So here is a project Ive had for awhile and finally decided to share it with you guys and get some input! I originally intened to make so you could wear it, but I got halfway through and released my head was a little big in one spot. Oh well, all leave that for the second one. Here it is from the front, I used a 1 x 10 piece to create the gap between the face plate and the helmet.

I try not to turn to outside sources much for my builds, but when I have to do them solely on Digital Designer, at first, for the cost I find myself wanting help and encouragement. Pixels are much less satisfying than actual plastic. So, here is my latest airship. It is quite a departure to some of my other stuff, being much bigger in scale. Please tell me what you think. I need to know if it's worth continuing or if I should scrap it. The problem with it, really, is the cost of actual bricks. I would love any advice on how to finish it and also on if it's worth the price (I estimate it will be +100 US dollars). Comments/Criticism Appreciated!

So... Just why did I build this? It all started because we were going on a 14 day New Year’s cruise to Hawaii with 10 at sea days, just at sea, no land, just the ship... What was I going to do? I immediately thought of LEGO! I have been wanting to build a MOD of the Grand Emporium to make a 16 wide, hmmm... sounds possible, but what else is in my closet waiting to be built? I looked and saw several Prince of Persia sets and I really liked the colors, so maybe something based on the colors, those dark tans, light tans, white and gold. Great colors, so maybe I want to do something with those colors. Where to start? I looked up MODs of the 7573 and found this mosque http://www.eurobrick...showtopic=47068 using 2 7573’s and I really liked the modularity, colors and the fact that it was a 16x16. I also found this MOC Modular: PoP Hangout at: http://www.flickr.co...hoto_4929709781 and I thought about what I liked about the 10190 Market Street. I decided to make a building according to the Modular Specifications, a 16x16 with an open air market area like the Market street. I ordered another 7573 (for parts) and started to pack. In the end I packed baggies of parts from 2 7573 (Battle of Alamut) and 1 7571 (Fight for the Dagger). I figured this would be enough parts as I was going to be in the middle of the Pacific Ocean without access to my inventory, so that was all the parts I was going to have. Fortunately we were driving to the port, so weight was not an issue with luggage, and being on a cruise space was not as much an issue as a flight to somewhere. I first decided to build the Battle of Alamut just to see what it looked like and get an idea on how some of the parts were used in case it would be of some help to me. So on my first “at sea” day I assembled the Battle of Alamut (no photos, we all know what it looks like. I then disassembled sorted all the pieces from all the sets into large food storage bags and claimed 2 of the 3 drawers in the desk for my LEGO project. The building is a “free build” no LDD, just from my head to brick. We know how that goes... You get an idea, put it together, take it apart and put it back together again several times until you get what you wanted. In order to take photos and avoid a bunch of reflections I had to use a couple of bed pillows as background. Here is the result...

We carefully packed each floor in a separate large plastic bag with lots of padding (socks and whatnot) to try to minimize damage, and just in case, at least each floor would be in a separate bag so I could identify parts for each floor more easily.

I can’t decide if I should keep to my original challenge and only use the parts from the sets I took with me, or maybe use additional parts as well... This is my third MOC, and the first I have published on EuroBricks in this detail, so C&C are welcome any ideas are appreciated. If you want to see more at my Flickr http://www.flickr.co...s/74992335@N05/ Here is my stream. Thanks, Andy D

Hey everyone! Hawken Just had a big Beta Event for the weekend so I fianlly got off my butt and got some game time in, had a blast! Between this and Mech Warrior Online looks like we'll have lots of Mech goodness for sometime! Hawken has a great Aesthetic so naturally it got my creative juices flowing! I had been having a good run with the Rocketeer mech, so I designed this guy based on it(or at leat it's weapons) Had a lot of fun with this, Hawkens Aesthetic and my Dense Building style meshed really well and I'm really liking hte overall size I got here, big enough for figs but small enough to be able to (relatively) easily build more than one or two! I think I'll try to build something based on the Assault Mech next, I've grown attached to it's big square head! So hit me up with any C&C you guys have, but keep in mind that these won't be you average LDD MOC, these are built and colored with Actual Bricks in mind! There are NO Floating parts, NO iffy connections and NO Parts in un-produced Colors(mistakes still happen thought), just keep it in mind. Mike

Compact Uniknick design
Morj posted a topic in LEGO Technic, Mindstorms, Model Team and Scale Modeling
Somebody (legomuppet9) asked me to publish compact uniknick steering/articulation part (based on Mbmc design published in this post). Well, here you go. It's still untested in a finished truck, but no gear cracks or clumsiness under manually applied stress. Being a bit lazy now to build a truck around it, need inspiration. Obviously, the intended use of this center part is to connect battery and cab to the inner half of the turntable opposite to the steering motor (the front one) and to connect powered axles to outer (gray) halves of the front and rear turntables. P. S.: brickshelf folder with high-res here. -
Custom Elder scrolls V : Skyrim Scaled armour
Pyrovisionary posted a topic in Minifig Customisation Workshop
On the flickr community, There is a lego elder scrolls group. The group is starting to host an elderscrolls rpg. This isn't an advert, Merely an explanation as to why I molded it. This is the Scaled armor piece as seen in TES v: Skyrim. It is only a WIP of course But I thought that I'd share it. And here is the reference picture: -

Hello all, Just wanted to share my latest (first) MOC....Bowling! I was playing around with LDD for the first time today and whipped this up real quick. Very simple and I plan to add to it. I used SNOT for the lane itself, but I want to add a seating area. I'm having a little trouble trying to figure out how to transfer from the SNOT lane to a regular studs on top seating area. Comments, criticism, questions are all welcome.

