Last Stand on Argoth

I might not be able to tell stormtrooper from clonetrooper but I can recognize a good SW creation. Here’s one.

Last Stand On Argoth

Eurobricks member Pedro created this for a SW contest held there. Creation was voted the winner of a “bignette” category.

Szarikm turns 24

Szarikm, one of the three magnificent LUGPol admins turned 24 yesterday. He celebrates it with barbecue vignette.

Happy birthday, Szarikm!

Port Antonio

Here’s my latest work: Port Antonio.

It’s a Pirate Port and it’s called Port Antonio. This is due to my trip to Jamaica (honeymoon) where the city of Port Antonio is located. There wasn’t a pirate port there (but there was a big one in Port Royal), but I liked the name, so I adapted it to my creation..

This port has a Inn with a bar, two bedrooms and also a warehouse with a working crane. All the roofs can be pullout and the rooms can also be detached. This turns the MOC even more playable.

Even the pirates need to take a bath once in a while…

Poohsticks

SlyOwl  portrays the servants of evil playing the poohsticks. Cute:

Car or Girl?

Lino Martins arrived with his new car model, 57 Pontiac Safari, as he says “commisioned” by his girlfriend Sue (also modelled, on the right):

I wonder: which model is cooler? Girl or car?

Puerto Rodrego… Never will you find a more wretched hive of scum and villany

SlyOwl explores the Pirate theme with this very interesting Puerto Rodrego diorama:

Puerto Rodrego

We can see some great details here;

  • The shed’s roof done with the tread links
  • Domestic violence scene
  • Ingenious pipes smoked by gentelmen inside the building
  • Wavy water!
  • Seagulls
  • And I wonder what that guy will be doind with the sheep….

BTW,  I have stolen the title of this post from Eurobricks….

EDIT: I turns out that “Scum and villainy” phrase is actually a quote from Star Wars!

The Millyard Experience

Ever since I saw the photos of the Millyard Project exposition I wanted to go there. Unfortunately, this largest minifig-size LEGO object in the world is located in Manchester, NH, USA which is on the other side of the ocean. And I’ve got a loooong way to the closer shore of the ocean. It seemed impossible to see it.

Millyard

But even the wildest dreams come true.  Recently I went to US for business and realized that my company’s office is located in the building just next to the SEE Science Center! I forfeited my lunch break and spent some time just staring at the beautiful streets of Amoskeag.

I shot a lot of pictures, so I invite you to take a virtual tour of the Millyard. And remember to see it in person, when possible.

Olympic, the Stormtrooper way

Alan Chia (713 Avenue) pursues an olympic photo project similar to Jarod’s, but one major thing is different. All minifigs are stormtroopers!

Bizznizz’s Dreadnought

Nunoyo Bizznizz (if this is a real name, then this is sooo cool!) built a nice model of Warhammer 40k Dreadnought:

Just take a look at the head - awesome use of this part.

Olympics, the LEGO way

Olympic games are the inspiration for the very interesting photography project run by Flick user Jarod_Uses_Film. Each day he posts one really great olympic-related photo.

I have trouble selecting three of them to showcase here, so I urge you to check out Jarod’s photostream right now. Go!
