Are the pictures not showing up for you? Is anyone else seeing them? I see all four pics I posted showing up...

I'm going to put green felt onto this MDF building board to display at the fair.

Mostly I've used Instagram and FB for sharing my builds.
Ooops, I should have used a black piece at the right side.

Enter the brick-built world of Narnia!

Let the imagination (and Aslan) win!
My son's submission was a food truck pod, which Portland is well known for.
I have more pictures on Flickr if you're interested.
Took inspiration from Station in Bill & Ted - if you want a big thing, smoosh two little things together, the new lovely but short Express and the previous incarnation. I didn't plan it this way (I was trying to match the dimensions of the real thing) but she ended up pretty much the same size as Emerald Night (the carriage is slightly shorter):
Nothing really out of the ordinary in the build, just stretching the whole thing out - since the main wheels are more spaced out I put three full-size ones on the right, with the rimless ones both on the left side since they face the wall when she's shelved. The front truck (I think that's what it's called? The front wheel thing) is waaaay longer for real than in the instructions, so that's where most of the effort went, that and shaping the flat bit at the front so it dips down properly. Extending the body (boiler? I really need to read up on train terminology) was simple in build but needed a lot of hitting up the Brickset database to find out how many of those curved hull pieces I had and where I could steal them from (two red 2x4s came from, of all places, the inner frame of the droids' Tantive IV escape pod); meanwhile the Penguin had the gold discs on his Arctic Roller headlamps replaced by grey to provide the front... bumpers or whatever they're called. I did spend quite a while on the cab though, trying to squish in both the new set's flames and dials, and the old set's removable coal tray - some downsizing had to be done, but it worked out in the end:
The coal tender (?) has a bunch more coal detail, but the opening panel for accessory storage is still in there, and the whole train has the old magnet connectors. The carriage is basically the new one built to the dimensions of the old one, and using the older train windows - since lining the seats up with the windows added room between them, I brought over the table decorations from the old set too (and the sticker detailed snack card, redesigned to fit in the 2-wide space and be a bit smaller generally):
And here she is in situ, making the trip from London to Hogwarts (the Yellow Submarine's parked just out of view to the left of Buck Palace, it's kind of the 'British Stuff' area of the shelves):

I've repurposed and fully rewrapped last year's Star Wars calendar. (Graphics on the box borrowed from a freely-available Wizarding World coloring book PDF.) The builds throughout are mostly original, with inspiration drawn from official LEGO sets and other MOCs around the web.
As this is my first adventure posting in the Brickset Forums, please let me know if there's a better home for this!
Anyway the moving train, ferris wheel and reindeer were a hit in the office.
Please remember - sugar is bad for your health. Sugar kills, so beware of the gingerbread houses.
This is also my small tribute to Coen brothers' Fargo, the spooky girl minifigure and Grimm brothers:

I plan on creating custom minifigs and submitting it to Ideas soon so support would be appreciated. Would be helpful to get feedback before posting.
I'll also include its description here for you:
Since it’s the 60th anniversary of LEGO Brick, what’s a better way to celebrate than taking a look back at how it all started? Build an individual vignette for 4 different eras of LEGO’s history starting from 1937. Ole Kirk Kristiansen bought his first milling machine, and the company only made wooden toys (have you spotted the wooden duck?). In the second vignette, LEGO started molding plastic bricks in 1946. The third vignette is of a designer’s office to represent designers working on the amazing LEGO sets that we all are familiar with. Finally, in the fourth vignette, you can see a modern molding machine with a complicated tubing system in the background. That’s where the raw materials “travel” to the big molding machines that make LEGO bricks. Display all the vignettes together, or put them in different places, to share the story of LEGO!
I won't insert a link to the "product page" here, since it's a MOC showcase topic, but I'm sure if someone would like to pre-order it, he/she will find the proper web page for that. :)

By the way @KovJonas, your entry for the recent Bricklink contest looks really excellent.
Thanks very much.
Many thanks for supporting my projects. I really appreciate it.
Either way, I'll post 1-3 moc weekly (if willing to) with mainly old moc I've built in the past:
Post 1:
Aku - The Shape-Shifting Master of Darkness
Whatever happened to that, Cap? Did you finish it?
Post 2:
Serpent Tide (7018 Viking Ship challenges the Midgard Serpent revision)
Umoi Crab
I had my Bag-End extension MOC displayed as well as a microscale Forestmen Camouflaged Outpost and my son had his microscale floating city displayed.
So much fun!
