  1. Well 2024 LEGO Speed Champions released 2 last cars (F40 & NASCAR) so came time to discuss about 2025. Somewhere in internet I read LEGO go all in F1 cars in 2025. What's your thoughts?
  2. Fastrum is an important town of Hellum that lies just north of the upper Ebba. Today, many inhabitants and even some travelers from Faldia are feasting in the town as the grand carnival is held today. -- A new build in the Whispering Woods series. The carnival is in town by Ids de Jong, on Flickr
  3. Hey hey! First time posting over in the pirate's forum, as I'm usually over posting in historic themes. This was a quick 2 day build that I did recently for a gift exchange with some friends. C&C welcome. :) To Jesus Christ my Lord and Savior be the glory!
  4. Hi Friends, Happy New Year! Wanted to share a new modular building I have completed over the holidays. This model combines the facades of two LEGO Friends sets that I've collected; 41093 Heartlake Hair Salon and 42618 Heartlake City Cafe. This will go on a street of Miami/Florida esque modular buildings that also use the MILS standard. -The 41093 was put towards a single story building on the modular standard before, but I wanted to revamp it, make it sturdier, and simplify the color palette. Also, since this was built 9 years ago, the parts palette is much larger for this new build. -The barber shop/hair salon comes with: waiting room, cash desk, haircut area, shampoo and blowdry stations - Due to the abundance of cafes, I decided for something different with the 42618's facade. Since the color scheme has a Wynwood vibe to it, I went with making it a tattoo shop and private office. This was also adapted to two stories and includes some masonry bricks in the Spring Yellowish Green color that I was able to acquire in bulk. The details are just improvisational and minimal, but the essential stuff is there. Here's a video explaining the design & details and some high-res pics showing the exterior and interior! Enjoy, and I hope this inspires similar and better creations from you all! \
  5. Next project (while I wait for my Cabover Truck Bricklink orders to come in) is a Unimog camper. I like to use the bigger doors for my truck creations and all online MOCs used the small door so this is a complete new build. Also I have lots of LEGO service packs with the blue train doors and windows so blue it is: Inside has toilet/shower, overhead cupboard, oven and hot plates, fridge and seat/table that converts to a bed. Still have to design fuel tank, batteries, jerry cans for underside. Here is the render so far.
  6. I have just finished building my food truck empire. 8 USA based food trucks and 8 Italian based Piaggio Ape food/drink/toy selling trucks. Donut Food Truck: Piaggio Ape Wood Fired Pizza Truck: Has a LEGO light brick installed to simulate the pizza oven glow. Popcorn truck: The popcorn machine is from the polybag set so the corn can bounce by inserting finger thru rear door and tapping lever. Piaggio Ape Coffee Truck: Coffee machine this side. Coffee bean grinder and top opening milk fridge. With doors down.
  7. After taking some time off from Moccing, it's finally time to present my latest MOC! This modular building represents a traditional small german brewery as you can still find them in a lot of villages and towns all over the country - a village brewery, or "Dorfbrauerei" in german :). The brewery features the various tanks and coops required for the brewing process, a small bar/restaurant and a cosy beer garden outside - where a mighty old tree offers welcome shade in the summer time! The MOC sits on a 32x32 baseplate and is fully modular. Despite its rather small size, it consists of almost 3000 pieces - around 600 alone were required to build the tree! Let me take you on a quick tour through and around the building - more pictures can be found on flickr The attic. The annex with the brewery itself features fully brick-built windows. When the tree is otherwise occupied, you can get a better view of the facade facing the beer garden ;) Hope my 'small' MOC brings you as much joy as it brought me when building it! Cheers, Tobias
  8. So far I have seen topics on animals, disable minifigures, space sets and a new musical instrument topic. But I have yet to see one on food molds. I love the food molds. My favorite one is the pizza, which has been a staple food piece for ages. Recently, there have been a slew of other food pieces such as fruits, veggies and even bread pieces. But lemme know below what other food molds are out there or even give your ideas. Let's get this discussion up and running.
