Royal Vay Dragon, An Amazing MOC Creature

Sometimes we see LEGO creations that are more than simple MOC pieces, more like art pieces built using LEGO elements. This one is an example for such a creation. LEGO fan and flick.com user Jayfa a.k.a. jayfa_mocs recently shared this amaing dragon model which is built in Red-Green-Gold colorscheme based on Christmas theme. The part usage and the shaping of all elemensts are done perfectly as well as the facial expression of the creature and posing of the limbs.

Coming Home to Santa Fe by Nannan Zhang



This absolutely beautiful and incredibly well shaped modern house MOC was built by Nannan Zhang who is no doubt one of the best MOC'ers in the world. The curves on this thing is relly stunning. The coloring and the textures are incredible as well. The MOC looks amazing from every angle. This could be the highest level for a hause MOC. I also really like the triangular tile floor at the back of the house as well.

LEGO fan and flickr.com user Rocco Buttliere who is known for his great micro-scale architecture-line style MOC's recently shared this amazing micro model of the Golden Gate Bridge, an iconic structure from USA. I'm really amazed by the construction techniques used by the builder. Thousands of detail pieces like connectors, hoses, pins and many Technic pieces are used besides standard parts for form the details of the bridge and the outcome is just perfect for its scale. Don't forget to check out the builders photo-stream for more photos of this beautiful MOC and his many other great micro-builds.

Island of Catan by Simon NH


LEGO Fan and flickr.com member Simon NH created a MOC that is full of different texturing techniques and well-designed brick built water effect. Two islands which have two different buildings on it has connected with a small wooden bridge. The Church has a roof with well known yellow hand piece technique. Color selection of wall section for church is impressive. The house which has roof room section that is builded by boat pieces has stunning ruined stone wall technique. Just like every piece in this building try to make this building impressive. I also liked the small wave effect near to the harbor. Island of Catan is a masterpiece!

LEGO Fan and flickr.com member bigboy99899 created brillant MOC with some light effects and dozens of white pieces to create Emotions: Winter. I think this is the realistic winter scene I have ever seen was built by LEGO pieces. Leaves with snow loads simulate perfectly, snowy roof design and light effects are impressive too. This MOC totally makes me excited to create a snowy MOC.

Hotel Lobby Vignette by Sven Franic


It is hard to create so much details in a vignette but Sven Franic has did it perfectly. Sven created 16x16 Hotel Lobby Vignette which has neat wall technique and awesomely built keyholder cabinet for reception. I mostly liked the luggage rack and leather couch. Color-scheme is also brillant.

Nightmare Before Christmas by César Soares


LEGO Fan and flickr.com user César Soares (aka Cesbrick) created a MOC about his favorite movie, Tim Burton's The Nightmare Before Christmas. Movie is perfect but César present us so many different & new techniques in such a small creation. There is an impressive technique that uses many Thor hammers to create perfect looking cobblestone street. And also hook with towball pieces used to create a different sitting bench.

Believe me. This is made of LEGO.

At first sight I didn't believe myself that this sailing ship is made of LEGO bricks myself but this is really made of LEGO bricks and this is fantastic! The creator of this work of art, Hoang H Dang a.k.a. Know Your Pieces wrote in the description of the photo that the curve of the hull was possible due to the tolerances (gaps) between LEGO elements. Actually this boat is really huge and consist around 7000 pieces. Check out this photo to get how large this creation is. With the impressive size and amazing shape this MOC becomes my all time favorite LEGO ship.

LEGO sci-fi master builder and flickr.com user Brian Kescenovitz shared today this impressive mech model M251 Ridgway in his photo-stream. The shaping of the body and limbs are done greatly. The mech has a clean design without any exposed studs. Feet of the mech are built using droid arms and other small detail pieces which is not very common for mechs. I especially like the usage of chainsaw pieces in the legs which is really creative. I also like the cockpit section that make the mech look like a walking tank.

Ghost of Kurosawa by Lu Sim

LEGO fan and flickr member Lu Sim a.k.a. Messymaru shared this outstanding mech, QU-KRSW G Kurosawa in his photo-stream. According to the description this is a tribute build to custom designer toy maker Quiccs' original character, the Ghost of Kurosawa. I especially like that the garage door pieces are used as the sword blades which is really creative. Small white colored details like animal  parts and utensil pieces makes this design unique. The leg design looks also great.

Iridium Dawn by Nick Trotta


I accept that it is not the most recent post by the incredible Nick Trotta  but also there isn't any rule about posting a year old creation especially when it is 'especially' awesome. I am glad that Nick is not lazy about posting "how to" videos of his extremely complex space crafts but even if I watched all of them multiple times I couldn't understand a single bit of any of his builds. Sometimes I think he can build so awesome because he is an alien with a super developed brain or maybe I am just not clever enough to get what he is doing. At the end I decided to go with the first option and convinced myself that he is an alien since there are no builders building like he does. I additionally thank Nick for sharing this unbelievable Iridium Dawn and also being so awesome. Many thanks Nick, you are always welcome in our humble planet!

LEGO fan and model car master builder Firas Abu-Jaber has shared his latest car, a Rolls Royce Springfield Silver Ghost Playboy Roadster in his flickr.com photo-stream.

The Glade Fort by Tirrell Brown

https://www.flickr.com/photos/129722661@N05/25200209961/in/dateposted/
Eurobricks.com and flickr.com member Tirrell Brown a.k.a. Blufiji shared this amazing fantasy themed fort built for the Guilds of Historica of Eurobricks the in his photo-stream. The vegetation and the building techniques used for the fortress are really impressive. The color combination and part selection are also done greatly. I used to see nicely shaped round towers in castle MOC's but I especially like how the wooden (reddish brown) sections of the towers are made. All things together this creation becomes a wonderful swamp MOC!

A Warm Breeze from the Orient

LEGO fan and flickr.com member brickbink shared these two great oriental building MOC's in his photo-stream. Both of the MOC's a are designed greatly using different texturing techniques. White motives on the mosque walls are done nicely with small arch pieces which is unique for this MOC. The color selection is very well done in both MOC's 

I especially like the door section on this one. Using different sizes of arch pieces together to create a oriental looking gate is a great idea The terrain is also textured and detailed with small plants. I like this tree more than the tree in the mosque because the other one has a circular hole on the trunk.
