Doing a little building during the count down.

Also a few quick sketches.

Super excited there is a new (mostly) reusable manned space craft!!!

I build you, you build me!


We took the brick headz scarecrow built a customized version of each other. She made me and I made her. It was a super fun team build!

Saturn 5 in 3 scales

Have had the Saturn 5 around since last year and have been on a small building spree the last week or so. Realized I had the parts to make a small scale version. Here is a reference photo. My versions are not perfect but I'm happy enough -:]

Here is the Mini version.
Part way through the build I also realized I could do one even smaller.
With a Lego Space Mini Fig (mostly) from the late 70s / early 80s (original helmet design).
With the larger, but still not mini fig scale, Lego Saturn 5 in the background.
How about with it in the foreground.
And all three in frame.
And of last but not least some 3d pics.


Anthropomorphic Furniture

As a friend said, "That's a nice looking chair but I wouldn't want to sit on it."

Had to make a friend for the little guy.

And here they are with a little end table.

And in 3D -:]

Orangutan's Banana Tree to Jangler Fish

This is why I love Lego.I got "Orangutan's Banana Tree" for Christmas, built it and had it sitting on the shelf since Dec.

Yesterday I decided I needed to see what I could make using just that set and here is what I came up with.
I call it the "Jangler Fish" kind of short for Jungle Angler Fish. I amazed my self with the SNOT I managed to get in there. Lucky for me there were two SNOT pieces that let me turn the ground plates into mirrored body sides and also attach the top and bottom mouth/teeth/palm leaves to make the mouth. It's a bit hard to see but I also managed to use a spare vine that was with the set to make a tongue that is solidly attached and you can press from the back to make it go in and out. All in all I was really happy with my silly little build just using the sets pieces.
