somewhere in the comments he says “strips of tiles and plates” but I still don’t see that. He says it’s in blocks magazine…anyone get that? @whitesidewjw ?

These look really cool. Apparently he got custom boards manufactured to make it possible.

Off the top of my head, here are the builders whose unique work inspires me.

As for the North Pole Village, talk to @g…Read more

@awarb – 2.5 (1 display, 2 shifts, set-up) *first-time…Read more

I’ve said it before, but thank you to everyone who contributed to make our display so awesome. We had 27 members participate, including some new members displaying for the first time. If I forgot anyone, I apologize, but many…Read more

We can nail down more specifics as we get closer. We still have a lot of real estate to fill, but I’m confident we can do it, especially since we’ll have things built from previous events.

Would @emperorofthenorthpole be interested in bringing trians? Maybe space from @whitesidewjw and @tfdesigns?

I also like the nose assembly of fender parts. I call that a “snoof”, because it’s funny.

Darn you and your non-production colors… all right, which one is is this time… 😀

@smallfrost I like the quadruped robot! Creative face piece selection!

Rules:
1. 35 parts + 1 minifig (29 parts, as our inspiration sports, seems too limiting)
2. Minifig accessories count against part count
3. Must be able to call it a scanner with a straight face

Note: it doesn’t have to be a vehicle – many sets had cool scanners…Read more

Anyway, here’s plenty of bonus info that nobody asked…Read more

I know @whitesidewjw uses ingots as beveled bricks, and this is really effective on circular towers because the raised tiles distract from the hinged connection points behind this stonework greeble. It also gives the surface more depth and a sense of being heavier. Or he’ll use palisade bricks and the 1×2 bricks with…Read more

* If I think of these builds as maxifigs, then this changes everything. It’s very possible to build dioramas with figs this size, and the G1 cartoon, set in badlands a lot, with industrial fire bases, yeah, this could be even more impressive at a show. @whitesidewjw does some pretty impressive…Read more

@wreckgar13, I think there are many different ways to approach designing a Space faction.

* You can start with a color palette, as all LEGO Space factions tend to have one,…Read more

Would a talk about the creative process of how to model a building be of interest? I could probably prepare and give a presentation on the process of…Read more

We got some planning done for the January Lego store display and Rich’s space fighters look great.

I have always wanted to build a race circuit, ever since I was a little kid. Now that I have *this* much LEGO and the money to support larger projects, I can do it, and with low stress, as I’m casually chipping away at this project instead of something higher stakes and higher pressure on myself. Big projects have overwhelmed me in the…Read more

So, what HAVE I been tinkering with?

* I have pretty much completed the #8 Turbo Sprinter V8 racecar in blue and flat silver. the stickers I’m using on the hood won’t lie down because of…Read more

For the outside “construction crew” What dot you think about M:Tron?

I can’t make it to the event that day, but would be glad to lend my modulars for it.

Step 1: Lay out crucial parts. For me, this meant keeping the cockpit box in mind, as it will determine the base color. I have (4) Black Wedge 6 x 4 Triple Inverted Curved, part 43713. This was to form the bottom front of the cockpit box and the nose of the fighters. I checked to see if I…Read more

These will go a long way toward filling out the SHIP.

This sounds interesting. I can’t wait to see them.
