1:1 L.M.S. Explorer model (+download links) - The Return of the Thread as a Blog

Since the 1:1 L.M.S Explorer thread was one of the most visited threads on RRU I thought that I should revive the thread in blog form (since almost all threads are closed now). Maybe not many people will see this blog, but you know what? I will still post this blog entry in case someone only uses this forum instead of a chat program like Discord (which still doesn't have a good overview compared to a forum). Also keep in mind that the edit-button doesn't seem to exist in the blog section. That

6 Years later... wow this site still exists!

Hello people who probably don't know who i am, I'm Someswedish (although i usually go by Mr.TheSweDragon now days) and i was a somewhat active user around this forum like 6 years ago or so? though i did mostly just lurk and stuff, i sometimes did create some dorky drawings and videos for the forums and generally have a good time back in the day. But at some point years ago, I kind of just dropped out with no word. I felt guilty about it but it was something i needed to do since i couldn't s

Arthuriel's Amazing Art (Un)Adventures!

You may know me via the recreation of the L.M.S. Explorer in different scales (including 1:1) or the Insane Raiders comics, which are insane, but believe me: the Rock Raiders in the game LEGO Rock Raiders try to challenge Homer Simpson for title of being the dumbest fictional person. So what am I doing creativewise at the moment? Will the Insane Raiders come back? Will they crawl out of the grave or the chimney during some Halloween or Christmas special (or both.

The mistakes of "Art Battle" and "RRU Tower"

For the past few weeks (well, it WAS  a few weeks when I initially wrote this. I've come back to it a year or two later to fix it up and publish it), I've been thinking about Art Battle and RRU Tower, specifically thinking about why those threads fell apart/flopped. I know both AB and RT are dead, and most members involved in either threads are barely active on this forum, but still I'd like to provide my thoughts about why both of them might've failed and what would need to be changed/fixe

Nick Nuwe - Adventurous Vacation

Today I present to you some Pokémon route music! Pokémon Sapphire was one of the first games I've ever played, and its soundtrack blows me away everytime I listen to it. After listening to it for the first time in over 10 years(!) I figured it wouldn't be such a bad idea to start including some of the Pokémon soundtracks' features into my own stuff.   Enjoy folks!

The Ballad of the LMS Explorer

A bit of context: I wrote this terribly silly thing a few years ago on request from a player in a BIONICLE Mafia game I was hosting (as one does). Anyhow, I've always felt remiss that I never got round to posting it on this site, so here goes. Enjoy!   Here, for the curious, is the scene in which it originally appeared: Kudos to Ghidora for requesting this in the first place.

Nick Nuwe - Square One

Happy holidays guys! I managed to push out a new song complete with lyrics and my beautifully manipulated in just a few days in time for Christmas.   While it is pretty pop-y, I never tackled this genre and I felt I should fix that. To counterbalance that I tried to fit in some nasty chords and melodies and I edited the whoop out of my voice to turn it into what you hear in the final product. Enjoy!

Just Imagine - A Lego RTS - II

Just Imagine.... A Lego RTS...   But not just simply themes bashing it out for your enjoyment. Many themes were released with absolutely no aquatic component. Many themes were solely aquatic. So why not bring two factions to bear, one fighting for control of the land and skies, the other sending aquatic incursions? Submarines, boats; anything to skim the waves and provide devastating firepower to bear on your opponents on the shore having wrestled the sea from your opponent's control.

Nick Nuwe - Fallen Royalty

Hello. I present to you my (not really) new track I composed.   It's inspired by Breath of The Wild, and it tries to mimic the style of the music that plays where the Sheikah are involved, namely shrines, Divine Beasts and guardian encounters. The twist here is that this mellow and somber Sheikah atmosphere, filled with orchestra (real violins included) and unique sound design surrounds a stupidly heavy EDM drop.   Enjoy.   https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gWqr1g0TM8

Is This Thing On?

Greetings, and welcome to the inaugural entry in what is certain to be an edifying and scintillating program. I suppose you're wondering why I've called you all here tonight. The reason, good sirs and madams, is birds. A most vital and compelling matter, as you can no doubt see.     Neither of these things is a bird, and yet they're nearer birds than any non-avians alive today. Whatever one might say about archosaurs (and there's a lot to say) they were no slouches. Not conte

Nick Nuwe - Wayward Witchcraft

Oh man it's that time of year again. That is, time for spooky anime metal! That's right. I decided to stray away from my tradition of making regular spooky stuff, and went for just a halloween appropriate track instead. I think it ended up being the best decision I could make, since I was getting bored the hell out of my skull with the spookiness shtick.   Don't you just love the triple alliteration in the name? I couldn't make a Halloween track without a cheesy name, even if the track

Nick Nuwe - Sunflower Fields

What now? An old school rock track featuring my beautiful 99% artificial voice? Yup you heard right.   I'm not a songwriter so the lyrics might sound pretty cheesy, but they still do have a meaning. It's all about the depiction of a weird feeling evoked by certain sceneries and situations, and something else. I won't say because I think it's best to leave the analysis to the listener.

Nick Nuwe - Hot Mess

And I'm back with more music! It took more time than expected to get the video done, but it's all good now. It's here.   This is some pretty complicated music. If you don't like it at first glance, give it another go. Irregular time signatures aren't as intuitive as 4/4 and the like.

Nick Nuwe - Sands of Time

And it's time for another track! This one is pretty serious/melancholy compared to my usual stuff, but I figured it would be cool to try something different. I don't have much else to say cause I don't know how to describe this. Welp.

Nick Nuwe - Irradiate

Hello, I'm still alive and lurking. This is the first video I had the chance to upload in a while, since I've been studying like crazy for the past few months. But now I finally have some time to get back to making music and uploading videos!   This is a pretty simple EDM track inspired by the cyberpunk aesthetic, hope you'll enjoy.

What I Love

I love LEGO. I think my username makes it quite clear I'm a LEGO fan. What I love most about it is the classic minifigures and decals/stickers used on sets. I would have liked to have collected a few more Adventurers sets from my time but I only had so much money then that I couldn't afford to. For me I think that TLG should do a minifigure series of classic minifigures who have only appeared in Video Games, like with LR2 characters like Frankie Solido and Baron Rosso, to LI2 characters like a B

What I like doing

I love making games in Unity. Especially LEGO based games. I'm currently in the middle of a Racers Project but have also started modding the TTGames LEGO games like LEGO Harry Potter: Years 1-4 and making custom game icons for both classic and modern LEGO games. I do try making my own custom decals for games like Racers 2 and LDD.

First blog

I like modding LEGO video games, Both classic and modern. I've made custom textures for Racers 2, and found out a lot of detail into the former LEGOLAND Windsor Resort attraction Rocket Racers/Racers LBE. I mainly as my name describes mod LEGO Digital Designer, adding in custom textures and making MOC's of LEGOLAND attractions. I also do a bit of game creation using Unity, and video editing with both Adobe Premiere and SONY Vegas Pro 14.
