With only a couple of pieces left to come, hopefully midweek next week, this ...

With a 4 day weekend, this sucker (at least the picture part) is getting finished... Cracking on with it this afternoon. New kitchen sink tap was fitted this morning, putting a poster frame up for the lad in a few mins, then its lego time for the rest of the day. Will it be done today? Maybe. In oth...

Starquake
Wizards Lair
Firelord

Factory Breakout i enjoyed a lot too.

Although i didn't get far in it, i loved Mindfighter. Had a big box copy of that with the book for many years. Don't recall what happened to it, probably sold it on ebay. Wish i still had it.

Not much has happened in the last couple of weeks. Another commitment has taken all my spare time (MegaAGS (AmigaVision) demo screenshots for the next release). However thats almost done and i'll be back onto this in 2-3 more days. In the meantime i have just placed an order for all the parts to mak...

Starquake, Wizards Lair and Firelord. His list may be short, but these are 3 of the finest games to ever grace the Speccy.
Starquake is insanely good.

Scuba Dive
Turbo Esprit
Harrier Attack

Space Harrier
Ghosts n Goblins
Commando

Sim City
The Light Corridor
Welltris

Finders Keepers got way more play time (completed it many times) from me.
Spellbound, Knight Time, Stormbringer, these just didn't have the same fun for me. Getting stuck quite easy, dying quite easy.
So no proportionals, just Finders Keepers all the way.

Its TV and tea time, so heres where i'm up to.
55 of 77 done, 5 of 7 rows. 22 plates to go.

Brick seperator at bottom there if you squint or zoom in for scale

Me too, don't be a stranger, let u sknow whan you release stuff... I like the art style and chunky sprites you use.

All of these passed me by.

I will keep posting update pics. Last weekend was very lazy on the Lego, was doing other "stuff", and through the week i managed 4 plates. I'm at 45 of 77 done. Tomorrow will see more progress and i'll post an update picture then. My last batch of 300 brown bricks is now in the UK so shoul...

Had a bit of spare time at the weekend so this happened. Most of the Lego I used is probably older than the Spectrum - I stopped getting anything other than the Technical sets after I was about 11 which would have been around when I got my Spectrum. https://i.postimg.cc/ykhxMfLg/IMG-0234.jpg Very c...

Saturdays work... 39 of 77 done.
Brick separator for scale.

End of day 1. 22 plates done out of 77.
Speccy mug shown for scale.
I have sore thumbs.

Go big or go home...

5 plates done. 72 to go.

I looked into how to hang this, conscious of size, bendability, sagging etc, so looked into how Lego does it for their world map and other pixel pics. They supply a special hanging brick that locks in to the backplates (those same backplates i have bought), so i have ordered 8 of them. 6 for my mons...

Again, arrived sooner than expected... Looks like i can start this weekend then, not next
