LEGO goodies: Issue 1

So I've gotten off my lazy arse and actually took pictures of some of the LEGO creations I've been working on. I'll start you off with this one. Look for more in the coming week.

For the NoVVember Vic Viper celebration:


Here's a top view:


If you want just the pics, you can view my Flickr photostream.

Now I've gone and done it

Not only have I actually put together a LEGO MOC, photographed it, and published it, but I submitted it for a contest. Click on the picture over there to see the details. All the entries are posted here. Or you can skip right to my submission. The contest is being judged by Jake von Slatt of The Steampunk Workshop. I recall seeing his amazing Steampunk Keyboard Mod a while ago. This guy is totally steampunk.

Anyway, here's a taste:


On another tangent, while being inspired by this contest, I decided to get all geeky and start researching steampunk and actual steam engines. Facscinating stuff. If I ever get to build my Puddle Duck Racer, it would be really cool to add a steam engine like this.

Blown away

My 5 year old son blew me away this morning. He made his own Lego spaceship, all by himself! He identified all the parts and it was really cool. As soon as I download the pics, I'll put them up. I knew that he enjoyed the stuff I made, but it's a special thrill to see him create his own.

Cruise Liner

I am finally starting to take photos of my Lego creations, MOCs, in the parlance of Legoheads (My Own Creation). Here is a cruise liner I did. I promise my pictures and my designs will get better as I practice. You can view more pics here
