The RogueBricks Summer Contest is currently open for entries and this year's topic is "Steven Spielberg": I recreated scenes from three Spielberg movies as 16 x 16 studs vignettes, starting with Jurassic Park: Continuing with Jaws: And of couse there has to be an Indiana Jones scene: I hope you enjoy these little MOCs!
-
Ahoy! On a base of 16 x 42 studs, the LEGO pirates return - and so do their arch-enemies, the Imperial soldiers. I built this homage to the LEGO classic for Rogue Bricks' annual challenge.

I have to admit that I haven't been very active here in the past months, but I'm back now with a little ROTJ-Scene to celebrate 40th anniversary: Hope you all like this little vignette!
-
Thanks @TheScaryDoor 🙂!

@cdavidc29 There is enough space for one figure inside

Hello there! Starting with the photo: I wanted to build an AT-ST for quite a while already and now the monthly building challenge on another LEGO forum was about iconic vehicles from movies... well, the decision what to build was not very hard! I hope you like it...

Eurobricks' Licensed Cozy Corners Contest - The winners!
Justus replied to Clone OPatra's topic in LEGO Licensed
First of all, many thanks to all who entered and of course to the organisers of this competition! I had a lot of fun building my vignette for such a creative topic! And congratulations to Marcel - well-deserved first place! -
Eurobricks' Licensed Cozy Corners Contest - Entry Topic
Justus replied to Clone OPatra's topic in LEGO Licensed
A licensed topic vignette contest? Count me in! Wait, Star Wars isn't allowed??? I had some great fun working on the project - thanks for hosting that contest! -
Hello there everybody, a quick little project I wanted to share: Inspired by Adventurers, Indiana Jones and even Pharao's Quest, I built a little expedition truck... hope you enjoy it!
-
Thanks @Jack Sassy and @Bricky Steamboat! If you instantly recognize the Adventurers Car inspiration, that's the best praise I can get!
-
@Peppermint_M Thanks! Designing the truck bed actually took me far longer than I thought, but I am pretty happy with the outcome as well... so I think it was worth the time and effort!
-
Thanks @Feuer Zug!
-
@zinnn: Thanks! The yellow "collumns" are 1x1 clips (BL 15712), "clicked" into each other... definitely illegal
-
Again, many thanks for the positive feedback @Captain Braunsfeld, @LEGO Train 12 Volts and @BlackGloveBricks!
-
Thanks, @Jack Sassy! @Mister Phes: Well, the guy with the tricorne hat is supposed to represent an Imperial... the torsos of the old Imperial soldiers (973pb0527c01) from Pirates II somehow looked too old-fashioned to me and wouldn't have fit into the colour scheme of the MOC either. @Third Navigator: "Less pieces and more qualities" is always very important to me. My parts stock is still quite limited, so I have to try to impress people with small but detailed models...
-
Hello there! The trigger for this MOC were the 100 dark purple cheese slopes I ordered on Bricklink the other day - the rest of the model evolved via trial-and-error rather than with a plan in mind. Anyway, I hope you like it!

Thank you very much!

Hello there! The "Wandering Skies Contest 2022" inspired me to build a steampunk MOC: Polaris! In the days when the empire was small and the world young, travel was guided by the stars. There was Capella, Sirius, Procyon, Elnath and many more. But the brightest and most important among them was Polaris, the North Star. Lying high and far away, it served as a guide even in the most remote colonies of the south. But one night, when it was already late, its light ceased to shine. Knowing its importance, the reigning King Nemo III immediately ordered the sending of adventurers to bring back the light of Polaris. But none of them ever was able to reach this remote place. Finally, Captain Gideon Winterman was sent out with his ship, the Pertinax, and John Alistair Sparks, and after seven months they reached the star, which after them no man would ever again undertake. The North Star, however, threatened to crash for lack of energy, which would have lost it for good. Then, as the legend goes, the adventurers dismantled the Pertinax and with the left engine they were able to keep the dying star in the air. Winterman and Sparks, however, could no longer leave the island. Instead, Sparks constructed a beacon, brighter than any before, by taking the lens from the Pertinax's fog lamp and replacing it with a polished ice crystal and Polaris' light returned to the night sky. Henceforth, the adventurers lived in huts built from the planks of the pertinax. And so Two saved the empire by becoming the lighthouse keepers of the North Star themselves forever. But as long as Polaris' light is ignited every night, the members of the Explorers' Guild continue to await the return of Gideon Winterman and John Alistair Sparks, hoping for a way back not yet considered or discovered. I hope you enjoy the MOC, as well as my story for it. For photos of Winterman and Spark have a look at my Flickr.

This is getting out of hand, now there are three of them! Some of you might still remember this vignette: Now, I decided to make a series of Mandalorian MOCs. I noticed, that in every key moment of the show, there is a door in the scene. When we really see Mando for the first time, but also when we meet Grogu: And when they finally become "a clan of two"? There is the door with the iconic mythosaur in the background: So that's why I call it "Doors from The Mandalorian"... This is the way!
-
@MBricks Thank you! @TeddytheSpoon The Mandolorian? Not bad! @Mandalorianknight I was thinking about "door moments" in the second season... the door from the finale would be an option for sure! We meet Mando, Mando meets Grogu, they become a clan but then? (Spoilers for the Book of Boba Fett:)
-
Quite old, but I never posted this MOC: I never really liked the LEGO set (75207), so I built my own version - which turned out to be more difficult than expected because there is so little space inside the model. Anyway, it was a lot of fun to work on such a small but still detailed model and I am very happy with the result!
-
Oh no, that one was a photo of course... which is how I found out that this thing is so unstable. For the instructions, just send me your email via PM and I will send you the files for free .
-
@Vouatch: No, I am sorry, I only took one photo. But I made instructions! If you are interested, I can upload them to rebrickable.com, post a link here and you could even have a look inside the model. Although I have to warn you: it is the most unstable model I have ever built! You should propably not try to build it physically, it might be frustrating . For reference, I used the main photo from the Wookipedia page. The photo/rendering (?) was quite good for that!

Thank you everybody! @danielwerner I don't think so, sorry. Because of the stability issues, I don't think it would be worth the time. But I might do a stud.io model to "save" my work for further optimizations... If you want, I can send that to you. And there are some new photos: And there is a "crew" now:
