Brick Days 2025 - Omaha

 

  

Brick Days was another great time.  We thoroughly enjoyed it.  Here is a picture montage of the four days.


I thought this was quite interesting.  Using a net to capture the pieces and then make a quilt like structure.

This was the overall winner of the show.



This matrix vehicle was quite good.


Someone else who did a remake of the galaxy explorer.  You can see the original just in front of it. This similar to the idea that I had, except mine needed to fit on a landing pad base plate.




I am still attracted to this idea of micro architecture.  Just have not found a way to include it in the display.





Ship in a bottle?




This is taking the mosaic to whole new level.  The 3-D style is very good.  This particular one is a excellent combination of the mosaic and the new botanical line of Lego.


OK these two pictures might be pushing it a little.  But I had to laugh.

Me giving a presentation on Lighting Your Lego.


I thought this display should have won the Lights contest.  Very innovative display of both Duplo and Lego bricks that will fluoresce.  

This how we started out from Western Nevada on April Fools Day.  The week before it had been in the 70's. We finally caught up with the storm in Wyoming, where we had to take 2 hour detour because Interstate 80 west of Laramie was closed.  But we were able to see Casper WY, Chimney Rock and Scott's Bluff.
