Team Cherry recently announced upcoming updates to the latest Hollow Knight installment, a sign that the Silksong hype isn’t going away anytime soon. While I’m still working my way through the postgame act, Coosey_Goosey shared three new wonderful character builds from this incredible game – including one character that we haven’t seen built or covered on The Brothers Brick yet! They’ve also made free instructions available for all three builds, which you can download by visiting Coosey_Goosey on Rebrickable. Join us as we take a closer look at each of these buggy builds below. Hornet is understandably one of the most popular character builds we’ve seen from Silksong, but Coosey_Goosey’s take is one of our absolute favorites. The modular technique used to shape her dress is expertly done, especially where all of the portions come together to meet the collar. Hornet’s slender figure is a key visual attribute, and the Darksaber...

Paul Hetherington seems on top of the world right now, so I reached out to see if he’d be game for an interview. He said, ”Hey, Lino, that would be amazing! It would be an honor to be interviewed by my favorite interviewer. Now that Barbara Walters is gone, we need more decisive journalism to clog up the internet.” With that said, let’s soften the lights and get our decisive journalism on. Sit back, relax- and you might want to mix yourself a good, strong Tiki drink for this one. TBB: (Lino) Thanks for being with us, Paul. Look how handsome you are! Your smile can light up an adult book store. We last interviewed you in 2017 when Kanye and Diddy were topping the charts. Since then, I’ve lost my hair and gained 15 lbs. and, well, Kanye and Diddy are facing their own challenges. How are you holding up?...

By now, you will have seen our shortlist for our annual Creation of the Year award. What?! You haven’t? Well head on over here to see it! It’s one thing to create one, year-defining build. It’s another thing entirely to consistently hit such heady heights in multiple builds over the course of a year. That’s what our Builder of the Year award celebrates! This might be someone whose builds were just too good not to feature over and over again (think last year’s winner, Maxx Davidson). They might have achieved success in other spheres, such as winning contests (Jonas Kramm won his Iron Builder round in 2017) or gaining LEGO Ideas sets (Sandro Quattrini, 2021). Or perhaps they showed growth, taking their builds to new heights like Dicken Liu did in 2023. What will set our 2025 winner apart? Take a look at our shortlist and cast your vote in the...

Ids de Jong had an incredible sci-fi heavy 2025 with daily rovers in February and a showstopping New Hashima topper, but with Brickscalibur calling, the builder rings out the year medieval style. The Eastern Gate is a masterful composition, melding architecture and landscaping in a compact footprint. A hexagonal tower makes good use of 1×2 round plates to break from the grid, while snot bricks and tiles add recessed color striping around the gate. As strong as the brickwork is, my favorite elements are the pebbly ground. From just this small slice of a wall, it’s easy to imagine the bustling Middle Eastern town on the other side, thanks to the abundant figures and trees jutting from the frame. The post Camels and cobblestones at the Eastern Gate appeared first on The Brothers Brick. Original linkOriginal author: Jake Forbes (TBB Managing Editor)

Season 7, Round 8  of the prestigious Iron Builder competition with the seed part of flower bell in light blue has come to a close. In the building battle between defending champion Eann “Miscellanabuilds” McCurdy and challenger Drew “CRCT Productions” Cazenave-Tapie, the judges were split 2-1 in favor of Eann. Even though only one builder can claim the Iron Builder title this round, both participants shared incredible creations. In addition to sharing all of the entries from this round, we spoke with both builders about their experience. Drew Cazenave-Tapie (CRCT Productions) TBB:  First of all, congratulations on completing 6 incredible builds. You must be exhausted!After a quiet couple of years, you re-entered the scene in a big way this year with an incredible SHIP, awesome vignweek builds, and now you’re vying for the Iron Builder title. You seem to be at the top of your game. Care to comment? Drew:  LEGO...
