What I like the most about Chrispockst’s Sand Baron flying wing is that he went out of his way to use all kinds of what he calls “un-useful/unusual parts” that work well together to make this thing look like a chunky behemoth.

I especially love the huge off-angle engines around the low sleek cockpit.

It’s Mine!

One of the rarely-mentioned advantages of mining equipment is that it is so huge you can build it in technic and have it be minifig scale. As Arjan Kotte (Konajira) illustrates in this delightful pair.

Amazing World War II LEGO diorama

A collection of Lugpol members (Pit, Mrutek, Rasch, Ciamek, Glaz_Pimpur, Misiek, Zgredek and Kris Kelvin) have combined forces to produce this stunning diorama of the Eastern Front. The diorama is presently on display at Gdansk Town Hall and if I was near the area I’d certainly be checking it out.

The diorama is full of amazing details, wonderful buildings, decay, flora and excellent military vehicles. Kris has a collection of his shots and a lot of links to further shots in this set. This is my favourite diorama ever and sets the bar very high. I’m even more amazed that with so many cooks the broth is so delicious.

Bus by Karwik

There is something engaging about a well-built bus. I have no idea what it is, since nearly all of my experiences on long bus rides have been bad. However, regardless of my own past experience, Karwik has built a charming bus, complete with bus stop.

LEGO Technic Starcraft 2 Banshee

This banshee, by Antti Havala, is incredibly gorgeous and that isn’t something you can say about a lot of Technic builds. Sporting four rotors, two motors, adjustable rotor pitch and two LED headlights, this Banshee screams for attention.

Pretty Postkutsche

If you don’t know German, you can say “Snazzy Stagecoach” instead.

Whatever you call it, this rendition of a German Postkutsche, by Jojo, is spot on. I love the details and the harness is a great touch.

Crunk for yo’ trunk

All I can think of when I see this lowrider by Bartosz Sasiński hopping down the street toward a hapless elderly gentleman is SEALUG member Roger hanging out of Justin Pratt‘s car trying to pawn off black LEGO by the pound after a recent meeting. I guess you had to be there…

Passing

It’s a lovely brick-built street with a really cool car.

Keep on Truckin’

I’m absolutely loving this truck by Christoph Monnaie (stenertje). The level of detail in the truck bed is absolutely amazing. This vehicle looks perfectly suited to its role of hauling around and deploying the small aircraft accompanying this creation. This has the feel of an awesome toy from the 80s, and I can’t get enough of it.
