Dwarves Ready For Adventure

As anticipation of the second chapter the The Hobbit, several MOCs have been appearing. But few are as phenomenal as these. Bombur, Bofur and Bifur look ready for some serious adventure. You do realize Pate-keetongu, than now that you you've made this many, you're obligated to make the entire party, right? (and I can't wait to see it)

"Good Luck, And May The Force Be With You"

What better way to start off a Friday than with a cool little Star Wars MOC. This isn't the greatest photo, but I really dig these micro scale X-Wings by Miro78. The use of the doors as wings and the printed round tiles is inspired. The nose is a little funny, maybe just a cheese slope would have worked. And before anyone comments, I know and I'm sure Miro knows that the S-foils would not be in attack position while in landing mode.

3 are better than 1

Coastguard Cutter

Being a California native, the coastline is part of my life, and I'm thankful for the service of the men and women of the Coastguard. This MOC by  mmbace captures the cutter perfectly, including the iconic red stripe at the front (brick-built even!). This ship is one of the coolest in all the branches, usurped only by the Navy hovercraft fleet in my opinion.
