Most of my builds are either sets of subjects I like or a few MOC’s. That being said, I tend to rework or re-engineer most for the sets I buy, to look better. -IMHO
I do have some ongoing projects. The largest being the “Batman Beyond” Batcave. Others are the Punisher Van that Jeff and I worked on together. And a few more.
I do Lego as a distraction from my scale modeling hobby, which is a distraction from my crazy work schedule. I build because for a scale model builder, Lego is like fast food for my creativity. I.E., no glueing, sanding, or painting. We have a small room set aside for lego stuff. Certain themes appeal to me; The Lego City Arctic is way too close to the base from John Carpenter’s “The Thing” that I dove right into it. I got into Lego City police, because of the “Lego City Undercover” game for WiiU and the 60007 Chase McCain set, -amazing truck, -Though I want to build my own police building Moc in a color other than white. I’m a big D.C. guy So I was all over those sets. And the Lego Batman 3 video game made me want to drink more of the proverbial Cool-Aid when the next round of sets come out next year. The one theme that sucked me in, that I didn’t expect was older Ninjago sets. I’m a big fantasy fan. And just for kicks while on the exercise bike one day put Ninjago on Netflix. It was OK as a show, but enough of a distraction from my workout that I wanted the dragons and the Ninjago Fire Temple set 2507 <—really nice asian themed architecture. I want a nice city street. But the time for that will come…
I like sharing my MOC’s with friends and you peeps in the LUG. I’m more than a little apprehensive to leave something on display in a public place unattended.
That’s were I stand and why i do it….
