Hello one and all! Glassjaw here, reporting in from good old Blighty; home of the official accent of the Galactic Empire! Discovered Lego before I can even remember and stuck with it right up till 2006 or so before other interests came along, namely Xbox live and the opposite sex (I know they don't often mix well), then a couple years ago my better half buys me the Hoth Attack (75138) and that's that. Addicted all over again! I've always been part of the Empire so most of my purchases and attempts at recreation and original design focus around that, or failing that something for it to bounce off like anything set in the original trilogy/end of clone wars era, during that transitional phase. Small army along that theme being built, with an even smaller rebel force to oppose. Projects and submissions to the star wars army posts to follow. #Hanshotfirst

Hey, my name is archi97d and I just registered after I heard a bit from eurobricks in my german home community IDS (Imperium der Steine) and were also looking for a international community to share my creations. I play with Lego since I was 5 and don't think I will stop until I become 100 and are than to old for Lego :D I usually build my MOCs with the LDD and have a special love for sacrale buildings, like churches and Microscale building. In "real" I collect Star Wars Minifigures and modells and architecture. kind regards archi97d

Hi guys! I'm Eveline from The Netherlands and a new member here. I came out of the dark ages last May and my house is already too small for all the Lego I own. I'm building my own city, got a nice Star Wars collection, own all the Brickheadz and am working on a Christmas Town (called Christmas, Doctor Who fans will get that ). I also make video's of my work (mostly the city and some speed builds) and take pictures which I post on Instagram. During the day I'm a freelance journalist. At night I build Lego or enjoy some of my other hobbies: watching series/movies (Star Wars, Doctor Who, Harry Potter), writing and photography. Nice to meet you all! If you have any questions, don't hesitate to ask :).

Hello everyone, (if someone cares about greenhorn here ) I've re-discovered LEGO after several years :) I have all sets from Western series, some Star Wars, but my biggest childish dream was to own the Skulls-eye-schooner. So I started searching on the internet to buy some...the price was outrageous. But I am playfull person - I started searching the alternatives. I've found this adult LEGO world and I am really amazed, that I am not alone My girlfriend laughs to me, basicly my whole family But to the point. Earlier than I've found this website - I made myself some sails. I bought a twill, textille collors and made sails for Black seas Barracuda. The result is great...but not perfect. The Imperial armada, Imperial flagship have difficult logos...and this is a problem...I can a draw the logos, but it is not the right way..and finally I found this page..the sails library, great tutorials - printing on artistic canvas - how simple!!! Super!! Is here someone so kind and willing to send me a pictures of Imperial armada and Flagship sails? I don't have any sklil with CAD, even with photoshop..so I'd be greatfull for your help. Thanks you for your reply. Tom, Brno, Czech rep. I mean the accurate sizes 1:1, no fotos or real scans - I know they are in library here..

Hi all, My name is Hans; I hail from the Central Valley in California. I've been building with LEGO Bricks for about 10 years now. Mostly I would build a new set and have around for a bit then I would disassemble it and combine it with other sets and create something of my own. Usually these were multicolored although I tried to keep it similar or themed. Currently I am into building custom RC vehicles wether it be sport cars or offroaders or planes (not flight capable.) I am 19 years of age and working on 1 project at the moment but have plans for others. My goal in this forum is to get help with the mechanical bits and maybe some design suggestions. Also I will try to help anyone I can. :) -Hans

Hi Everyone, This is my first post on here but I have been following some of the amazing minifig scale Star Wars MOCs' on here. I have been fascinated with them and decided to give them a bash. So far the rebel fleet includes UCS Slave 1, UCS Falcon (2017), Most recent A-Wing, I have made Intherts' X-Wing, U-Wing, as well as created a Y-wing using his cockpit and reverse engineered the main body of the ship form images. SO, to add to the fleet the Rebel scum have stolen the plans for a Lambda Shuttle.(I) They have gotten pretty far with the rebuild/reverse engineering of the design from the images on Marshal Bananas' Flickr but I have gotten stuck with the landing gear and how to connect the cockpit at those angles! I have started ordering parts for the real build. I'm about 50% delivered and will be starting on the cockpit first to try work it out in actual bricks. Would welcome your comments as well as any advice you guys may have about the build. https://www.flickr.com/photos/150280550@N02/ MB Lambda Shuttle by Hamish Dobbie, on Flickr MB Lambda Shuttle #1 by Hamish Dobbie, on Flickr Capture4 by Hamish Dobbie, on Flickr Capture5 by Hamish Dobbie, on Flickr Capture6 by Hamish Dobbie, on Flickr Capture3 by Hamish Dobbie, on Flickr Capture1 by Hamish Dobbie, on Flickr Thanks!

