I’m consistently wowed by the geometric designs that Katie Walker fiddles with and frequently shares. It’s extra rewarding when she incorporates the results of her experiments into beautiful architecture like this grand staircase and mosaic floor.

Chimeric Prototype
Frederic (Shamisenfred) has a fairly unusual take on LEGO spaceships for his Andromedan Empire series. His latest ‘Chimere’ prototype fits the series perfectly with the mixture of heavy curves and nautical shapes.

The shining lights of Micropolis Airport
With this lovely airport, Rakanishu1024 has built one of the most substantial LEGO models I’ve seen that uses the Micropolis standard, complete with landing lights on the runway.

Lego ATLAS and P-Body from Portal 2
Portal 2 is here! And along with that comes the first brick-built versions by Tyler (Legohaulic) of the adorable protagonists from this video game. Here’s ATLAS and P-Body:
As a bonus, check out the multi-colored turrets by Ryan (L D M) inspired by this trailer.
55cm LEGO Ironman
I know nought about Iron Man but Alex Schranz (“Orion Pax”) was obviously a fan of the comic and has dedicated 55cm worth of ABS to recreating this armoured superhero. His dedication to recreating the ‘muscles’ on the figure really lend it a drawn air. And as an added bonus the light in the chest actually works. Superb building.
The keen-eyed will notice a slight difference between the most recent four shots and the rest.
Microscale space rover
This microscale helium transport rover by Robert H. (Robiwan_Kenobi) has so many neat details to point out. For starters, there’s the spherical container modules made from ball turrets, the suspension springs made from ray guns, the command module made from a helmet visor, and the joints on the mecha made from half of a universal joint. Everything is integrated beautifully into this small but quality-oriented model.
Characters of Brick
Bricks by the Bay and the steampunk Nova Albion exhibition happened at the same time and the same place last month, so Iain Heath (Ochre Jelly) and Guy Himber (V&A Steamworks) took advantage of this massive convergence of geekiness to dress for the occasion. Naturally, Iain followed that up with LEGO versions of himself and the inimitable Mr. Himber.
Bravo, sirs, bravo.
