The design of these buildings is just fantastic, and you certainly can’t go wrong with that dark green and dark red clashing together. Also make sure to visit the contest over at Flickr! Very cool

Raideen will save the world
Adrian Drake (Brickfrenzy) is bringing his colossal super robot Raideen to our Big in Japan display at BrickCon. I think it will look very nice standing next to Mark Sandlin’s Mazinger Z, both of which are based off the Teknomeka frame.
Definitely not a bored room
I usually steer clear of multi-coloured brick-because-it’s-in-fashion art and design but I have to confess this particular boardroom table caught my eye. Not only is it genuinely made entirely of real LEGO (22k pieces of it no less) but there is no glue involved and a bunch of cute details including the client’s name.
As an added bonus the designers have included a 2-minute stop motion video of its creation down the bottom of the page.
And you thought actors could be moody.
We’ve all heard it, right? Actors declining roles for “creative differences”…right. Creative differences. On the actor’s part? After this fantastic brickfilm from mobiledeli, I’m personally more inclined to say it was the director with the issues. This one certainly has them.
Lego & Lyrics
Wihan (WhereverPanda) presents a gallery of *almost* black and white Lego photos inspired by song lyrics. There’s a sense of mystery and intrigue in each shot brought on by skillful lighting and framing. See them all on Flickr.
Thanks for the tip Keith Goldman!
The Empire Strikes Back Lego chess set
As follow up to his A New Hope chess set, Brandon Griffith (icgetaway) presents another beautiful set that captures the key characters from The Empire Strikes Back. I really like the Hoth themed game board, and the fact that it also acts as storage for the pieces is another plus. Check out the full details on Flickr.
Factory
Jonderqind has packed in some awsome detail in this factory. I particularly like the windows and the tower. The white recessed under the windows also caught my eye. Check out some more pictures here.
Finding Fortune
There are many things that draw me to this lovely little creation. The waterfall just jumps out, and I love the not-square base. Posted by David Leest, recently out of his dark ages. I’d say he’s coming out of those dark ages quite strong!