  9. The grand opera house was alive with the energy of the dress rehearsal. Alex, the director, was giving final instructions to Maria, the soprano, and Luca, the baritone. Michael, the conductor, raised his baton, and David, the pianist, began the overture, his fingers dancing over the keys. Isabella, the woman with a double bass, adjusted her instrument, ready to play. From the balcony, Clara, the opera review writer, observed everything with keen interest. As Maria and Luca's voices filled the auditorium in a beautiful duet, a small commotion started in the loft above the stage. Michael noticed it first, his eyes widening as he tried to keep his focus on conducting. Suddenly, a spider descended from the loft, dangling right in front of Maria. She let out a small yelp but continued singing, her professionalism shining through. Alex, trying to keep the mood light, whispered to the cast, "Looks like we have a new critic in the house!" The entire cast and crew burst into laughter, even Clara couldn't help but chuckle from her spot in the balcony. The spider, seemingly unimpressed with the performance, scurried back up to the loft, leaving everyone in good spirits. As the final notes echoed through the hall, Alex clapped his hands, signaling the end of the rehearsal. The cast and crew exchanged relieved smiles, knowing they had delivered a performance worthy of the grand stage, spider and all. *** Hello, I love architecture and I decided to design an opera house to Bricklink Designer Program Series 6: https://www.bricklink.com/v3/designer-program/series-6/2215/The-Opera---Dress-rehearsal My inspiration came from the opera houses of Budapest and Vienna. I tried to add many typical details, and decorations such as a combination of an arcade and a balcony on the front facade, statues, dormer windows, a brick-built light pole, light on the rear facade, planter etc.. The roof assembly and the auditorium balcony are removable and a big part of the rear wall is openable to make the interior space accessible. The foyer includes a bar combined with a box office, and a staircase to the auditorium and facade balconies. In the theatre there are a stage with a scenery and curtain, an orchestra with a brick-built grand piano, and an auditorium with balcony. All doors works. I prefer the brick built solutions to keep the flexibility of the used parts in further builds, therefore stickers are not used. The set includes 10 minifigures including the two gray statues on the facade and two animals. Dimensions of the building: Width: 34.1 studs / 10.7 in / 27.3 cm Length: 50.9 studs / 16.0 in / 40.7 cm Height: 29.2 studs / 9.2 in / 23.3 cm I hope you enjoy this set.

  10. Nocturnus - Settlement Index Description Nocturnus is home to an array of peculiar places, not in the last place due to its equally diverse population. This settlement index explores the many communities of Nocturnus, to aid those who seek to visit, trespass or find a place to settle in the Darklands. It may serve as a practical reference guide for building in or writing about a certain settlement. It provides a basic set of architectural, geographic and/or demographic background characteristics per settlement. Notes The described characteristics and features are an interpretation of what is seen and written in the build topic threads (in the first post). The given characteristics do NOT dictate what future builds of a settlement should look like; nothing is set in stone. What is considered in this index as a 'settlement' is determined by the sum of existing builds and lore; it is not defined by strict (build) requirements from the HSS. Settlements appearing on the map of Nocturnus automatically qualify to be indexed here. This topic will be updated to include more settlements, characteristics, builders, etc., based on newly posted topics. You can leave a comment below to bring new builds of indexed settlements under attention. The Map of Nocturnus Special Status Settlements Abyssian *Former Capital* Abyssian Castle is located at the centre of Nocturnian peninsula, in the Moruth Swamplands. It was the home of the late Guild Leader Lord Ssylirrlith and the throne of Nocturnus, before both were destroyed by the catastrophic explosion of the Orion Sphere.

  11. Hello to everyone! Today I would like to introduce my new modular:it is precisely a medieval driveway door placed on a baseplate with the road. On the ground floor there is the passage for cars that is narrower than the roadway and for this reason it has an alternating one-way system with the traffic light and signs indicating the prescribed speed and the bottleneck. The medieval gates have remained in place, probably restored and still functioning. Above the arch of the door there is a sculpture of a lion's head and the spotlights that illuminate the facade. On the right side there is the bell tower, used to sound the alarm in case of danger. Through the tower there is the pedestrian passage, also in this case the door with its locking system has remained. Inside, a pair of birds has nested and along the corridor there are several medieval coats of arms. Once outside above the door we can find a niche with a votive statuette. On this side there is also a cantilevered room with a wall that I imagined built in terracotta rather than stone like the rest of the building. Here I applied a sort of decoration with oblique tiles clearly inspired by the roof of Rivendell. On this side, above the portal I placed the coat of arms of a lion in a two-tone square and the usual spotlights to illuminate the facade. On the other side of the road there is a gate that gives access to the stairs that lead to the stands and the upper floor for possible tourist visits. Above is a room where the men-at-arms took shelter when necessary, there is a large fireplace that they used for cooking and