Hi all, Yes, I am a 'new' member here, kind of. A few years ago, I lurked and dabbled with emerging from the dark ages. However, I never fully escaped its clutches. Now, I am back and raring to go. Motivated by two kids who love Lego, I am really interested in having a city layout in our hobby room. For those interested, my name is Ian and although I was born and raised near Manchester, England I now live just outside Stockholm, Sweden. Jag kan pratar lite svenska men inte så mycket! Im much better in English, especially when it is typed as you don't have to tolerate my accent! The lego room was looking great until last week, with some tables laid out and a train track in operation, but alas, last week returning home with the temperature around -20 I found a leak, so currently have to redecorate the whole of the basement floor after it dries out. Interested in chatting with anyone, and especially keen to nosey at peoples city layouts. Live the dream, Ian

Greetings! Hello everyone, and thanks for having me aboard. My name is George and I've been 'playing' with Lego since before I can remember. I've always been an AFOL, but now my journey begins in earnest; a few shrewd bulk purchases here & there on eBay mean I have the makings of a brave new world of MOCs. Areas of interest: Post-apocalyptic zombie pirates (I firmly believe this hasn't been done to death yet!) Power Functions (self-assembling structures, to be precise) Modelling real-world mechanisms in Technic (suspension, power-transfer... not sure where I'm going with this yet) I have to admit there's always the appeal of original sets; sometimes you can't beat the thrill of opening fresh, new packets and following the instructions! For now, revisit one of the builds that's made me very interested: http://www.eurobricks.com/forum/index.php?showtopic=82003 Can't wait to check out all the exciting builds around here

Hi everbody, My name is Frank and I live in Lund, Sweden. The quick introduction: I've only recently become AFOL at the age of 45 and a half. My interests are in sculpture (how to make nice models with simple bricks) and technic lego (how to make nice models with the bewildering range of anything but simple bricks). I'm working as a programmer and drawn to Mindstorms which are - as much lego stuff nowadays - completely new to me. Second-hand Lego is the thing for me, mostly because it is less polluting, although I don't mind to occasionally buy a new set. My biggest problem right now is how to find time for my renewed hobby. Finally, let me bore you a bit with how I became AFOL. As a kid, I used to be a great fan of Lego - typically building mostly robots and space ships - but completely lost touch with it until about 7 years ago, when I stumbled into a toyshop and noticed the Creator Jet 4953. I bought it, built it, admired it and after that nothing happened for another 5 years. Then Wired mentioned the mobil crane mk II (42009) which I bought out of curiosity: to see how it compared to the very first mobile crane (855) (see also http://www.lego.com/en-us/technic/explore/designer-blogs/history-of-cranes ). That was a mindboggling experience. I felt like a neanderthaler and building the crane felt like more... Less than a year later I remembered that I was hoping to once have the UCS Millennium Falcon (10179) and I managed to find one on the Dutch website for second hand products. Boy, was I lucky with that find ... and definitely hooked again.

Hello, My name is David and I have been a LEGO fan for years, but I just joined this great community! I am always open to discussion and making new friends that share my interests! I like pretty much every LEGO theme, but my favorite are Star Wars and City/Town! I also have a Youtube channel (CelceBricks) and a Twitter account (@CelceBricks) where you can see my MOCs and creations and I am an editor at http://groovebricks.com.

