Once in a while you may find yourself apart from your Lego collection for longer periods of time. For me, these are the times to experiment in one of the many digital Lego designer tools that are around! In this case I decided to try my hand at creating realistic rockwork in DBG (Dark Bluish…
Made a series of 7 different microscale trees as a fun exercise and also to get myself back into building more again 🙂 Hope you like them! This first one utilises the stem with 3 leaves in conjunction with the plate with 3 leaves. I have not worked with the stem piece before, but got…
A tutorial showing how to make a tree made mostly out of travis bricks and 1×1 plates in your colour of choice (I went with dark green). It’s quite simple but still has a rather organic shape to it. There is a bit of a pattern in it, but this can be fixed by alternating…
Put some colour on my travis tree, to see if it could become something more useful. Not so sure about the result actually, but it could probably fit in with other micro trees in a forest or something 🙂
Tried out building in single colour today, with a tree made mostly out of travis bricks. This is a pretty tiny build, but I can imagine working in a single colour becomes very different when building on a larger scale.
A microscale cherry blossom. The street outside our house is lined with these, so every Spring we get to enjoy an overdose of beautiful white flowers 🙂 A rather simple build as Autumn break is upon us, and lego time is limited 😉 From what I’ve seen 3742c01 – Plant Flower Small, 4 on Sprue…
As the fireworks of autumn fizzles out the majestic serenity of the winter wonderland promptly replaces it. But actually, there’s about two months’ worth of cold, grey and dreary darkness in between, but let’s skip that this year 🙂 Just like my autumn build this is all about the trees, made from 13564 – Cattle…
There are few things that can compare to the dazzling show of vivid colors that is the autumn foliage. This is definitely the most detailed 8×8 build I’ve ever made. The star of the show here is the 13564 – Cattle Horn – Long in Reddish Brown. When I ordered it I knew I wanted…
A palm tree on a tropical island. A repeat of the bright green barb! 16770 – Barb / Claw / Horn – Large with Clip in Bright Green This is basically utilising the same technique as my previous barb tree, but reduced to two layers which makes a nice palm tree. Tropical island – bonus…
Receiving bricks is always an interesting experience. Lately I have received quite a few new bricks, both from orders where I have chosen the pieces, but also a number of random pieces which, in many cases, I have no idea what to do with. And even for some of the ordered elements I’m still not…
