Mmmmm, Tuna

I'm no fan of sushi. And don't try to tell me "oh, you just haven't had good sushi" , because I've fallen for that before. I've been talked into it several times, and I've come to the conclusion that sushi simply isn't my thing. But I love tuna, and I love this MOC.

Cair Paravel

This is some first class building right here. This commission of one of the castles of Narnia designed by Paul Vermeesch is just stunning. It was built by elementary students and went from sketch to model in only a month!

Avell Castle

This is another entry into the Mini Castle Contest  over at Classic Castle, and it's lovely. I'm never certain about the intent of mixing old and new grays (when it happens at my house it's because of bad lighting and colorblindness) but it works well here. I especially like the towers and the supports for the bridge. Nice work Toltomeja. 

Crossing The Delaware

This MOC makes history pop off the page (pun by BiggerJim). I don't know what porschecm2 built this for, he calls it a "thing for a thing", but it's brilliant. It makes my inner patriot heart soar to see my favorite bricks reproducing such an iconic image. And having it in a book, inspired.
 

Full Moon Surprise

Here's a great little brick film to get you in the halloween mood.

Miniland Simpsons

This is so perfect! It's not always easy to capture a character's essence at miniland scale, but madoruk has done it. You knew the instant you looked at this who it was didn't you? Mission accomplished. I especially like Lisa, her silhouette is unmistakable. 

Dealin' Vinyl

When you heard a song you liked on the radio when I was a kid, this is where you went to get it (yeah, dating myself again). The first record I remember buying on my own was a 45 of "Jungle Love", but I also remember joining to the Columbia Record Club when I was nine and scoring "Meco Star Wars" for a penny!

Spooked Chicken

This MOC and buddy icon by Hen Peril cracks me up, and seems appropriate with halloween so close. I'm not sure what terrified this poor chicken, but it must have been something.

You Can Own Breaking Nerdly! (updated)

Simon Liu (Si-MOCs) has generously put his excellent entry into the Pimp My Nerdly contest up for auction to benefit Creations For Charity. For some reason he thought having me sign it would make it more appealing, go figure.  There's also some BrickNerd swag included! If you want to get your hands on this excellent MOC and support a great cause visit this link.

UPDATE: Sold! 

Obsidian Spike

This is a gorgeous MOC, beautifully photographed. All black creations are notoriously hard to shoot (tip: it's all about the reflections) but Zceberus nailed it. I love the undercut rock work and the overall proportions. This thing is loaded with detail too, click through for many more pictures.

Damselfly

I don't post a lot of digital creations here, but when they're as wild as this I've got to. This is the Dameselfly Assault Helicopter (although from the font selection it looks kinda like a "Helloopter, which is just as fascinating) . The outside-the-box thinking on this one is great, like sandwiching airplane cockpits, brilliant!

Creepy Crawly

They don't call him monster brick for nothing. Check out this latest supremely creepy arachnid from Matt Armstrong. Just in time for halloween! Now do you feel it? The crawly sensation on your leg? Go ahead, look, I'm sure it's nothing...

Exo-Suit!!!

This makes me so friggin' happy. My best mate across the pond is the next Cuusoo set! Pete Reid's outstanding Exo-suit is going to be available for everyone to enjoy, I can't wait to get my hands on it. Congrats Pete, it's well deserved! 

Robot Chicken

There are very few shows on TV that innovate, truly take chances and succeed consistently, but Robot Chicken is one of them. Yes, it's a bit juvenile, but it's also damn funny. This clever MOC comes from kashim_inc, and it cracks me up.

Hey DJ!

This is a dying art form, at least with two classic wheels of steel. I crack up whenever I pass a car with a "CD DJ'S SUCK" bumper sticker, but I have to agree somewhat. If you've ever listened to someone truly rock a setup like this, you probably understand as well. Nice build delta.triangle. 

Micro Castle and Village

I love a good micro scene, and this one is not only excellent, it's also on Cuusoo, so there's a chance we could all have one. The whole thing is broken into modules, so you can build slowly over time, or reconfigure however you like. The castle walls are actually only three components, very flexible and clever. It's got my support!

In The Pumpkin Patch

Halloween is just over a week away. I have some decorations out, there's a chill in the air and pumpkin spice tea in my cup. Discovering this MOC by schfio while browsing just made me smile.  

Go Yankees!

As many of you know I'm not much of a sports fan. I rarely watch any games, and I can't recall the last time I saw baseball being played. Maybe if the players used jetpacks and the ball was remote controlled it would capture my interest, I dunno. I dig this MOC though.

ÖRNEN Blå

LEGOLIZE IT MAN describes this as a micro scale cruiser Ma.k style. I just call it sweet. Any MOC successfully integrating a brick separator is impressive, but one that does it this nicely is just rare. I really dig the lines on this.
