Hello EB fellows, It's been a while since I last come to visit here. But I have been busy with this brickbuild Rayman figure: Rayman I hope you will like it. Cheers !

Thanks you very much for your kind comments, I'm really glad you liked it. Moreover, thanks for your comments on the photography itself, because I had a really hard time to shoot it. Taking picture of black bricks is a real pain because of reflection.

Hi Eurobrikcs, Here is my latest MOC, wich depict the arrival of Deadpool, very quietly... through the wall !! BoOom !! by 74louloute, on Flickr More pics : And a close-up of the motorbike : Deadpool and his motorbike by 74louloute, on Flickr This is a quick MOC but I wanted to try this type of explosion, and make a bruickbuild motorbike ! Crticisms and comments are welcome !

1930, Friday 13rd June : 6am Henri Guillaumet say goodbye to his friend Antoine de Saint Exupéry before taking off for its 92rd flight over the Andes. Story of the Aeropostale by 74louloute, on Flickr Story of the Aeropostale by 74louloute, on Flickr He didn't know, but in a few hours, he crashed his Potez 25 at Laguna del Diamante in Mendoza, Argentina, because of bad weather. He walked for a week over three mountain passes. Though tempted to give up, he persisted while thinking of his wife, Noëlle, until June 19 at dawn when he was rescued by a 14-year-old boy named Juan García. He reached a village whose inhabitants could not believe his story. This exploit made him stand out among the 'stars' of Aéropostale. To his friend Antoine de Saint-Exupéry, who had come to find him, he said, "Ce que j'ai fait, je te le jure, aucune bête ne l'aurait fait." (What I have done, I swear to you, no other animal would have done.) More pics of the plane : ----- This is my first try at a forced perspective, I hope you guys will like it ! Critics and comments are welcome.

Thanks you everybody again ! I don't think this will have success on Cuusoo because it's a little bit fragile

Thanks everybody for your kind comments, and many thanks for the frontpage ! To be honest it was a real challenge because the contest rules says that the MOC shouldn't exceed 32x32, so everything should be inside ! Each time I added a brick, I had to fold the book to see if it fits !! Thank you again, I'm really glad you liked it.

Hi Eurobrickers, Here is my latest MOC depicting the Château de Lunéville, in Lorraine, France. On the cover of the book, you can find the heraldry of Freistroff : the left part is the blazon of Lorraine, and in the right the blazon of family Valcourt-Freistroff. Inside the Château, you can find the Duc Stanislas Leszczyński, in its bed. He died in an accident at the age of 88 years old. His bed burned while he was sleeping. A little maid saved him from the fire but he died several days later. The MOC is made for the L13 contest on Brickpirate.net where you have to build something related to Lorraine, France.

I wanted to do some Neo Classic Space for a while, so the monthly L13 contest on BrickPirate was a good excuse. This is a quick little speeder, just to get my hands back in the bricks. Neo Classic Space Speeder More pics on BS, if you want : Don't hesitate to make criticism (constructive of course ! ), maybe I'll try again in the future. Thanks for watching.

Thanks guys for your comments. Much appreciated

History of the Labyrinth : Daedalus created the Labyrinth on Crete, in which the Minotaur (part man, part bull) was kept. In the story of the labyrinth Hellenes told, the Athenian hero Theseus is challenged to kill the Minotaur, finding his way with the help of Ariadne's thread. After that, Daedalus and his son Icarus were jailed in the Labyrinth by Minos, king of Crete. In order to escape, they made wings with feathers and wax. Just before to flight, Daedalus warned Icarus not to fly too high, because the heat of the sun would melt the wax, nor too low, because the sea foam would soak the feathers. But Icarus didn't listen to his father, and fell into the sea and drowned. Your comments on this tragic story are welcome !

Montefienali - Tuscany 1535 : A tumbler company has just arrived in town and started their show. But everybody doesn't seems to enjoy their performance... All the pics are clickable for bigger version !

You know, I read "everything screams western for you" so I take my chance with that. And a little camp like that isn't the very beginning of a town ? Who knows ?

Dreaming about gold, this poor lonely cowboy is ready to take any risks ... even the one to leave his riffle too far away to respond to an unannounced visit... (Pics are links to higher resolution) Since I saw this technic IRL on this moc, I wanted to try my hands to this SNOT floor. So credits goes to Capt'ain Spaulding for the idea. Hope you will like it.

The cheese slope and the 1x1 bricks are connected with a technic half pin : The connection is not the best because we can see the pin inside... Many thanks ISC for the comment, means a lot from you ! And many thanks for the Frontpage with my friend Lego-Maniac ! Maybe you will have a surprise with a third part soon !

Hi, I'm glad you noticed it because I had a hard time doing this. As you can see here, I used a 2x1 Tile on each side to get this shape. I hope this will help you.

Thanks everybody, I'm glad you liked it ! And many thanks to Rick for the blog too, it means a lot. Hehe, nope ! I didn't saw your MOC before, but I like it

After presenting you the MOC of the Juva 4, I predicted a following MOC. So, here is an everyday life in Paris in the 30's : BS gallery once moderated : http://www.brickshelf.com/cgi-bin/gallery.cgi?f=472535 I will show this at the Fanabriques event, in France in June. Hope you will like it, I'm waiting for your comments and criticism ! :)

Thanks for the review ! I have a question about the wheels : is this a new diameter for them ? I can't figure out how big they are. For example, is it compatible with a minifigure sized car ?
