I redrew this in 2025!
My display I had at Brickworld Indy 2026
As always, it was a great turn out, and a terrific experience! A few highlights that I can currently recall. A child saw my battle scene and said, “I love this!” The mother replied with a perplexed tone, “you do?” The child responded with an astounding “yes!"🤣
I feel I may have scarred a few attendees, both parents and kids. I signed a few autographs and caught up with my regulars I see at Indy. Another thing I can recall on Saturday was a mother and her 2 kids stared at my display and their eyes glazed over with bewliderment. After 10 minutes or so of utter disbelief they walked away and about 20 minutes later they came back. The mother exclaimed, “Every other display we kept going to the boys kept saying I want to go back to the squ1ddos display, over and over.” I felt quite special after hearing that, so I gave them 2 tokens I created for the displays I liked. Their eyes lit up sooo wide and she greatly appreciated the gesture. As I can recall more I will comment.
Today brings us Laela, the very stabby princess who teams up with Orn in The Backwards Knight.
Bound in service to The Paladin as his mage hunter, she finds an unlikely ally on her hunt for the latest mage causing chaos and destruction across the lands around Haven.
Come read all about her in The Backwards Knight!

My display at Brick Bash, over the weekend
I met a lot of fellow displayers and they were amazed of what I brought to display. Most of the people that checked out my builds were confused, blown away and a few said they’re true art. For those attendees that read the lengthy stories, they really enjoyed how they elevated the builds. A few even said I should write an actual story about the Veinhart… The reactions from most of the kids were astonishment, scared, or mesmerized by my creations. I even had a few adults and kids keep coming back to just stare in bewilderment at my madness. It was a great weekend and even met a fellow imgurian. He said it was an honor to meet me and that my builds were surreal. I shook his hand and gave him a sticker. He was tickled pink from our brief interaction.
Our MichLUG collab with the cyber cubes was a big hit as well. I am glad we’re enticing more people to create these fun cubes. I felt that adding my 4559 train helped the layout come to life a bit more. All in all, it was a great time for everyone!

Starting another round of "Meet the Characters"!
Today brings us Orn, the not-so-shiny knight that's probably entirely too snarky for his own good. Still, he's out here doing what he can to help.
Come read all about him in The Backwards Knight!
The Colorful Wasteland is ready for BrickBash!
This build, along with this one will be at BrickBash Ann Arbor, this weekend! Both items are already packed and all I have left are the final touches on my cyberpunk city.
