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…
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…
This was sort of an exercise in using organic shapes for a building. Though complicated, the concave surfaces and the three pronged shape were manageable. Finishing up the top by fitting a roof was a whole different matter though, and I’m not actually very happy with how it turned out. Ok, but not great. Still,…
The original article, “Han bygger stora byggnadsverk i miniatyr”, appeared today in Sydsvenskan, a local Swedish newspaper. Below is a translation of the article into English. He builds great architecture in miniature By Alf Sjögren Published 22 January 2017 Emil LidĂ© has built the Lund Cathedral in Lego. Now his clever, small-scale builds have begun…
While dabbling in microscale for other projects I decided to build a micro of the cathedral in my home town. The cathedral is basically an old design of mine with some minor changes, but adding the surroundings made quite a difference. This build was featured by The Brothers Brick. You can read more about it here.
The red cottage with white corners has always been the epitome of the Swedish idyll. This is an entry to Swebrick’s Micropolis competition in which it claimed 2nd place! This build was featured by The Brothers Brick. You can read more about it here.
Was experimenting with micro trees for a planned build the other day when I saw this cool technique for a base posted by o0ger, and I just had to use it to make some mini landscapes. Ended up with a few seasonal vignettes and I thought I might as well share them 🙂 Enjoy! And…
This is a short tutorial showcasing a technique for building microscale trees. This technique was used to build most of the trees in my MOC Avalonian Countryside. This tutorial was also shared by The Brothers Brick. You can check it out here. What you need The pieces needed are shown above. The centerpiece of the tree is…
