 | | Calling all Sculpture, Micro and Mosaic builders for NWBrickCon
|
| Calling all Sculpture, Art, Mosaic and Micro-fans! If you're heading to the NWBrickCon over the Halloween weekend, I would like to hear from you. I am serving as the light-duty-coordinator for these areas and if you plan to bring something please (...)

| I'm actually not really sure where this would go, so I took my best guess. At the LEGO Roadshow in Dallas (and most likely at all the other Roadshow locations), there were displays of creations by LEGO employees. In particular, there was this one (...)

|
| (...) Thanks! They're my favorite part of the whole model, and I'm glad the folks at LPL liked the idea of using clear. (Versus their original suggestion to use white.) If the model were completely opaque, it would just look like a boring big ol' (...) (20 years ago, 22-Sep-04, to lugnet.build.sculpture, FTX)

| (...) Impressive effort, let's hope they don't pick somewhere sunny to display it. Glad it was you and not me gluing the transparent bricks together. (20 years ago, 22-Sep-04, to lugnet.build.sculpture, FTX)

|
| (...) Hey Sean, Great work! Very cool look with the clear bricks too. Is it illuminated from within at all? I know what you mean about the difficulty of gluing clear elements. Don't know if you remember me from one of your visits to Legoland. I was (...) (20 years ago, 22-Sep-04, to lugnet.build.sculpture, FTX)

|
| Hi, everyone. In July, a company called LPL Financial Services contracted me to build their logo out of LEGO for an event they were hosting in August. The final model is 32,000 pieces and 24 cubic feet. (2 URLs) Read all about it : (URL) Their logo (...) (20 years ago, 21-Sep-04, to lugnet.announce.moc, lugnet.build.sculpture, FTX) !

|
| (...) Thanks for the kind words. I'll agree that the hands are not too aesthetically pleasing. But, I'll have to disagree with both you and Lenny about the scale. The last thing this thing is trying to achieve is realism, and with the head as large (...) (20 years ago, 2-Sep-04, to lugnet.build.sculpture, FTX)
| | | | | Re: Captain Cool Guy
|
| (...) Hey, this thing is awesome! I agree with Lenny about the hands though. At four wide, they seem just a trifle too wide, not so much too big, as they should be oversized, but not proportioned right. Another option in tan might be to use minifig (...)

| | | | | Re: Captain Cool Guy
|
| (...) I don't know of any alternative in tan. I was working with what I had, damn you. As for the scale, oversize head, hands, and feet equal goofy to me, which was what I was going for. (...) I have no further plans for this guy (except your better (...) (20 years ago, 30-Aug-04, to lugnet.build.sculpture, FTX)

| | | | | Re: Captain Cool Guy
|
| (...) The only thing I don't like is the hands. I've never been a fan of minifig legs as hands - and at your scale, his hand should probably be closer to three wide than four wide. but i should emphasize that it is the ONLY thing I dont like. As in (...) (20 years ago, 30-Aug-04, to lugnet.build.sculpture, FTX)

I moved from New York to Austin this past winter, and it took forever before my LEGO workshop was finally set up and sorted out. I've also just finished working (...)

| | | | | What to call this scale?
|
| Check out this really neat folder on Brickshelf: (URL) creator calls it "microscale" but I think most would agree it's not really microscale (smaller than minifig scale). Instead these animals are sculpted at a scale much closer to real than minifig (...) (20 years ago, 30-Jul-04, to lugnet.general, lugnet.build, lugnet.build.microscale, lugnet.build.sculpture)

| (...) Hmmm, let's see. Small four stringed instrument. That's not a guitar. That's a ukelele! A very nicely modelled ukelele though, although perhaps the 'waist' is a little narrow. Gettin' soulfull with that ukelele! (URL) Allister (20 years ago, 28-Jul-04, to lugnet.build.sculpture, FTX)
