Fana'Briques 2014 Fana'Briques 2014 Fana'Briques 2014

Second day on Fana'Briques 2014 with always so many people, and a very nice meeting with a young MOCeur member of the Fanabriques association who presents a really interesting Star Wars diorama.

Pierre "MiniBricks", 14 years old, works at the micro scale and reproduces many ships and machines with a real work of research and documentation. He also presents ships straight out of his imagination, which if they do not exist in the inventory of the saga, however, fit perfectly into the context. I present here some views of his diorama, but you can find all of his creations in his flickr gallery freshly uploaded.

Seen on the BricTechnic / TechLUG stand, this X-Wing Technic presented for the first time during the exhibition by Cypr-21 which changes us a bit from the usual construction machinery and other cranes. It's Star Wars, so I take this opportunity to put some pictures for you here. Another proof that Star Wars and Technic have things to say to each other.
