Sometimes being a chief has its challenges.  Peter (afollygood) took time to relax and enjoy his hobby and build some beautiful gothic style buildings.  He wanted to travel back in time and enjoy the medieval times of building and construction houses the look right out a story book.  His dedication to just doing what he loves combines with his diverse styles of building. "You can make one burger but the next burger might just be a little bit different, same with a LEGO build."

A lot of us around the world have a passion for our countries.  As an American, I know that there are a lot of people that do!  Luca Petraglia (lucapetraglia.it) is the same.  He is very passionate about Italy and specifically their architecture.  As an Italian living in Milan, he knows what a great and expansive history Italy has. That history seeps into and out of the builds all across his country.  They give so much emotion to people, including Luca, that he wanted to show how his other passion, LEGO, could be included in this.  His builds are larger than life and something that will impress any architecture, AFOL, and Italian.  Listen to how he creates his impressive large-scale work!

Gotta say goodbye to another LEGO experiemental theme.  But, what was LEGO even trying to do with it?  LEGO Star Wars Skywalker Saga and TT Games are getting some flack for their work on the game, or should I say, their overwork on the game.  New Art is coming and minifigures for the month of February!  The news each week always surprises me as it is ever changing!  I hope you continue to enjoy learning about all the LEGO News with your weekly Bricking News!

Animals are great, not only in real life but who doesn't love the creatures from TV shows and movies!?  Some of the most creative ones come out the Star Wars universe.  Shaun (brick.sheepa) thought the same thing!  With his love of LEGO and Star Wars creatures he was able to create some cute (even scary cute) creatures in LEGO form.  Taking from his love of the micro fighters series he creates them at a scale and easily built style so we can all have a cute little Tonton!

LEGO bricks, they are primarily a square or a rectangle.  That usually means they make larger squares OR rectangles.  So seeing something that's curved with LEGO isn't usually normal, unless you have the curved bricks to do it.  But what if there was a builder that took ridged LEGO bricks and curved them!?  Jeff Sanders (brickbending) does just that! He can bend bricks in shaped you can't even imagine!  True Matrix magic at work.  Learn how he came to understand how bricks can bend and create intertwined brick designs that you can do at home! 
"Do not try and bend the brick —that's impossible. Instead, only try to realize the truth."
“What truth?”
 “There is no brick.”

Jan took on the challenge of not only making LEGO artwork but making it a series of designs worked together in a larger idea overall.  His designs stem from his love of all things from Star Wars, cars, and of course space.  He has applied that love into a LEGO Ideas submission that makes you think out of this world.  Take a listen to his journey with LEGO!
