Lucy in the Wardrobe with Fauns

DARKspawn has a great Narnia vig called What Lucy Found There. The construction of Mr. Tumnus is particularly clever.

Cheating

Hmm, this really belongs on Scaled up LEGO bricks, but this diver scene from (apparently) the Children's Museum in Winnipeg is a giant version of a vig. In a related theme, Joniis has a Coral reef expedition bignette.

Ravenous

Unfortunately I can't link images off of the Lowlug site, so when they hold their periodic Mini-MOC-Madness contests, I have to wait until people post their creations on Brickshelf, Flickr, or some other site, to have anything other than text here. Anyway, Jovel has recently posted Oh what fun, a ravine (second place entry in the "Vacation" contest) and Tornado (fourth place entry in the "Weather" contest). It looks like time for the next contest, with the theme "Gladly that I file" (hmm, that's what Babelfish gives me; maybe someone could leave a comment with a better translation). --Update: Marakoeschtra has let me know that it should be "Gladly that I drive."-- Keep tuned for entries and winners from the new contest.

Mr. Sandman, send me a dream

If you've ever read the Sandman graphic novels you'll love this series of MOCs by Shane Larson, including a vig, On the Shores of Night.

It's a small, square world after all

At the 1000SteineLand event in Berlin, someone (a MALUG member?) presented a series of Nation vigs, such as China and Germany. I really like the mosaic backgrounds in these.

Hey, it's a MOCbox!

Haven't seen one of these since Nelson posted his original idea. Nannan Z presents a MOCbox called Trapped.

Witness Mr. Henry Bemis

Another great series by Alex Eylar focuses on episodes from the Twilight Zone, including Time Enough at Last and Nightmare at 20,000 Feet. Update: here's the MOCpage.

Creative transport

Over on Lugpol, the Polish LEGO forum, there is a Brick Transport Tycoon contest, challenging members to build transportation MOCs. Hippotam got very creative, building Rapid Transfer Gate 33.

And the bantha played on

A couple of quick vigs. "Castle" has a great bantha in C3PO (presumably a golden C3PO raffle entry).

Sibley has a self portrait.

Happy birthday!

August 16 will be the first anniversary of the founding of Forum 0937, a Portuguese LEGO forum (though there is also an international section for English readers). To celebrate, they are having a First Anniversary Contest. In one entry, EvilDead has Joe Vig lighting the anniversary candle, though he's got a surprise in store for him.

In another, Marisa present the Anniversary Party

Chronicles of Vigdain

Maniac000 presents a scene from Prydain. As he describes it, on the border of Annuvin, one of Arawn's deathless warriors takes a peek at the world beyond the wasteland he calls home.

Thor

I couldn't link the images from the recent Lowlug Mini Moc Madness contest, which Mahjqa won with "Singing in the Rain", but Martin Jaspers just posted his 2nd place entry Germanic storm on Brickshelf. Be sure to check out all of the great entries.
