I have the capacity for great HOPE...

Currently in the DC universe there is a "War of Light" happening... It started with the Green Lantern Corps and has spread to every hue of the emotional spectrum (promise that I am not making this up). We all know that Green is the color of willpower and Yellow is the color of fear... but what of the other colors...

Looking at this emotional spectrum I started to think about which corps I would fit into the best... if you catch me while I am in the middle of a game of FIFA or watching an AC Milan game you might well think that I belong to the Red corps of rage, if you saw me looking at my beautiful baby boy and my wonderful wife you might say pink or violet. In the lego store it would defiantly be Orange... but I think throughout my life I have lived with the great hope that everything will always work out for the best. It is that hope that gets me through the day... so I decided for this weeks project to make a

Blue Lantern Power Battery

This was the basic reference picture that I worked off... drop a line and let me know what you think.

This took all but 4 of the blue lego that I own stands 8.5 inches tall and took almost 6 hours to build (because I had to go back after completing the sphere to rebuild the better part of it with white bricks on the inside so that I would have enough blue to finish the outside.


If anyone knows how to make a smaller sphere that does not use specialty bricks please let me know...Oh, and special thanks to phantalien over at HCrealms.com for the idea to do a lantern.


If you have an idea that you would like to see me attempt in lego drop me an email or a comment
