Chris Edwards once again demonstrates proper way of controling the action with his latest diorama called War Machines Strike. Using clever building techniques as well as puns, Chris shows us what happens when intelligent combat robots throw down their weapons and go on strike, ha! Check out the full gallery on Flickr.
The fuel that powers all those racers in the recent LUGNuts challenge has to come from somewhere. And something has to defend that fuel from meth-roaches. Wait, what? Take it away, Mark Stafford!

Competition is heating up over at Forbidden-Cove‘s Jolly Roger Contest. Matthew Hurt steps into the competition with this fortress, prepared to defend against the oncoming enemy.
There’s a certain grace in simplicity, and I do believe this build captured some of that essence. LegoLord posted this lovely little chapel, complete with columns, arches, and recessed windows. I like the little details that pop up to make the building visually interesting.
One of the Categories for the Colossal Castle Contest is Fairy Tales–and Scrat has chosen to illustrate the Danish tale The Little Match Girl by Hans Christian Andersen. In the vein of many original fairy tales, this is a sad, sad story. Scrat’s rendition captures the melancholy atmosphere perfectly:
Dave Shaddix lets the viewer control the action with Peace is Bad for Business. But we all know that squiddie controls the action.
It’s been nearly two years since tiberium_blue has posted a LEGO creation that I’m aware of, but the wait has been worth it. There’s so much to love in the details throughout the scene, from the stone wall to the walls and roof on the treehouse itself.
I want to go to there…
Thanks to Paul Lee for the tip!
Brian (Âtin) uses microscale buildings and mountains in the background to create a fantastic forced-perspective diorama.
Don’t miss Brian’s behind-the-scenes shots showing some interesting techniques for the road in particular.
Flickr user LegoLord continues his Dawn Core series in the footsteps of Keith Goldman. The Delta Thursday is the latest in the weekday lineup and depicts an assault on an sci-fi air base. Check out Monday through Wednesday and don’t miss the full gallery.
I can tell you where I’ll be going when I need the services of a forge. This creation is simply stunning. I’m partial to the look of 1×1 and 1×2 plates used to emulate stone; the chimney here is a gorgeous example.
All of the details here, really, are just wonderful. I see something new every time I look. What’s your favorite part about this forge?
Mr. Watkins, you have outdone yourself.
