Here’s a pretty LEGO view — a daisy-strewn meadow with a brick-built backdrop. Hans Demol built this mosaic for a display with his local LEGO group. Mosaics are not usually my favourite kind of LEGO building, but the addition of the strip at the front with the daisies elevated this into something more interesting than a simple rendition of a pixelated image. It would be even better if some of the varied green shades in the backdrop’s “grass” had continued forward over the base, but that’s nitpicking at an otherwise lovely design.

When it comes to building LEGO maritime creations, one artist stands out as being a foremost authority. Arjan Oude Kotte has graced us with several of his masterpieces over the years. They include a Rotterham Harbor Tugboat, and a massive 1930’s Danish ship, among others. All his creations are packed with magnificent attention to detail and incredible personality. His latest build, Finnian’s shipyard, is another superb addition to his collection, and we love it! The colors and details are truly impressive. The shipyard features a dry dock, where workers build and repair large boats. An unfinished tugboat sits inside, with workers busy building. The workers in the materials yard are busy carting wood and steel into the shop to use during construction. Lots of effort went into making everything line up just right. A story is told with every shift in angle. Scale replica models used in hobby train layouts, which...

I've always been fascinated by Land Rovers. Not because I'm particularly the outdoorsy type, or that I like luxury, it precisely the fact that I'm neither that makes it fascinating. Land Rover used to be pretty much pure utility, and all over the world they're in use in remote locations for their durability (or at least ease of repair in the bush). But steadily over time they've rebranded themselves as a luxury car. Now they're driven by people that will happily show off all the rugged features, but never ever use those features on the 405 freeway or on the way to yoga. This rescue Defender by builder Gilcélio is true to the roots and spirit of Land Rover, utility, practicality and ruggedness, serving and protecting and getting there in reasonable comfort.

It’s not even summer yet but we have a first look at the upcoming LEGO Creator Christmas Train (30543) polybag. It has 66 pieces and it’s actually a decent looking train for a being a polybag. The build contains the locomotive, a cargo cart, and a passenger cart. There’s no word on availability of it at this time but I have a feeling it might come to Walmart or Target.