Hi everyone! Having a day of (literally) nothing needing to get done, I decided to take advantage of the time and build myself a new modular building. I've incorporated some design inspiration from the Fire Brigade set. As a matter of fact, this building is made exclusively of parts from the Fire Brigade (save for the masonry [brick] bricks). So far this is only one floor. I'm not sure how high I will make it, but this is what I have for the time being: There is no interior. I don't do interiors. Locutis

As a Lego fan, I am slowly starting to enter some grey age again. I can easily without my bricks, but when sale hits in, I'm getting pumped up again. Last weekend I saw the Diagon Alley set for €99, quite a bargain you should say, but because of my 'grey age' I left it on the self. But ideas kept crawling through my mind to turn these buildings into some modular buildings. For inspiration, I browsed through the Google and stumpled upon this site with some photos of the Harry Potter Tour in London. So I opende up LDD and started building. As Ollivanders is one of the most iconic buildings of Diagon Alley, I started with this one. I'm really pleased with the round windows (and the door in between). But I got stuck on the roof, so it's just 10217's Ollivanders roof for now. Then I started with a rather common building for Diagon Alley, that I turned into Quality Quidditch Supplies. Here are some printscreens straight from LDD (should try that render plug in sometime soon to make the pics a bit more attractive) As you can see I used a lot of bricks that are actually in 10217, as I wanted to experiment with the bricks in the set (of course I'll add the required parts from my own collection) But I'm in doubt, does this moc have the potential to be brick build, if so I buy the official set this Saturday, or should I just leave it with the LDD.. In any case I would like to have some feedback on the build itselfs, especialy on the rooftops and the best colour for the Quidditch shop to go with the green. Thanks in advance

Layout Latest Updated 24/10/2012: Image of the progress so far: Full report in latest post here: http://www.eurobricks.com/forum/index.php?showtopic=66901&st=25#entry1416038 Original Post: Not going to bore you too much with a detailed post (unless you really want it). I have a building space in my office and I am going to be building a large City scene, using City sets and then using the same techniques used in the sets to build extra elements to make a full scene. I am using LDD to plan the build and I am doing it stages, after building a stage on LDD I will then purchase parts I need, photograph it and move on to the next stage. Stage One - Is the Lego City Marina, I have built the Marina on LDD (This is first time I have used LDD was building the Marina). Stage one has an area of 4 32x32 base plates wide and 2 back and will have 9 official sets built in it or on it. For further detailed info visit: http://brickfanatics...o-city-project/ Here are is the LDD Concept image: Update 1 includes more LDD images: http://www.eurobrick...dpost&p=1241062 Update 2 Building progress of the Marina plus the extension of the dockside: http://www.eurobrick...dpost&p=1250434 Update 3 Major update, beach, surf shack and much more completed as well as new to do list: http://www.eurobrick...dpost&p=1301988 Update 4 Marina entrance complete with pavements done and loads of minor features added: http://www.eurobrick...dpost&p=1351763

Hello everyone, finally more creations of mine after I moved into my new apartment with its nice big basement room – this time it's a completed section of a snotted street and the wall between it and the lakeshore: ...wih my well-known houses in the back. Note that "officially", the walls would be solid without the big openings. But I need them so I can reach the trains that will be parked on the hidden tracks behind the wall. Without cars: Close-up with tram tracks: "Officially", the tram line is to be imagined to enter from the right, turn right into the narrow street, take a loop around the block and re-enter from the left, then exit to the right. However, since I'll try to make a motorized tram, I want it to drive just the loop around the buildings – hence this curve. I forgot to print the bike sign on the road and the parking ticket machine for the other photos, so here they are only on this one: I actually tried to make a mosaic with bricks (tiles, cheese slopes) for the bike sign, but didn't manage to build one at that size that also looks good, so here's a printed sticker only... Close-ups of wall and shore – I'm wondering if I made it a bit too old-looking... There are some statues: Freddie Mercury, an exotic queen and a mirror-like droid: Also a piper whose music isn't loved by everyone, and a strange procession: Now what are these guys doing there? That's what the reporter's asking, too, so let's listen in: "So who are you guys?" "We're the local FOOLOO cult – that's Followers Of One Long Orange Object." "I see. And why are you worshipping this... thing?" "Well, erm, it's long, it's orange..." – worshippers murmur "ooooraaaaange" – "...and it comes from the God of Separation. We worship him this way in order to ask him to separate what we want to be separated, and to keep together what we want to remain together. Do you want to join?" "Erm, no, thanks..." And a look at the entire room: On Flickr, there are more photos, including the backside of the wall, the underside of the road, and from setting up the tables. Comments, suggestions, ...? :)

I just visited my local toy store and was pleasantly surprised that almost all LEGO Games sets were on big discount. So I decided to pick up a few to make a modular mostly out of the sets. The shopping list consists of: - 5 Minotaurus. 8 euro each - 2 Ninjago, 10 euro each - 1 City Alarm, 5 euro (it was the only one) - 1 Lunar Command, 8 euro (ditto), 271 pcs - 1 Heroica Fortaan, 10 euro - 1 Heroica Nathuz, 8 euro This all for a total sum of 91 euro's! For 2584 pieces, including 5 green and 1 gray 32x32 baseplates and 114!!! microfigures! So I thought, what better way to get rid of all those hideous microfigures than to build a modular store for them to be sold. I hope to post some pics of the progress during the weekend. Comments and requests are welcome!
