Time’s running out to enter the Colossal Contest over at Classic-Castle! There are some fabulous entries this year, and it’s been a blast to watch them come through. I do not envy the judges.
Zack Milenius’s entry is all about relativity. Or, more specifically, Relativity.
I like the castle-twist to a classic art piece. It’s just a fun build.
There’s some amazing architectural detail in this model, from the ground right on through to the roof. However, I would really like to know the cost estimate on a thing like this! The entire wall is made by a bunch of 1x2s by the looks of it. Keep up the great work!

December’s also been a busy month for Cole Blaq (whose creations we’ve already featured several of in the last few days). His Dachs ATV may not have black and white stripes, but it’s just as fierce as its namesake (though it may want to steer clear of LEGO dachshunds).

Brandon Bannerman (Catsy) isn’t taking it easy during the holiday season, pumping out new builds every few days. My favorite of the season is this festive red dive-bomber, the sub-orbital B-9D Garuda.
I was stunned when I came across this photo in Cole Blaq‘s flickr stream. The colors in the thumbnail seemed so intense that I had to take a closer look. I have to admit, I never thought I’d see someone use those tentacles for anything other than tentacles.
Air trucks are the 18-wheelers of the sky (we count the thrusters instead of wheels). This air truck by Ragsnarock has both functional details and an interior. There’s even several animated gifs showing off the features.
Speaking of VTOLs, this lovely medivac by French builder legodrome has an off-center cockpit and detailed underside.
Like the builders of the last VTOL we featured, the rest of legodrome’s photostream is also worth a lengthy perusal.
There was a time when circular towers were the latest innovation in castle building, now Tyler (Legohaulic) builds castle on a circular base. I only remember one other creation that features this technique, and that was built several years ago. Filling the circle is difficult with rectangular LEGO bricks, but Tyler finds an effective solution by laying differently shaped bricks to create a cobblestone mosaic.
