MOC: tuning my calendar 2014

[ptLeskinen]

Hello all,

decided to tune my LEGO calendar. Done this few times last year.

I thought that putting up topic would force me to do it monthly.

JANUARY:

Really little snow in southern Finland but really cold month. Hoth was on my mind daily.

FEBRUARY:

Yes, the Movie. Waiting for it like no other. Unfortunately only dubbed version coming out, but they can't ruin it since it is LEGO anyway.

Santa's head is from my maxifigures. Should open a topic on those some day.

Lets see what March brings.

[Ridge Montante]

Very cool project. Look forward to seeing the upcoming months.

[LEGO Guy Bri]

Agreed! This looks very fun. I will have to check back this year

[Onebear86]

That is really cool! And I thought my calendar mod was cool...

[ptLeskinen]

MARCH:

Little googleing and March actually originates from Roman god of war: MARS. Well just completed tv-series Spartacus from Netflix and I came up with this:

This is my favorite one yet! I should try something like this, I have 6 Roman soldiers and a commander, not to mention a gladiator, so it should be fairly easy...

[CamelBoy68]

That's a splendid idea, I'll have to think about this....

[CamelBoy68]

Well I thought about it and as I'm suffering from a BURP addiction (see my other post), I came up with this one.

I had to drop off two bricks in the centre column, as they obscured the month brick.

I finally got myself a Lego calendar a week ago and already thought about how boring it was going to be to look at the same color scheme month after month. This is a great idea.

Furthermore, after seeing your March display, I might just have to do April as Game of Thrones...

[eurotrash]

Excellent thread, full of some great ideas. I'm looking forward to the remaining months!

[ptLeskinen]

APRIL: (late, I know)

Our LUG biggest expo is coming! Build up on 10th.

Here

to last years build up timelapse video.

No time left...

Maybe some kind of Easter update later, IF I survive this crunch time.

I finally got myself a Lego calendar a week ago

And because of this thread I am going to buy one

Nice work here!

[Steph 104th]

Some Great Work, cant wait to see what May brings.

May the fourth be with you!(hint)

[ptLeskinen]

Late update, more Easterish...

Our LUG exhibition went well again.

This Model Expo is combined with Children Expo and attracts more than 45 000 visitors. Our LEGO booth is one of the highlights.

Here is a

to video run around our main table, thanks to Hovinet group.

Now I have to start with MAY (4th).

[ptLeskinen]

MAY:

No surprises here, it has to be SW.

"I am your father"

"Oh, I my father cut my hand and I am still smiling...."

Enjoy your May The Fourth!!

[KCMatze]

Wow! Really great ideas in this calendar thread. Absolutely stunning builds ptLeskinen! Star Wars scene is the bomb!

[ptLeskinen]

JUNE:

Summer is here! Scene of someone jumping in a lake came to my mind first. White calendar numbers in columns made finnish birch trees.

Ok finally this group of two men and two women sort of brings "lake Bodom murders" up...since I live close to this infamous lake.

This scene is from the early evening (with the midnight sun) when all was ok.

Next morning only one of the guys were alive. (can you find a knife from the picture?)

Have a nice summer!

[camberry234]

Nice! I like how you made the birch trees

[Kivi]

This is so cool and ingenious! Now I see that I will have to assemble my calendar which I have kept MISB for more than a year.

I will definitely stay tuned for the remaining months.

[KCMatze]

Knife is under the yellow 'triangle' (tent?!)

Nice build, really like the water with all those loose round studs!

JULY:

Football (Soccer) World Cup is under way. I hope to see Holland in the final but unfortunately I didn't have correct parts in orange.

Referee clearly sees something I don't but thats part of football culture, right?

Enjoy the games, I will.

Huh, congratulations, great ideas and even more important superb executions. I love July, January and May (great arrangement btw), but March is my favorite! Great action happening in there! So, as the others, I am looking forward to see how the rest of the year will unveil.

AUGUST:

Many birthdays in my family:

SEPTEMBER:

No time for calendars, only "shiptember" for me this time.

OCTOBER:

Bitte schön!

Noch ein Bier.

August + October: wow! :D

NOVEMBER:

the official facial hair month... I am all for helping to raise awareness of men's health issues, such as prostate cancer and other male cancers, and associated charities.
