers, by taking them out with a bang! Sorry Camping Carl, you’ve been found.

Micro floating castle

Mumu‘s entry for the Original Model Contest was Mont Saint Michel, a microscale castle in the air. Imagine the view from up there; it must be great.
