This LEGO character is truly a masterpiece; Nathaniel has faithfully taken an idea and executed it to the perfection of his own vision: A Native American stands proudly with a war bonnet and a spear for support. What’s amazing about this are the details. Builder Nathaniel stays faithful to the parts of all things from LEGO. If you have not already noticed, the face is from the buildable figure of Chirrut with streaks of face paint streaks from LEGO stickers cut to shape and meticulously placed. No details are left unspared, with a carefully crafted base including the fur pieces which were treasures from old Duplo set accessories.

Building a showcase that’s meant to be permanently displayed as a model in the very building is always going to be a challenge and an honor. Builder Julien Andries had the pleasure of showcasing his 25,000-brick replica model of a school chapel at the grand opening of the newly renovated building. Though I’m no expert in architecture, I’m willing to bet that the original building is probably more than a century old. Reference to the original chapel and comparison looks like Julien did an astounding job! The post 25,000 bricks and 200 man hours for a LEGO chapel replica appeared first on The Brothers Brick.

November, more so in the northern hemisphere, is a month of foggy mornings, rainy days and… Vic vipers? Indeed, every year the LEGO community on Flickr celebrates the most popular standardized spaceship format in the LEGO fan circles. While people have different views on what a Vic Viper should be and what they like or dislike about it, we still have dozens of these sleek spaceships swoosh through NoVVember every year. This year does not seem like it will be any different, so expect many more Vic Vipers on The Brothers Brick in the next few weeks. “Seraph” is one of such aggressive, fast looking spaceships we all love and Sam Malmberg‘s contribution to the 2017 NoVVember project. It uses a very pleasing colour scheme with nice contrast in its front prongs — not only contrasting in colour, but in style too, giving a bare-bone alternative to the otherwise smooth and...
The Jaguar Roadster is a classic car that cannot fail to turn heads as she cruises along in elegant style. The curvaceous body is not something that immediately lends itself to being built from LEGO Technic parts, but that is exactly what Martijn Nab has managed to achieve. While the build is not an exact copy of one particular model, I’m definitely picking up a classic XK124 or 140 vibe with those bulbous front fenders. With three colours to choose from, Martin has managed to make a Technic Jag that captures the shape and feel of the real thing . Martin has added some functionality with opening doors, boot and hood but there are no dodgy gears in this particular Technic supercar!
