Nativity silhouette

David Alexander Smith built the Nativity scene out of LEGO, but in a different way than you might imagine. He used black pieces to create a "silhouette" in which it's hard to make out individual elements, but the model as a whole looks stunningly simple in its composition. Nice work.

UPDATE- MCLegoboy also made a nativity scene in a similar (but not silhouetted) style; you can view it here. 

Motorized turkey wishes you a happy Thanksgiving

This Mindstorms NXT-controlled turkey, built by MySnailEatsPizza, can "skate, avoid obstacles, gobble, flap its wings, and move its head." I want one.

Happy Thanksgiving from Brickology!

...but I think September might be pushing it. Regardless, this Santa head ornament by Miro Dudas (Miro78) is a nice little build incorporating some awesome building techniques:
