LEGO phenom Jarek Książczyk tells us that this decidedly organic LEGO creation sort of grew…organically. It was a finished product at one time and then it wasn’t. He later added more to it and the end result (we think, anyway) is a thing of beauty and dread all rolled into one. Furthermore, he says that, not unlike a growing organism, kept absorbing older creations into itself. We have a heart in a hand, a wall of faces, and what appears to be a suspended figure. I can’t even begin to decipher what this all means but sometimes good art is up for interpretation. Let us know in the comments what you think it means. In the meantime, check out the other times Jarek Książczyk has tickled our fancy. The post A truly organic LEGO creation built organically appeared first on The Brothers Brick.

Jiwoo Seon is back with an astounding piece of LEGO artwork. Jiwoo has expanded on a previously developed technique to create this beautifully vibrant flowery dress. The star piece of this work is the 1×6 curved arch in a wide variety of colors that makes up the majority of the dress, but if you take the time to look closely you will see a huge variety of unique parts used to add texture and interest. You will see a lot of these parts in the highly detailed dripping ink effect below the dress! In this angled shot, we can see just how three-dimensional this artwork is. The large white and yellow flower leaps off the canvas. The white and the red-pink flowers add further texture to the whole composition. The mosaic portrait of the woman wearing the dress is a unique addition to Jiwoo’s previous flower artwork. Largely done in shades...

The Evil Queen’s witchy disguise in Disney’s Snow White is a frightening sight, but as captured by LEGO Master Dicken Liu, she’s downright adorable. The witch’s scale lets cloth elements seamlessly drape around her hunched form, and the brick-built elements emphasize curves and canted angles that turn LEGO rigidity into a cartoon come to life. Dicken includes some sly Disney nods in that characterful face. The beady eyes are sourced from Moana’s rooster companion Hei-Hei in the Disney Duos set, and the nose appears to be an unpainted prototype of Alice’s hairpiece.  Once again, Dicken impresses with his innovative techniques and knack for character. Why not take the witch’s apple, let your dreams come true, and revisit some of our favorite Dicken Liumodels?

Among Batman’s rogues’ gallery, few villains (or at least few bird-themed ones) are as iconic as the Penguin. Now he finally gets his due in larger-than-life LEGO form by Pasq67. This scaled-up figure recaptures both the proportions of a regular-sized minifig (including Oswald Cobblepot’s shorter legs) and the details. In true Penguin form, he’s dressed to impress and intimidate. His monocle is a bicycle tire, his fur collar (or feathers, depending on the depiction) is accented by leaf elements, and his iconic umbrella is lovingly recreated with sloped bricks and tubes. After all, when you’re headed out to wreak some havoc on Gotham City, only the finest fashion accessories will do.

Medusa, she of the snake hair and stony gaze, remains one of the most captivating figures from Greek mythology. She even made an appearance back in Series 10 of the Collectible Minifigures line. Builder Kooky Bricks honors the hip and tragic monster with a diorama worthy of an Olympian. Here we see Medusa facing off with a would-be slayer in the ruined temple of Athena. At this larger scale, made from 14,619 parts,  Kooky Brick is able to pack in incredible detail in both the figures and the setting. Medusa’s scaly body is achieved by overlapping rows of plate teeth, a great effect that feels both organic and a very solid snake form. As impressive as the figures are, it’s the temple itself that leaves us spellbound. According to the later origins recounted by Ovid (and Rick Riordan), Medusa was a beautiful woman turned monstrous in an unjust act of petty...
