Monofigure Habitats #6

Tuesday, 4th May 2021 By Caz

The next three installments of my Monofigure Habitat project are The Girl About Town, The Sandcastle Architect and The Astronauts.

The Girl About Town is a striking figure in dark red, striding purposefully away from the doorway of a club where she has had a great night out dancing and socialising with her friends. She’s ready for her next adventure.

The Sandcastle Architect and his habitat are built in tan – the perfect colour for the beach. He’s been very busy building his castle down on the shore, with the sea wall and promenade behind. A few finishing touches and it will be done!

These two intrpid astronauts are embarking on a spacewalk outside their Space Station, doing some maintenance and making sure their habitat is in full working order. They are big fans of our favourite LEGO astronaut Benny, so of course the Blue habitat had to involve space!

Lifeboat Station & Boardwalk Café – Micropolis Block #202

Friday, 8th January 2021 By Caz

In my video for Micropolis Module 200, The Jade Court Hotel, I showed a sneak peek of the completed Micropolis Bay area, which now covers a total of six full blocks. I needed to fill in a few gaps, and this module was one of those I made to finish off the second inner corner. It houses the Micropolis Bay Lifeboat Station and Boardwalk Café. The lifeboat station is well equipped with a built in lookout tower, launching ramp and access to the beach for some 4×4 offroad vehicles. The cafe is renowned for its hospitality and is a great place for a snack. I will show off the remaining watery modules in my next Micropolis video.

Surfers’ Point – Micropolis Block #135

Monday, 15th July 2019 By Caz

I’ve been meaning to expand the watery areas of my Micropolis for some time, and have recently picked up some blue plates to make a start. This first section is Surfers’ Point, an exclusive area of the coast where well to do surfers can hire an expensive but tiny beachside house for a few days, complete with a private beach. At the end, is a small cafe providing snacks to other beach users on a sunny day. A little dinghy is out on the water, making the most of the lovely weather. Expect more watery updates soon!

Advent: Day 14

Thursday, 14th December 2017 By Caz

Star Wars - Day 14
Star Wars – Day 14

There was another minifig behind the Star Wars door for Day 14. This time it’s a First Order Snowtrooper. They do look rather similar now, don’t they? Stormie will have to tell me who all his random cousins really are.

The 24-in-1 build was a great little lighthouse perched on a 4×4 baseplate, which was even big enough for it to get its own little beach!