warming up and the stairs to access the upper floor that have the typical central wear of very old stone stairs. Beyond the fireplace is a long room with a walled up door. Taking the stairs you access the top floor of the door. The battlements suggest that once the building ended with the terrace, but later the battlements were closed and the roof was built by adding another fireplace. On this floor you access the rope to operate the bell. Several construction techniques particularly excited me during the creation of the building. The first concerns the closing system of the doors. One thing I have often noticed is that during the Middle Ages, to allow a quick closing of very heavy doors, they misaligned the hinges. In this way the door remained tilted when it was open while when it needed to be closed, it was enough to move it and it closed almost by the force of gravity alone. The second one is about the round structure of the tower. I needed a rather small tower, maximum 7 studs wide and I had no choice but to try to do something new (I think). So by alternating and rotating modified bricks with the stud on the side, I somehow managed to obtain a structure that is not too uniform and variegated while still keeping it quite solid. The third one is about the roof built with two slopes using a relatively new piece, “Bar 1L with Angled Hollow Stud”. With this detail in mind I thought about the truss structure and built the boarding and the rest of the roof on top. The last one is the bell that I tried to make as in reality with the wooden counterweight to which it is fixed. Unfortunately I couldn't take any pictures because my camera is under repair. As soon as I get a chance, I'll upload them to the Flickr gallery. https://www.flickr.com/photos/kevin8/albums/72177720320925725/with/54046552451
  12. Hi EB followers. I've finished my most recent build. Predictably its another Art-Deco/Streamlined hotel building but I figured its been a few years since the last so I've had time to refine my ideas! It's called the Deluxe hotel and it's taken a couple of months to finalise due the constant changing of ideas in my mind in how I wanted it to look. It's not directly based of any paricular hotel but incorporates elements of many ones found in South Florida. Only a couple of images to show, the interior is quite shallow so I didn't bother with an interior this time. Anyway, comments and questions as always welcomed! You can find the images on my flickr here if you prefer. Regards! Andrew
  13. My brandnew LEGO IDEAS project is ready for your votes. Support here: LEGO IDEAS Looking forward to your strong support, if you like it - hopefully?! 😋😊 Don't hesitate to share it with your friends and other communities! Thx! 😘😘 The BRICK WATCH Lifeguard Headquarters consists of approx. 1800 parts! 🌴⛱
  14. My model is a city bus with New York City MTA livery. I have put more detail on this model comparing to the lego buses in current or past city sets. The reason to build this bus is to provide Lego fans specially to kids to have a Lego bus with the more realistic look. Bus is a popular vehicle type among children. I remember when I was a child, I always wanted to own a great looking lego bus. I believe I am not the only one who has same wish. I submit the project to LEGO Ideas. More pictures can be seen in the Lego Ideas link. I also uploaded the tutorial video to Youtube. I hope you like it and support my project. Thanks you :) Lego Ideas Link Youtube tutorial link My other MOC models: [MOC] New York City Police (NYPD) Car [MOC] Lego Mini Cooper [MOC] Japan Tokyo Taxi vol.1 東京無線タクシー [MOC] Ice Cream Truck [MOC] LEGO California Highway Patrol [MOC] LEGO Police Car [MOC] Police Motorcycle [MOC] New York City Taxi / Cab [MOC] LEGO NYC News Stand [MOC] New York City Transit Bus [MOC] Newspaper Rack [MOC] Coke/Beverage Cooler Initial D AE86 Racer AC Transit Bus AC Transit Bus Short Version Ice Cream Van
  15. An addition to the cannon. I'll be buying the parts to build this soon. You can see it at my BrickLink Stud.io page (link in signature), and if you download or view in 3D you will see the internal details through the open back for play/display - Winter Village style. Scaled to fit my short-form EN-style carriages (24-stud plate; also available at my Stud.io page, with other content including more train stuff) which are hauled by a modified PF'd Constitution engine. Suggestions for improvements welcome.
  16. Hi there, I'm barely active anymore but i finally finished my old WIP from the 4011 "Cabin Cruiser" remake from 1991. Its completely brick build without using hull elements. Fits about 6 Minifigs inside. For a scale comparisson i included a 1/43 scale model car i recently finished aswell. Hope you like it, comments and critics welcome, more pics will follow...

  17. My 5th entry for the Colossal Castle Contest, into the Village Life category. Credit for the pine tree design goes to Chris Maddison, who recently shared his design in a tutorial here. The build fits on a 48×48 baseplate, and three of the buildings have interiors (pull out rooms). Daydelon has plenty of excellent shops to meet your various needs. Brianna’s Bakery, Tryggr’s Supplies, and the Toy Shop are all located on the first stretch of the main street. Even in the winter the city keeps bustling, with the frozen river providing a great place for children to skate and the snow covered streets still see plenty of traffic from dog sleds and others. And as usual, you can find plenty more pictures on brickbuilt. Thank you for looking
  18. Introducing the Brick City Brewery which is modeled after Central City Brewery in Surrey, BC (https://c1.staticflickr.com/5/4757/39622017621_146820019c_z.jpg) Exterior is 100% complete, just waiting for pieces for the beer production to complete the interior, which features a tasting room and office.

