Pirates are kinky

November 23, 2008 – 3:31 pm

I got a laugh when I found the Whipping out the brick Lego group on Flickr, I got a big laugh. Then I got inspired. I just had to build something to go in the group. I mean why not, Lego doesn’t always have to be kid friendly.
When Jones “forgets” the oars, the captain is [...]

Shipwreck Treasure Cave

November 18, 2008 – 9:22 am

Inspired by Lego set 6253 Shipwreck Hideout I had to build my own version. I took the general concept and beefed it up a little bit. Most of the pieces come from 2 of the 6253 sets, but a mast or two and the rear hull come from my collection. Overall, the rock island [...]

Lego Set 7048 Troll Warship

July 9, 2008 – 10:27 am

I recently had the pleasure of buying the Lego set 7048, Troll Warship. What immediately caught my attention to the set was just how much you get for your money. The set contains 6 troll warriors that I’ve come to think of as Orcs. It also contains a very cool armored dragon, knight, troll, and [...]

When Hell Freezes Over

November 13, 2007 – 9:36 pm

My tree hugging, anti video gaming wife surprised me today. When she came home and found I had brought work home, something luckily I rarely have to do these days, she fired up the 360, logged into the profile we set up for her last night when we were racing in Forza Motorsport 2 (another [...]

Belated. . .

November 1, 2007 – 4:49 pm

I’d make a horrible Dad. I know it. Know why? Got any clues? Well, in 2006 on 10-25 at 9:57 P.M. I posted my first article here on Brickblog. Why, I remember when this blog was still in diapers, I was excited to get 1 visit after posting oh so many articles. To date, I’m [...]

Fog Machine and Lego

October 7, 2007 – 5:08 pm

I picked up a small fog machine this weekend. I saw an example of usefulness in photography recently and just had to get one. Most likely it will help me add mood to my Lego scenes.
The setup was fairly straight forward, but required some dialing in. I have a D40 and an SB-600 flash. [...]
