Head Lopper Brickheads
About a year ago, I fell in love with Andrew MacLean’s Head Lopper. It’s the tale of a conan-like figure, Norgal, who travels the land dispatching evil. Often separating them from their heads.

Way back in the beginning of the year, I had trophies to build. As the steampunk theme coordinator, I take some pride in building trophies that would look good up on the mantel. That lead me to building my first folding cube. Continue reading Folding Cube

They are one of my favorite LEGO blogs and a solid influence on the way that I write about my hobby, so I jumped at the opportunity. I wasn’t alone in wanting to test my skills, so it was lovely to be chosen to receive a bag of Nexogons. Continue reading Coronae Softworks
