Er0l .
[Edit, 23 August 2015] New pic of the yacht afloat:
a first vessel. It's supposed to be one of those fast commuter yachts of the Roaring Twenties. The yacht is 60 studs long, width is 12 studs. It's equipped with some PF and 9 Volt lighting (navigation lights and interior).
The build is strongly inspired by Joshua's (JBIronWorks') amazing commuter yacht "Mohican", see https://www.flickr.c...06/15357970010/
Some more pics on my Flickr . Thanks for looking, c&c welcome as usual.

It looks amazing how you managed to get the nice elongated shape of the hull. It looks very elegant. I wouldn't mind enjoying a sunset on those chairs at the back. They took very comfortable.

Wow! Best MOC I've seen a very long time. Any pictures of the construction? I'm really interested in understanding what techniques are used to make a curved hull like that.

You've managed to create some superb lines to the vessel. Excellent!

AWESOME 'ER0L'.......it has a 1930's feel to it.......Brick On 'ER0L' (keep the awesomeness coming) !
Many thanks LT! Getting a big red "awesome" from you means a lot.
Many thanks.
Glad you like it that much! Just to give an impression of the hull technique:
By varying the length of the liftarms you get the shape of the hull.
Hi ER0L! it's a beautiful MOC! How do you have use to make this hull? Sorry for my english, it's a very shi... :o)
Thank you! Hull see above.
Extremely beautiful ship - very well done. World class! Bodensee?

The Brothers Brick
World's no. 1 source for lego news, reviews, and fan creations., tag archives: russia, st. basil’s cathedral is bursting with colour.
Koen Zwanenburg has built this incredible recreation of the iconic Russian cathedral. The dark orange with hints of teal are the most prominent colours in the structure, however, it is the spires that really draw in the eye. Each has its own unique colour scheme and design from jagged blocky shapes to smooth flowing textures. Koen has found inventive ways to represent the swirling patterns of the spires as green minifigure arms are even used in one of the peaks.
Round the back of the display, horned tendrils portray more of the complex designs of the spires. After looking at the building for some time, the structure shares some similarities with gingerbread houses, mainly thanks to the white trim and vibrant colours used in this creation.

The Soviet ZIL-E167 can handle any terrain you throw at it
It’s a little cold in my LEGO room so I turned up the heat and put on a sweater. That leads me to believe that I probably don’t have what it takes to handle the real cold like what they have in Siberia and Urals. There’s a reason there are so many jokes about vodka drinking you in Russia or whatever. Tough terrain means tough people and tough vehicles. Thankfully, SarielLego has what it takes to handle any terrain as evidenced by this remote-controlled ZIL-E167. I’m loving the beefy tires, the orange color, the overall rugged shape, even the little moose decal is rather charming.

Tough and mean and olive green! Hoorah!
The reason the original castle set from 1978 was yellow and not gray is that LEGO didn’t want to encourage kids to build military stuff. All that changed with the abundance of gray in the Star Wars sets. Still they had similar hesitancy with olive green. It took the Pixar Cars line in 2011 to introduce the color and military builders rejoiced. So there, the joke is on you, LEGO! (That was much funnier when I thought of it earlier today.) While this particular shade of green is now available in many sets, it’s still a difficult color to amass in large quantities. That is just one of many reasons why this rough and tumble Soviet Ural-375D by Rolands Kirpis is so impressive. Another reason is each axle and the steering functions are run by Power Functions motors. It took a year to collect all the right parts to build this model but the end result is as mighty as the Ural mountains.
LEGO Soyuz launcher stands 1.25m high and took a year and a half to build
Since it’s first flight in 1966, the Russian Soyuz rocket system has become the world’s most frequently used launch vehicle. With over 1,700 flights in 50 years, this Russian stalwart has hauled cosmonauts, satellites, and cargo aloft, with its relatively simple design creating an enviable reliability record. However, this LEGO version of the latest Fregat version of the Soyuz is anything but simple — Jussi Koskinen has pulled out all the stops to capture every last feature of the spacecraft’s detailing. The scale of the effort involved is impressive — the model took 18 months to put together, and measures over 1.25m.
The overall structure of this massive model is excellent, and the shaping and angles on the lower boosters are particularly good. The smaller details are worth a look too — don’t miss the texturing around the base of the boosters, the scaffold-style connection between stages, and the nice integration of the Russian flag into the upper stage’s colour scheme. This formidable model wouldn’t look out of place on display beside the LEGO Ideas Saturn 5 set, and that’s high praise indeed.
Colorfully camoflauged Sukhoi SU-34 Fighter-bomber
I’ve always wondered why we don’t paint our military jets with blue camouflage so they blend in with the blue sky. Well, after a quick Google search, it appears that the Russians thought the same thing, because the wonderful camoflauge pattern on this Sukhoi SU-34 by ModernBrix is indeed accurate to the real-life jet . It’s an excellent choice, because we rarely see this type of camouflage pattern recreated in LEGO.
Camouflage aside, the shaping is outstanding, especially on the cockpit and fuselage. The builder has also managed to fit side-by-side seating for two pilots in the cockpit — an uncommon feature the Sukhoi is known for — which eliminates the need for duplicate instruments required in the front and back of tandem seat fighter jets.
Nine chapels of St. Basil’s Cathedral are a marvelous example of LEGO microscale architecture
Markus Rollbühler is a LEGO product designer based in Billund, Denmark. Despite spending his weekdays working with LEGO pieces, Markus challenges himself to build microscale versions of the world’s most famous cathedrals in his spare time. His very special series of architectural masterpieces featuring Frauenkirche Dresden and Santa Maria della Salute is now joined by a marvelous copy of St. Basil’s Cathedral in Moscow, Russia.
St. Basil’s Cathedral is famous for its nine chapels of vibrant colors. Markus did an amazing job recreating each of them in a unique building style using bricks, hoses, slopes, and tiles of over a dozen different colors. However, the most genius trick of the build is nine sonic screwdrivers right from Doctor Who sets used as crosses on top of the chapels.
And, of course, the cathedral is totally worth checking out from all angles — make sure you visit Markus’ photosream for more high-res pictures!
Flying the unfriendly skies
From his Flickr stream, it’s clear that builder arwen qiea is a Cold War military vehicle buff. It’s an impressive portfolio of (mostly Soviet) tanks, missile carriers and navy vessels from the 50s and 60s. But his gigantic airplanes kind of steal the limelight! Here’s his latest one, a model of the Soviet TU-135, an experimental supersonic bomber from that era.
From that angle, the TU-135 seems almost as sleek as a modern Russian fighter jet. But from a higher vantage point you can see why it was nicknamed the “flying wing”.
So that’s a pretty big plane, right? Nope. THIS is a big plane…
…say hello to the Russian Antonov AN-22, probably the largest turboprop ever built. And the big builds don’t stop there. His version of the Lockheed C5a Galaxy (a heavy transport used by the USAF) is so big it literally eats other LEGO models for breakfast!
And here it is, digesting its meal of tanks and other armaments:

It is a 45 centimeter very modern and ultra minimalistic Sailing Yacht. I wanted to make something quite authentic and also esthetic. I worked mainly on the shell front. My goal was to find the harmony between an advanced design to build realistic curves and to remain into the LEGO universe. I did firstly a design trial of my ship.
