Summer is here, and everyone loves a juicy slice of watermelon to help beat the heat, even in a galaxy far, far away. So Maxx Davidson is helping deliver that treat to the furthest reaches of space with this fresh take on a classic Star Wars ship. Maxx has made perfect use of various shades of green to capture the look of the melon rind, and those diamond tiles as seeds on the front mandibles are inspired. But my favorite detail is the round fruit slice tile serving as the cockpit window. Delicious. The post A Millenni-YUM Falcon appeared first on The Brothers Brick.

Fresh off the heels of the great review of the new LEGO Shelby Cobra, we get another delivery from Firas Abu-Jaber, the third-generation Chevrolet Big Block Camaro. From the detailed guest review that Firas delivered, the amount of effort and detail provided to this Camaro should come as no surprise. While Firas calls out the love and effort put into the engine, for me, it’s the headlights that make the build shine.

Today’s guest article comes from Richard Dryden, a builder who has competed on LEGO Masters and helped create the Awesome Black Creativity project. How Basketball Can Save the World “Dutch Sociologist Johan Huizinga published his seminal work Homo Ludens, explaining that play has always been a safe, sublime, and necessary space for us to find relief from the difficulty of the human condition. Play, as illuminated by Huizinga, delivers a free voluntary experience, disinterested in material gain and separate from the sprawling incomprehensibility of life. Play gives order to that incomprehensibility with clear rules and limits on time, locality, and duration where we can live out real human vices and virtues - teamwork, sacrifice, cooperation, selfishness, risk, courage, cowardice, grace under pressure, winning, losing - without the real-life consequences of life and death, profit and loss. Play, according to Huizinga, is freedom itself. What better human sanctuary has ever evolved than...

For each issue of BrickJournal Magazine, the BrickNerd team creates instructions for a LEGO mini-model to go with the theme of the cover story. For their recent issue about music and album covers, we created a cassette tape! Building a Microscope The cassette tape was a game-changer back in the day, making music portable and personal. To celebrate this retro classic, our design stays true to the real thing. It has curved corners, tape reels, a label, and even the little clear window that shows the tape inside. Building this set is like hitting play on nostalgia. It’ll take you back to the days of making mixtapes for your buddies and recording your favorite song from the radio. And it ever implements a sweet little stud inversion on the sides to keep things interesting. So get your pencils out because it is time to be kind and rewind! LEGO Cassette Tape...
