Fire truck from Fahrenheit 451

Bartosz Kacprzyk (the oneman) creates his version of the fire truck from Fahrenheit 451. I love the fitting retro-futuristic style of this vehicle and the plow, which I think makes the creation stand out. The warm lighting also adds to the presentation; we don’t need to see a pile of burning books to know that things are about to heat up.

Cool in any language

I don’t pretend to be able to read or pronounce the name of this new mecha by Dane Erland (Lord Dane). That doesn’t stop me from knowing that I like the CEC Podróżujący – czworonóg, though.

There are a lot of excellent details on this creation, starting with the well sculpted small turret on top. I also think that the gears and other bits at the joints of the legs really help give them a functional look. The use of minifig vests to vary the thickness of the legs is also a nice touch, especially using an old castle logo to add insignia to the creation.

Persian Corner

Here we go! The Prince of Persia pieces are flowing into Cafe Corner models. At first glance I thought the same builder from our previous post made this, but no. Another builder has taken advantage of the new arches and colors to make this masterpiece. Great job on this!

Porsche 911 Carrera by Arvo

It’s always a treat see a new creation by the Arvo brothers. They’re known to build great cars, and this one is no different. The slanted hood and roof give the model its realistic shape. Check out the gallery on Brickshelf for pictures of the chassis that features working suspension.

Cruisin’ in the Coupe

Peter Blackert (lego911) builds fantastic vehicles out of brick. This is simply a fact. His latest creation brings us back to the Roarin’ 20s with a brilliantly executed Ford Model A (1927) Deluxe Coupe ‘Grandfather’ design. More photos, including his mini-land scale Grandma and Grandpa, are found in his USA Holiday 2010 set.

First off I would like to apologize for my leave of absence. School’s coming around, so I must keep up with that. Thanks for staying with us!

Now onto this terrific creation. The mix between the middle-eastern architectural details and the “small town” look to makes for a fantastic view. The colors are rarities themselves, and who can’t love that sign?

Great job, and keep it up!
