I can hardly believe yet another SHIPtember has come and gone. This year was one of the most amazing turnouts, with many first-time SHIPbuilders and veterans blowing us away with the sheer scope of their creations, from a 500+ stud Halo ring to a five-pronged star-ship with an impressive amount of teal tiles, to a ship built into and around the bones of a giant space whale. From NASA-adjacent to completely alien, this year’s lineup of ships in all manner of 100 stud orientations will make a very impressive poster in the coming months. This SHIP by EliteGuard01 packs more light gray LEGO than the newly released Death Slice, with stands that look sturdy enough to hold up a Christmas tree. And it’s bristling with engines and guns. The two top turrets remind me of the quad cannon from the Millennium Falcon. At nearly 9 feet long and 170lbs, it needed...

Frogust may have concluded over a month ago, but is that going to stop us from featuring awesome LEGO frog builds? You bet your bottom brick it won’t! This delightful dancing duo comes from BigBrickStan. The one on the right is in colours we’ve become accustomed to seeing in LEGO: green and white, with some orange highlights and big beady eyes. Why change a winning formula, right? But the use of prints on the left is equally eye-catching, in particular the torso. That part was originally a Dreamzzz turtle head! Even these amphibians are turtles all the way down, it seems… The post A LEGO frog is not just for Frogust appeared first on The Brothers Brick. Original linkOriginal author: Theo Spencer

Grab your preferred hammer or axe, a pint of ale, and join us on a tour of this Dwarven sanctuary nestled within the Red Mountains. Dwalin Forkbeard brought this imposing mountain fortress to life, and nearly every chamber and foothill of it is bustling with Dwarven activity. The faces chiseled into the very face of the mountain bear resemblance to many of the characters within, and the sheer amount of gold and stone that is used tastefully throughout this build feels very true to character for these delvers. The water technique here is lovely, and I’m half-tempted to check for a treasure chest behind one of the waterfalls. At the gate, an unexpected guest is awaiting entry. The added height to the Elvish character works extremely well, and makes the Dwarves stand out even more in comparison. Higher on the mountain, Dwarves dubbed Burin Ironpalm and Master Thorin watch over the...

We’ve seen so much creativity in how minifigs can be customized, from creative use of existing parts, to custom printed minifig torsos, to third-party cloth accessories, to hand-crocheted minifig coats! But for fashionistas, there’s only so much that can be done at minifig scale. Recent buildable figure sets for Wednesday and Wicked offer a new template for creative accessorizing, as seen in this custom couture from Maachi. The Japanese builder draws on the “Gothic Lolita” style that gained popularity in the Harajuku fashion scene in the ’90s and endures to this day. Think doll-style clothes, petticoats, bows, and lace, with lots of black. Maachi uses slopes and tiles to build out a busy bell-shaped dress, which she pairs  with platform shoes and a suitably goth parasol. Here is the original LEGO model, a fairly simple design that invites customization. Elsewhere in the LEGO catalog, we have these stand-alone dresses for Disney...