  19. Have decided to recreate the location of the Hit Canadian TV show Kim's Convenience. The sign was made with Avery transparent label paper. Just waiting on some tan masonry brick to move forward with the project. Will have this shown publicly at the BrickCan event near Vancouver, BC in April \
  20. Hello everyone, in the near future I would like to show you a little bit of my Lego City, which is still under construction. To begin with, here is a video about the beach area I made yesterday. What do you think? Beach Area - Bricksonville Edit: latest video added (17.07.)
  21. Happy new year to everyone, new year and new moc: the Dock Inn. This is my first "corner" MOC (maybe inverted...). The building id comprised of three floors. On the first floor there is the Dock Inn with a small courtyard and a little berceau. At the second floor you can find the rooms for the guests of the inn and at the third floor there is the apartment of the old Captain Nemo, the guy that owns and manages the inn. At the ground floor besides in the courtyard next to the dinner tables for the guests of the inn you can see a little well (maybe used in past days by smugglers). Next to the entrance to the inn there's a sacred niche and the door to the upper levels. On the upper floors the captain with his parrot, big blue windows, elegant flowerpots and a small pergola. What's the use for the suspended small green house? Actually it's not suspended, it's connected with a MOC to come: a build in front of the inn I'm working on. And this is also the cause for part of the dock to be made in red bricks... Here follow some additional pictures where you can see the Dock's Inn linked to the Fish ahn Sea Shop (my previous MOC - https://www.eurobricks.com/forum/index.php?/forums/topic/156005-moc-fishsea-shop/&tab=comments#comment-2878294). Hope you like both of them! Once more, happy new year and let me know your thoughts. : )
  22. Dear Lego, We know you design sets in advance, and it's very likely we'll see another lineup of fire sets for city. In conversations with other Lego fire builders, we humbly submit 5 requests regarding that theme. Thank you, in advance, for your consideration. 1. It's time for a new air tank mold. The double-airtank Lego mold is now 40 years old and inaccurate. It's probably time for an update. Firefighters in the United States (and around the world) use airtanks that are a single tank, not a double tank. See this photo 2. It's time for a more modern stretcher (Stokes basket). The Lego stretcher piece is from WWI. We're now 100 years past that technology. We'd really appreciate a Stokes basket piece. 3. We're desperate for lift doors in sizes other than just 4-tall. A 2-studs-tall (4 wide) version would be awesome. Also, we need them in red. The ones on Bricklink are going for $25+ EACH! 4. We'd like a 6-wide windscreen piece that's not sloped. This part – but in a 6-wide version. 5. This one is optional, but would be awesome. How about yellow printing on a black helmet? This is the standard helmet for firefighters in much of the U.S. One way to address this would be to release a collectable American firefighter minifig. It's strange that in all the collectible minifigs, there isn't a firefighter. Thank you for reading this and considering these requests. -Steven Asbury (and members of the Lego fire community)
  23. Hello all. I've finally completed my last build of the year with Kahuka's Koffee. A building influenced predominantly by neo-classical architecture. It has taken about 3 months to complete. I've wanted to try my hand at more varied styles of architecture. It's been 4 years since I last had a go at a classical style. The problem I find with this style is that it tends to be all one or very few colours and it makes picking out details more difficult so I've opted to vary the colours of floors and put highlights in where I could. I wanted to include a rounded roof mainly to finally use the PAB cup full of 1x4 slopes in black I got a while back. I also was keen to incorporate balconies and many arches - common in classical architecture. There is an interior but only for the ground level floor (Said here in the UK), but I've not chosen to build upper floors as it would take too long and frankly I just didn't have enough plates to build another 5 floors If you're wondering why it's called Kahuka's Koffee, there is a subtle hint of the Islanders theme in the facade. I've included a slightly updated version of my streamlined delivery van which I made some years ago to give some busyness feeling to the street. Anyway here's all 9 pics; If you wish to view them at flickr my stream is here: https://www.flickr.com/photos/52656812@N04/ If you have any questions about techniques I used or any comments please feel free. Cheers!

  25. As a classic Town set, 6380 Emergency Treatment Center did not have a back to the building. I've modded the building in order to have a full interior while trying to keep the original recognizable. This is a WIP and I'll update when I have more to it. When finished, it will have a front and back entrance, reception area, patient exam room, bathroom, doctor's office, and break area.
