Hey all, I've been wondering if anyone has any suggestions on how you could easily create some sort of lego "scrapbook" to store/sort ideas/tecnhiques/inspiration etc. For example, if I see a MOC with a good/interesting style of rock-work, I'd like a way to save it somewhere to build up a collection that I can come back to if I want to build something similar in the future. I would also build up separate collections for things like trees, stone walls, space greebling etc. Does anyone do something like this already, or could suggest a tool/website that may be useful for this? I know I could just save the images to my computer, but that seems a very clunky way of doing it. Pinterest comes to mind, I guess I could have a separate "board" for each category. Any thoughts?

Hi all, As I was back at home with my Lego collection over Christmas, I thought I'd have a go at building something relevant to my other interests: one of the Voyager probes! (Wasn't sure if it should go here or in the Technic/Model team forum, seems to fit both really).

There are a few bits I might do differently if I were to rebuild (particularly the angle of the main dish, and a few of the other little details) but very happy with how it turned out.

Thanks for the comments :). A thought I'd stick to a winter-village-ish colour scheme than traditional lighthouse colours. I did try the lights with 1x1 round plates, but decided I preferred the round bricks as lanterns instead.

Hey all, here's my entry to the Winter Village contest: The Winter Village Lighthouse! The tree is going up and the presents have just arrived (although I wouldn't like to comment on the safety implications of adding lots of coloured lanterns to a lighthouse!).
