Alex's Lego Creations

[AlexCraig]

This started earlier this year. I decided to make old school game sprites and make them out of Legos. Sadly, after the first few things I made, I ran out of Legos in those particular colors and was unable to make more. Thankfully, for Christmas, I got a lot more, and have been productive. I don't have enough of certain colors, but it more than I have had. And I have made a habit of making the sprite, taking a picture, then taking the sprite apart, so as to save on Legos.

Here are the first things I made:

Spoiler!

Lego Jesus. Idaknow, was just bored and realized I had the pieces to make it.




Then I decided to make my favorite video game character.


After I made Link, I used all the red I had at the time to make a Goomba

Here is what I have made since Christmas (WARNING: Lots of pics! And sorry about the flash.):

Spoiler!

Mario (Super Mario Bros.)


Luigi (Super Mario Bros.)


1-Up Mushroom (Super Mario World)


Shy Guy (Super Mario Bros. 2)


Octorok (The Legend of Zelda)


Armos (The Legend of Zelda)


Tektite (The Legend of Zelda)


Bubble (The Legend of Zelda)


1 Rupee (The Legend of Zelda)


5 Rupee (The Legend of Zelda)


6 Rupees total


Bomberman (Bomberman series)


Master Chief (Halo series)

As of 1-07-11:

Spoiler!

Samus Aran's Helmet (Metroid) - This one, I didn't have enough depth of color to make it match exactly, but I got it to look pretty damn close.


Simon Belmont (Castlevania) - I ran out of 1x1 and 1x2 red blocks JUST before I got to his face, so I used orange to replace it.


Excitebike (Excitebike) - You have NOOOOOO idea how hard this one was to build. It was so structurally unsound, that I had to use Brown as a sort of background/support.

Since my birthday was this past week, we got me a present: a Lego Star Wars set. I got Home One set (middle of the below pic). Figured I'd take a pic of all my lego sets I have made.

Spoiler!

L>R:
Goomba (Super Mario Bros), Little Green Army Men and Jeep (Toy Story, in front of Goomba), Y-Wing Starfighter (Star Wars), Link (The Legend of Zelda), Basic legos, Home One Mon Calamari Star Cruiser (Star Wars), Snow Speeder (Star Wars), Motorized AT-AT Imperial Walker (Star Wars, no longer being made)

I hope to get more basic legos soon, once I get a job and money. Then I can make more creations. Hopefully more SNES ones, if I can get various colors.

What a cool way to use Legos. Your sprites are enjoyable and nostalgic to look at. I look forward to seeing more in the future.
