But in his defense, it's his job. You can't have a robot with the designation "Killing Machine" and have it filling Twinkies or trimming toe nails. I love the chest on this robot, I've never seen this combination of parts and it works so well. The arms have an excellent amount of articulation as well. Nice work Master Beef (with fries).
Flickr user Moko delivers again with this awesome MOC of Alice and the white rabbit in wonderland. It's a great little anime take on a classic, and it's fantastic. Check out the details on Alice, and the rabbit's pocket watch, excellent.
Chris McVeigh continues to crank out these brilliant little works of brick art. At this rate he'll be able to open a one man show by next spring. I'll be in line, cash in hand.
There are few lifeforms in the sea more fascinating and adorable than the seahorse. And a brick-built seahorse is even more adorable. Yet another brilliant build inspired by Ironbuilder.
This is a cool little build. Reminds me of the twin pod cloud car, only not lame. Yes, I called a Star Wars ship lame, deal with it. Great use of the stretcher holder as a roll cage and a nifty, almost retro aesthetic.
This has got a great old school space vibe to it. It's hard to call it Neo Classic because of the color scheme, but I think Disco86 might be breaking new ground here. It's got an interesting back story too, always fun to see a builder put their MOC in context. I love the greenhouses, and that ship is pretty cool too. Nice work Paul.
Trophies are an art form in and of themselves. Especially when they can be themed and tell a story. It takes skill to do all that in a little form factor. This is a fine example, expertly rendered by Sean and Steph Mayo. Not that getting a trophy is the only reason to compete, but it's certainly a great reward.
For Immediate Release
In a move scientist types have called "suspiciously brilliant" Iain Heath has set a previously thought impossible value on the Squeemeter™. "With this MOC from possibly most bizarre animated shows ever seen, Bravest Warriors, Iain has broken new ground in squeetology" says Dr. Thatch Roofswell. Mr. Heath was unavailable for comment but we assume he would say something akin to "jolly good how's your father".
Holy amazeballs, look at this thing! I mean seriously, look at it. Click through for a bunch more pictures too. And now I have a strange need to screen Akira.
Whenever Ironbuilder is going you can be sure some great MOCs, like this awesome lighthouse by Gilcelio Chagas . The seed part is the 1x2 plate with angled handles, which makes makes excellent use as the catwalk around the top.
I'm posting this from San Diego Comic Con so it just seems fitting everyone's favorite bounty hunter should make an appearance. I really dig this bust of Boba Fett, and the addition of his rifle just completes it. I want a full series of these!
I will resist the temptation to be snarky on this post. This is a beautiful MOC depicting a national cemetery in France. It's so well done and so well photographed you would swear it's from the Architecture line from LEGO.
Here at BrickNerd we look back from time to time, even back to the 30's. Guy Himber brought us this charming and delightful cruiser. Sure there's some modified parts in there, but it's Guy, he's a perpetual tinkerer.
Doc Ock (and let's face it, all villains) need to shop like the rest of us. Those Steakums and Superpretzels don't just magically appear in the freezer. Xenomurphy is running a superhero contest on MOCpages and this MOC by Dave Kaleta is superb.
I played with Zoids as a kid. If I still had them I'd probably still play with them (don't judge me). With the Zoids contest happening on Flickr we've seen quite a few recently. I'd prefer all these were real bricks but I'll take the digital versions too, they still make me reminisce. Now would someone build Gore please?
The minstrel music plays and the crowd cheers as the king enters the square. Fresh baked goods almost masks the smell of the horses as they clomp by. Banners flutter in the breeze as the smiling subjects eagerly greet their king. I could go on and on, but all you have to do is look at these pictures to get the same story. This is how you assemble a scene, it's rich with detail and story telling. Nice work Teabox.
John Stephens has been feeding us a continual diet of awesome hors devours (get it? they're small!) for weeks. I've been waiting to post because...well, I'm not sure why. I guess I was waiting to see if they were going to be presented in group, I dunno. But I can't contain myself on this one. Maybe it's my fondness for cheeseburgers, or perhaps my affinity for retro, but I totally dig this MOC.
I remain blissfully ignorant of Chima (hey, what can I say, it does nothing for me) but I like this build. I do have a few Chima polybags and LEGO sent me a couple Speedorz to try out, so I'm not completely out of the loop. But I confess, I have no idea who this is. But check out the construction here, the expressive face, those beefy hands, that ready-for-action stance, this is cool.
San Diego Comic-Con is only a few days away. If you're attending I'd like to invite you to a panel, BrickJournal: LEGO as an Art Form. It's on Saturday at 5:00PM in room 23ABC. It features BrickJournal's Joe Meno, LEGO Artist and STUDS founder Brandon Griffith, world famous LEGO artist Nathan Sawaya and me (wait a minute, me?) Yes, for some reason I was invited to sit on this panel with three totally awesome AFOLs, go figure.

Monet painted his garden many times, exploring changes in color and time of day. Meredith Najewicz follows his lead, rebuilding the LEGO Art Water Lilies set with a darker palette and some creative part substitutions to cast the lilies in a different light.
