"Fins!" exclaimed the designer as he drunkenly drew up the design. "Fins, fins and more fins! These triangle parts are fantastic!" The more he used them, the more ideas he came up with until the entire craft was built of them.

Pretty soon a young adventurer bought the nonsensical craft to slay some sort of brick monster. "What an odd idea", thought the designer to himself, "why would anyone need to take on a brick monster? Wouldn't it be immobile anyways? Plus using such a ridiculous craft would surely be overkill."

Some time later, the news had filtered back to him. The monster had crumbled under the sheer weight of its own ego. "Pah!" he said, "I knew he didn't even need to try!"

My second entry into the Iron Builder challenge. I realized today that when it comes to following a plan, I fail. This started as a dune buggy. Imagine that!

Also, this was really hard to photograph. These angles really don't do it justice.

For some reason, scientist and engineers in the future have a strange fascination with chickens and their body shape. As a result, they have churned out numerous, fairly useless, mechs which bare a slight resemblance to a chicken.

My first entry for the current Iron Builder Challenge. I used all 16 of the fins, 8 for the rib parts and 8 for the ring at the back. I feel a bit rusty but now that I've worked with the part I have plenty of ideas to try out.

Things will have to wait for next weekend when I can migrate from my apartment to my parents' place where all the lego is at. Just you wait Monsterbrick, I'll take on your prolificness with epicness!

Also, as you may be able to tell, certain parts were taken inspired by Fate and Wimbe.

I wanted to try this cherry blossom idea out for a while. Also thought I'd try the grass ida as well.

A bio-mechanical probe sent to far off worlds in search for a tolerable environment for the aquatic life forms that float through space in their mothership. Lightly armed, this probe is designed for fast scanning and quick skirmishes. It's capable of diving to the bottom of the deepest oceans, withstanding enormous pressure with it's hard shell and oxygenating outer ring.

I first tried to make use of those launchers to add some playability to this however, after 3 hours of searching for matching missiles, I gave up. I'm astonished that I don't have two similar enough that I could pass them off in a photograph.
