Welcome to my website! It is dedicated primarily to LEGO stop motion films
(known as Brickfilms) and models, and there is also an art gallery with
pictures I have taken or created. Also on the navbar is a Forum link, which
won't take you anywhere yet, but hopefully soon I'll get that finished.
Note: this site is meant to be viewed on a monitor with a 1024x768
resolution or higher.

It's been a while |
Yeah, I haven't updated in a LONG
time. All that's new, really, is the design. I've
done a complete rebuild of the underlying code, so
everything's a lot cleaner than it used to be.
Please note that there are some pretty weird bugs
with the site in Internet Explorer, so it's
definitely recommended that you use Firefox. I'll
work on fixing them if I have time.

Well, I've reverted the site to its normal design scheme. I've also
added a number of new images in the Real Photographs gallery.
-Nick
As you may have noticed, I'm trying a little experiment. I've changed
the topbar to reflect Christmas more, as I've seen a number of other sites
do consistently for a few years. I'm not sure how well it looks here, but I
thought I'd give it a try for a week or so. In other news, I've released my
SW Trailer on the SDS Site. Be sure to check it out!
-Nick
This isn't much of an update at all, really. All I've managed to do in
the last month is make some minor CSS style changes. Links now aren't
underlined (though they're still a different color), and images that are
links brighten up when rolled over. Unfortunately, however, I don't believe
this last change works in Internet Explorer, but I never liked IE anyway.
You're all using Firefox, right? Right? But, anyway, I hope to make a real
update soon.

Just... Another Update |
Yeah, nothing radical this time. I haven't changed the look, and still
have no plans on doing it soon. I am learning Flash, though, so if I get
good enough I might just take the topbar and sidebars and turn them into
Flash files, so I can do more dynamic effects. Anyway, I've added a new
model to the LEGO page, a
futuristic car.
I've also added two new pictures to the
CG
Images art gallery, both of which are much better than anything there
previously. Well, that's about it, I guess, unless I'm forgetting something.

I Hope This Is It |
So, you may have noticed, I changed everything again. Well, I'm
pretty sure this is it. I simply hated the old look of the site, thought it
was inconsistent, so I decided to start from scratch. The new design is very
smooth and professional looking, with custom rollover buttons (I had them
before, but they were presets), and, you may notice, the page is centered in
your screen! Before it was stuck on the left side, making the design look
awkward with two sidebars. I've also integrated the SDS Studios site and
this one better. Now, in the corner, there's a big round button that will
take you to the SDS site, and on the SDS site is a button that will take you
here. Nifty, eh? As far as other stuff goes, there's now a forum link in the
navbar, but it won't take you anywhere just yet. More importantly, though,
I've added my latest MOC to the LEGO page, and reorganized that section to
be more efficient.

Nothing Since April!? |
As you may have noticed, there haven't been any updates here since April,
though there have been frequent ones on the SDS Studios part of the site.
There are a number of things I could do, but I'm quite busy now making a
film and a new comic, so they'll have to wait. I expect I'll add a new model
soon, though.

Black Spider-man |
This isn't a huge update, but I did make one really cool addition to the
Characters and Custom Minifigures page: A black
Spider-man. After finding out that LEGO wasn't going to be making sets for
Spider-man 3, I knew I had to make a black Spider-man, and so I did! Once I
actually see the movie, I might be making more custom minifigures, such as
Venom, perhaps. In the way of other new things, there are a bunch more
photos in the
Real Photographs section of the art gallery, and a new one in the
Composites section.
-Nick
Yeah... I changed the look yet again. Expect me to change it
again soon because I'm not entirely happy with this look. Anyway, what was
once the 'Reference Pictures' page is now the Art Gallery, which has four
sections: CG Images, Real Photographs, SDS Gallery, and Fantasy. There are
also two new really cool models on the LEGO page, a fighter and a rocket
(the fighter I built six months ago and forgot to take pictures of, and the
rocket I built just yesterday). There are also descriptions of the links on
the Links page, which you may find useful.

No update... Can you believe it? |
No update yet... I know I really do need to update this part of the
site. However, there is a HUGE update on my film site (click
the SDS Studios link in the navbar). And I need to go and change the
copyright notice on every page to say '2005-2007.' That's going to
be a big job. So... until next time!
-Nick
Now, on the LEGOŽ page, there are two new links, which will take
you to my
Characters and Custom
Minifigures page and my
Furniture page. Most of the characters are from my
Brickfilms, and the only custom minifigure is TC-14, but, as
with everything else on my site, I will add to it as time goes
on. The furniture page has LEGOŽ furniture I've built. I've also
added a new section to the
Art Gallery page, one where I will put real pictures
I've taken at various different times. The Shop section,
predictably, still isn't hear yet. And of course, there is a new
top bar. The reason I changed it this time is because my site
didn't have enough bright colors before. Everything was very
dark (the old top bar was black and dark blue), which isn't
exactly what I wanted. So I guess that's all for now...
-Nick
When it says "not an update" it means that this isn't a real
update. I'm still working on the real update, so you'll have to
wait a little while. I know it's been so long... but... well...
there's this thing... this terrible thing...
SCHOOL!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
So... uh... yeah. You get the idea. There is, however, an update
on the SDS Studios part of my site.

A bit of a redesign |
Yes, I've changed a few things... the navbar, mostly. I got rid
of the Short Stories and Artwork pages because I simply don't
have the time to update them. There is also a new button on the
bottom that will take you to SDS Studios, my LEGOŽ film site, as
I am now a lot more in to this than I was before. Also, there's
a new model on the LEGOŽ page... a spider I made, and I've
completely redesigned the About Me page. And lastly, I thought
I'd mention that this site is now over a year old. I started it
on the 4th of June last year.

An update... finally! |
I wish I had been able to update sooner, but things just haven't
worked out. The main reason why this update took me so long is
because I was switching my site over to a different hosting
service. The old one raised their prices, so I decided to switch
to a better one. Anyway, you will now notice a new navbar, with
rollover hyperlink effects, something I've been trying to figure
out for a long time now. You will also notice a new opening page
for the site. Next, there is a new link on the navbar:
"Reference pictures." This will take you to a page with
reference pictures I have created. Then, in the LEGOŽ section,
there are four new models.

Another update... |
Okay, I am so sorry that I haven't updated
in two months... I haven't had the chance. First, check out the
top bar. I was getting sick of that huge double-sided arrow in
it, so now we have a star. Also, you'll notice that the site's
color scheme now has a lot more blue than before. Lastly, there
is now a preview in the My Books page...I think you will find it
very interesting.
