The LEGO® Brand values
Imagination:
Curiosity asks, ”Why?” and imagines explanations or possibilities (if.. then). Playfulness asks what if? and imagines how the ordinary becomes extraordinary, fantasy or fiction. Dreaming it is a first step towards doing it.

Prettier with water
Water makes a lot of landscapes look better by giving them a sense of life and movement. In this diorama by Tom Simon, water is used to great effect in enhancing the look of the scene. In particular, the color gradient of the river and the widening flow of the waterfall are techniques that warrant imitation. With such great irrigation, I wonder why there are no crops in the field.
Arrested development
It’s been a while since I’ve blogged anything I’ve made but I’m fond enough of this one to put it up. Because if you’re around my age Neo Space Police I makes more sense than Neo Classic Space.
Many, many, many thanks to Pete Reid for this. It wouldn’t exist were it not for him.
Motorized Scania R500 recovery truck
Ralph Savelsberg (Mad physicist) has built a colorful and complex model of the Scania R500 recovery truck, featuring remote-controlled drive and steering. I love the half plate inset on the sides and the colored lines that run across the vehicle. As with Ralph’s style, you can see the exposed studs on the top that contributes to the sculptural quality of this model.
Check out the video to see the truck in action.
