Going On Holiday With Lego

Getting Carried Away on Holiday, Lego MOC

This is “Getting Carried Away on Holiday” a Lego creation built by Ted Andes. A humorous scene with a bunch of out-of-towners getting caught up in some sheep. There is a lot going on here. The European style cottage is a great build on its own. With a gray sloped roof and very clean white walls. The white Lego snake piece used for chimney smoke is a great detail. The farm grounds, and the small street in front look like the proper scale. And the herd of sheep are great. These little animals have exposed studs recreating their wool fur. A great example of using texture in a Lego build. The best detail might just be the brick built background. With giant 3D clouds and an ocean horizon, it helps establish the rest of the scene. The barge in perspective is just genius.

Shaun At The Sheepyard

Shaun At The Sheepyard - Lego MOC

Shaun the Sheep is hanging out with his friends at this Lego Sheepyard. Shaun is the star of his own television show which first aired in 2007. Although you can find Shaun starring in the Wallace and Gromit: A Close Shave short film all the way back in 1995. This Lego Sheepyard is creation of Piotr. Featuring six completely unique sheep. Each one is a different shape, and has various head details. The pink bow, and the hedge fence in the background are both great details. This is a very cute Lego MOC. The only thing missing from this flock is a sheep dog. Specifically Bitzer.

Clean Up Your Farm With Lego Stardew Valley

Lego Stardew Valley Farm MOC

Stardew Valley is a modern day classic video game about managing and running a farm. Heavily influenced by the Harvest Moon series, Stardew Valley has surpassed it in every way. Starting the game with an old run down farm, and eventually turning it into a virtual paradise is surprisingly relaxing. The Brick Art has created a great Lego Stardew Valley MOC for Lego Ideas. Here 1568 pieces combine into a modular farm. The huge selling point is the upgradable buildings and land. The whole build has also been built to scale, doing its best to match the video game. There has also been considerations taken to be able to add on or expand the farm. Maybe some day the local town, caves, and coast, will be created…

An American Gothic Lego Mosaic

Cole Edmonson's Lego Mosaic American Gothic

American Gothic is one of the most iconic paintings of the 20th century. It has been recreated and reimagined in almost every way imaginable. Cole Edmonson has created a huge Lego mosaic of the painting. It measures in at 36.25″ x 30″ which makes it a little larger then the original painting. It’s always good to see a Lego mosaic in actual bricks rather then computer rendered.