Hello everyone! Some of you may know me as an active member on the Brickset forum; others may know me from Lego Ideas. If not, allow me to tell you a little bit about myself. Ever since I received my first Lego set at age 3, I have been hooked. I began building MOCs in 2009 mainly for Lego competitions, and in 2010 I started collecting sets and parts more seriously. When I heard about Lego Cuusoo in 2014, I decided to use my skills and collection to begin designing potential Lego products; my dream is to see some of them on store shelves someday, and maybe eventually work as a designer for the Lego Group. In the meantime, I am a college student in Texas, U.S. working on my engineering degree. While college life leaves little room for intense MOC building and a budget leaves little money for intense Lego collecting, I still love participating in AFOL forums so that I can learn as much as I can about this classic toy we all love so much. If you want, you can check out many of my MOCs on my blog. Some of them are up for voting to become Lego sets here on Lego Ideas! Thanks, Lego_Nerd98

Helo, I'm a new one from Poland ;) I'm not young but LEGO makes me feel like this, so with my six year old son we... build and have a lot of fun with LEGO especially Star Wars. We are fans of the Star Wars universe and LEGO completes in 100% our hobby. Very rich forum where we certainly spend some time drawing ideas to our buildings. Cheers, Marcin and Maksio

Hello! My name is Lizzi. I'm 26 and I live in Southern England. My LEGO addiction began a little over a year ago when I bought my other half the computer nerd minifigure, and I haven't really stopped buying LEGO since. Until a few months ago, I was a minifigure only buyer though, but am now just dipping my toes into other sets and actual building. It's become crazily addictive, very quickly. I like to set up minifigures in the big wide world to take photos of them, which are mostly shared on Flickr. Looking forward to getting a little more involved in the huge LEGO community out there.

Hello all. After a few weeks of lurking I have decided to sign up and begin posting. I have been missing a place to discuss Technic online since LUGNET/technic was deserted. Who am I? My name is Owen, I'm in my early 30s. I currently live in Geraldton, Western Australia, but my home is in Canberra, Australia. I have never really had any dark ages, only periods of time when other things were more important. My collection grew rapidly when I acquired a disposable income, but I have been quite restrained with my purchasing. I have a modest collection of about 20k parts, almost exclusively Technic. What do I build? Physical: I have been interested in Technic, to the exclusion of almost all other LEGO, since I was about 10 years old. I always prefer a model that does something over a model that just looks pretty, and I always prefer a mechanical solution to any particular problem over an electronic one, so I haven't played much with Mindstorms. Currently my focus is on GBC modules. I have had small GBC displays at , and . I am relatively new to participating in conventions, and am finding that building for display is a rather different beast than building for yourself. Virtual: I have been using the LDraw system of tools for a very long time. I won the last Scene of the Month contest that was held on ldraw.org before they stopped happening. My picture graced the homepage for over two years. I contributed some of the LDraw files for some of the early models for Blakbird's Technicopedia. I have a lot of experience with LD4DStudio. My narrowly missed out on a major prize in the competition it was created for. I am at least partly responsible for the creation of the Technic Action Figure LDraw parts. Unfortunately, I still haven't made much progress on the project that I wanted to use them in. It's gonna be awesome though! (at least, in my head it is). I generally use SR3DBuilder these days, but I notice that many of you use LDD. I tried it out a few years ago, and decided it wasn't very good for Technic models. It seems to have improved somewhat in that regard, so I might have to give it another shot. Studless or Studded? This is a bit of a tricky one. The majority of the parts I have are studless, but most of them are on display (I tend to build my sets and keep them on display until I need the parts). On the other hand, I find studded building much easier to get my head around. In early 2013 I decided that I needed to get better at building studless, so I rearranged my work area with a studless focus. I'm sorry to say that it hasn't helped much, because it seems I'm always pulling out my bricks and plates. Oh well, I guess I'd better practice a bit more then! I will finish with the usual plea from a newcomer to forgive any accidental transgressions of forum norms, and I look forward to future Technic discussions. Owen.

Hi Hi to all the bricklayers of this forum. My name is fred, leaving near Paris. I was a fan of lego during my childhood in the 70th, especially with the vintage train with blue rails. Then I had a long dark age until 2001 where I discovered my old collection at parents home and decided to rebuild my lego city. Now I am trying to create original models, share remarks and criticism with others fans, and optionally, get 10000 vote at lego ideas for my MOCs :-). Thanks to all for this very good forum !

Hey all, I actually started my account back in January and was kinda confused about the restrictions and navigating the forums. But I'm back now, ready to dive in and read as much as I can! ~ Aeridian
