If you take too quick a look, you could actually miss this unique placement of elements. Allow your eyes to relax a little and your minds to open and you’ll start to see a lighthouse on a cliff with a boat, perhaps lost at sea. I wonder if David Zambito started out with the intention in mind, or did a bunch of elements on the table almost randomly placed give him the inspiration for this tiny wonder. Does art inspire life, or life inspire art? It’s always something to ponder about. The post A beauty in a technical sense appeared first on The Brothers Brick. Original linkOriginal author: Edwinder

Speedyhead has beautifully captured what was easily the most heart-wrenching scene from season 2 of The Walking Dead. I can still recall the sense of dread, as the camera focuses on the small gap in the barn door, and Sophia emerges from the darkness. The barn itself is wonderfully detailed and weathered. While the use of so many different grass elements along the edge of the barn conveys a sense of managed chaos as nature starts to reclaim civilization. There are so many other details worth mentioning in this LEGO creation, besides the barn itself. The use of “stalks” of Technic connectors to form the gnarled tree, the wire fence, and the tractor are also great touches. I also love the use of some fairly old wheel rims for the flatbed cart.

h2brick has created what has become quite an iconic scene from the Star Wars Battlefront 2 Gameplay Trailer, depicting the moment Darth Maul shows up to ruin the sectors clearness. The build makes use of surprisingly few new and specialized parts, but still captures the aesthetic of a battle damaged Naboo perfectly. I particularly like the addition of the simple yet quite accurate AT-RT walker. The post Sector is clear...Not clear! Not clear! appeared first on The Brothers Brick.

The City Station of Trossingen in Germany built by Steffen Rau is simply breathtaking. The architectural detailing and color are astounding and eye-popping, with intricate features on the facade that look like it took some marvelously complex techniques to achieve that even an architect would be proud of. The siding just below the roof which was most likely wooden gives a beautiful compliment in color to the red roof tiling and a nice contrast with the mid-section in black and white. The back of the building features the train tracks and a platform with minifigure commuters waiting for their train to arrive. Steffen even shared a bit about the construction of the detailing and the techniques used for the upper facade. It was featured as part of a larger display at the Museum Auberlehaus with a proper set of trains chugging along. Trossingen is known to have one of the oldest...

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.
