Hello everyone, I've just finished my last custom. A french second lieutenant from the french military academy of saint cyr, created in 1804 by Napoleon (the old one, not the eurobricks emperor). Nowadays, they still wear the uniform of the 2nd half of the 19th century.

You must be right. Maybe the feeling of less sets comes from the fact that i regroup all system sets together when they were release on a several decades, when i was child.

Really nice. You made what i wanted for my clarisse( which is unfortunatly really far from this result). I love your sloop.

So much hate and agressivness for something which should make us happy. I'm not saying that TLC is right or not, just it is a private company which main purpose is to make money. It does it selling expensive toys which makes it to have to work on a good marketing and be sure to find its customers. So kids get their sets, and Afol being more visible they make some special sets for them. But we have to admit that what it makes us love lego (classic lego system sets) have very few heirs, because nowadays kids prefer licence themes. And TLG will just keep going on it in order to get more and more customers. And they will not lose us because we love too much this little plastic bricks. Buisness is business, and it dosen't deserve hate or to be angry. So make love and not war. think about what it bring us together, clicking bricks together.

I'm really impressed by your scene. well done!!!

Thank you. It is watching all amazing lego stuff shown on the net i'll try to come closer to them.

Thanks, but there is not a lot of real models of these little ships. I'll try to find one.

ladies, gentlemen, After the hussars, i went on the chasseurs (really close indeed). I started from this picture: model and decide to go further than what i did until now. If you want to see the steps, please go on the flickr. I had to creat the eagle for the flag, and the saddle, on which i added a clip to put the rifle. escort the emperor by LA BRIQUE DE CAMBRONNE, sur Flickr escort the emperor by LA BRIQUE DE CAMBRONNE, sur Flickr escort the emperor by LA BRIQUE DE CAMBRONNE, sur Flickr escort the emperor by LA BRIQUE DE CAMBRONNE, sur Flickr The chasseur à cheval de la garde regiment was the regiment of the bodyguards of the emperor. In fact, we often see Napoléon the 1st in chasseur uniform napoléon en tenue de chasseur by LA BRIQUE DE CAMBRONNE, sur Flickr because he is the honourable commander of the regiment. In this diorama, you can a little part of the escort which should be at least 25 chasseurs. What do you think about it?

Thanks, you're right. Brick warrior's Bard hat.

Thank you. I'll try. I wanted to make it small(for price and to avoid molded hull) but it should be what you said: Too small. Thanks.

Hi everyone. Can someone help me? I can't identify the hat of the second line. The big berets https://flic.kr/p/2oBXdKN Thank you.

Gentlemen, Inspired by all the beautifull ships we can see here, i decided to try one. But, even if i think she is not bad, there is something in the overall shape which bother me, but i can't identify it. I wanted to make a Brig-sloop of the war. Can you help me and find out what make it weird? What should i improve to make it better ? ( i'm not here to fake modesty, i really want to find what is the problem) Thank you a lot. essai brig by LA BRIQUE DE CAMBRONNE, sur Flickr

Gentlemen, we are the 8th of may, special holiday in the most part of europe. As all french citizen, let's go to the town's war memorial to honor those who left us for feedom.

Mine was lego tri wheel https://flic.kr/p/2oxUiNF Blacktron 1991, 39 pieces. And it's funny because i have still all pieces, even if i have lost some of my following sets.

Thanks holodoc for all these charade . It makes working our brain.. and congrats to the winner.

Oops. 5 because It is the fifth charade of this countdown?

there are 5x5 step in the instructions

Ladies and gentlemen, Since i was a child, i was disappointed byr the firefighters' helmet of the lego sets. French, i wanted a european style helmet, especially a french one which i found really nice. download (2) by LA BRIQUE DE CAMBRONNE, sur Flickr So i decided to make one for my firefighters. i modified a 3d file found on the internet (it was a pencil holder) to put it on the head of my minifigs. Ceremony of distribution of the new helmets at the fire station. by LA BRIQUE DE CAMBRONNE, sur Flickr Kids where happy to get new stuff for their fire station. but we had to make thing in the right order and put some solemnity. So we had to make some ceremony for the distribution of the new helmets, especially because some of older guys where in service since 90s. So with kids we organize a beautiful ceremony for this great event, and still don't know what to do with the old helmets (trashcan?). Ceremony of distribution of the new helmets at the fire station. by LA BRIQUE DE CAMBRONNE, sur Flickr Ceremony of distribution of the new helmets at the fire station. by LA BRIQUE DE CAMBRONNE, sur Flickr Ceremony of distribution of the new helmets at the fire station. by LA BRIQUE DE CAMBRONNE, sur Flickr Ceremony of distribution of the new helmets at the fire station. by LA BRIQUE DE CAMBRONNE, sur Flickr all the pictures are here And for the fire station, you would all recognize the 7945 from 2007 and the 60320 from 2023, joint together. But there are some dinosaurs hidding in it from 1990, and a firefighter from the fuel truck 6459 from 1999.

As i said, fire and police station sets had their price increasing for almost a decade. As adults we'd like big sets with great accuracy, but thes 2023 city sets are mainly for kids, especially the 60370 and 60375 which are 4+. What would a child do with a 500+ pieces set. Especially when they lost after one week the little accessories and had broken ten time a truck with 3 books of instructions. In the other hand you have the fire brigade 60321 and the hospital 60330 as big sets for 99,99€ each for bigger children. Lego is right when they try to hook young kids, especially with police and firefighters. I'm the perfect exemple. Tafol when i was young, all my legos in a box in the attic, then kids came, we buy them some sets and the lego madness come back. LEGO wins !!!

the train transport 6 items, 2 big cables roll, 1 cow, 1 octan tank, 1 wheel barrow, 1 forklift.

In the other hand, it is one the the cheapest fire station that lego has released, even with the global rise of the price all lego sets. So i prefer that , more little set than a big fire station with 4 parking lanes, 4 trucks 2 motorbikes et one helicopter at 200€. For children who are the primary target of city theme, it is better .

and for the end, the great scene of the charge video of the scene The charge of rhe duellists by LA BRIQUE DE CAMBRONNE, sur Flickr The charge of rhe duellists by LA BRIQUE DE CAMBRONNE, sur Flickr Et par LASSALE...... VIVE les HUSSARDS !!!!

I think it should have some differences, like with the brown which breaks more often than others colors. What does make me think about this is that the feeling with these yellow pieces, touching or clicking it on other bricks remind me when i bought a clone brand ( i'm sorry and beg your pardon for that)
