  1. There's no restrictions on creation date. But presentation matters so if you've already created something that fits the contest, work on showing it the best way possible. Follow those photography tips!
  2. Thanks! The submissions are coming in already and I hope to see some from Eurobricks members too. Lots of talent here!

  4. Any 8-bit farmers in here? I just shared my Stardew Valley Farmhouse project on LEGO Ideas and would love your support: vote for Stardew Valley Farmhouse The farmhouse in the early years (no house upgrades) with starfruit, melon, and radish crops growing. Shane's blue chicken is out front! An overhead view of inside the farmhouse (kinda like how it is in the game view). There's a Light Brick in the fireplace that's activated by pushing a bale of hay with Sebastian's frog friend on top. The back of the house has some maple trees with tappers and some of the farmer's tools. If you've got ideas for Easter eggs or other feedback, please leave them for me on the LEGO Ideas project page and I'll reply! Thanks for looking!
  5. Here you go (I know I need to create some searchable repository somewhere. I have over 60 custom minifigures. Probably will do it on YouTube.)
  6. Thanks! I teach LEGO photography and that photo above is covered on my YouTube channel, but I have multiple lights set up there.
  7. Made from Aloy parts (hair and torso) and Viking Ship parts mostly. Sheepskin rack (inspired by Marin Brick Design) Tent MOC by Marin Brick Design on Rebrickable
  8. Same, I find these really boring and the rabbit recolor useless. Saves me trips to LBR stores for the next several months it seems.
  9. All over my socials but here's a photo on its new shelf
  10. @BlackGloveBricks Thanks! I've updated it and it's a lot bigger now with 8 buildings.
  11. Thanks so much to Eurobricks for hosting this contest! And a big thanks for your votes for my medieval fantasy minifigs. They've been quite busy these days: Big congrats to theme winners! I really enjoyed looking at entries (and hoping along with you that TLG makes them realities one day).
  12. Thanks @DBlegonerd7! I've updated it here with a render (I'm missing a few bricks IRL): https://www.instagram.com/p/CizFeHlIwG6/ I'll post a real photo on Flickr and share again here after I find some I can use.
  13. @Josh06 The premade BaM characters are relatively new. When BaM started getting exclusive parts, they were just that: parts. Now there is some configuration for the newer BaM and there's far less need for the "Build" part of the Build-a-Minifigure experience. A quick search will bring up the handful of "seasons" or quarters or whatever that The LEGO Group started doing premade minifigures.
  14. @natesroom I may add depth later when I have more spare bricks. I'm only building with what I physically have on hand (and without taking apart other builds) so I have that restriction. The torsos are from Series 9 and 22.
  15. @SirBlake Thanks! The faun's gotta have the panpipe! @Clone OPatra Exactly! I really can't use the interiors of lots of my City buildings and only ever display the facade anyway. Only sometimes will I build out a set like the old Sanctum Sanctorum. Thanks for the kind comments!
  16. Aren't all barber-surgeons nuts? 😂 They dug into rotten teeth to kill "the worm" inside! Thanks! Me too! I'm just trying to keep my love of LEGO alive without crowding myself out of my own home 😂
  17. Hello! This is my contest entry for Theme and Minifigure Lineup. I had a great time creating these and will be adding buildings to it as I go so I can have a little medieval street on my shelf. I'll probably tweak these MOCs over the next few weeks to add stability and details but one of my restrictions is to not BrickLink 😂 I'm sure I could have kept the parts count down a bit if I did, but I have to work with what I've got. I hope you enjoy it! CATEGORY 1: THEME Galen's Row 901 pcs $70-80 UPDATED (notes below) Galen's Row is the busy street leading up to the city gate in the medieval fantasy world of Egloron. The main sets are designed as dioramas to fit on shelves that can be populated with small builds like kiosks, carts, and entrances. The theme is aimed at AFOLs with not a lot of space for display (like myself). The street has 4 buildings: two houses, a tavern, and a winery. The set comes with 3 minifigs: a ranger barkeep, an elven warrior, and a faun winemaker. v2 Changes: After a photoshoot, the tavern-side looked a bit too drab and lacked storytelling so I tweaked it a bit. You can see the original in my Galen's Row Flickr album. Tavern: - Second floor is tan rather than light bley - Windows on first and second floor swapped - Added decorative stuff under the roof - Added a notice board - Added a shield Home: - Added flowers Barber-Surgeon Kiosk: 80 pcs $10-15 The medieval barber-surgeon performed all sorts of services including shaving, shampooing, cleaning/pulling teeth, bloodletting, amputating, drilling holes in skulls to cure headaches, and analyzing urine for illnesses. An amazing profession indeed but the four-armed barber-surgeon of Galen's Row can perform several of these services at once. Such a time-saver! Get your piss sniffed and your cuts bandaged at his kiosk just outside the city gates. Fun fact: The barber pole is a symbol of the medieval barber-surgeon. Those were the used bandages hung outside that twisted in the wind. (This build was inspired by xenlc's stands made from the Ninjago arcade part. I love those stands and wanted to make my own for some time. While toying around with how to use the hinge part, I thought of a barber pole and that's how the barber-surgeon kiosk came about.) CATEGORY 2: MINIFIGURE LINEUP An elven warrior, a faun winemaker, a retired ranger barkeep, a fighter, and a barber-surgeon make up the characters on Galen's Row. (I changed up some minifig parts from my theme photos after.)
  18. Can we share our creations on our own socials after we post on Eurobricks? Or will that disqualify the entry?
  19. According to the LEGO store calendar, they'll be released on March 23.
  20. Awesome @makoy! Thanks for the list!
  21. They have been reported in Billund with a rollout to other LEGO stores in the next couple of weeks. I'll report back when they show up in my local store.
  22. These have started appearing for Halloween:
  23. They arrive in bulk attached. I asked the store managers a lot of questions regarding BAM. There are lots of resellers too that descend on the BAM Tower and take all the good parts. Gloves are a hot item apparently.
  24. They do come together. It's the customers pulling them out and attaching them to other minifigs. That's what the store managers said, at least.
