Heh, when I read the topic, I immediately thought you had built your Cullen House a month too early.
But I like your vignette turn on the vampire-wolf motif, too.
That one was 300 parts, so I'm not sure if it was a good idea to scale it down even more. It could have worked for Marchitecture too...
I'm glad you like my vignette
Here's my 1st entry
Twilight Sky Face-off by ABrickDreamer, on Flickr
Here's my 1st contribution to the 2025 Rogue Olympics. A face-off between a vampire and a wolf with exactly 101 parts. The theme was "Twilight".
I've recently built a microscale twilight Cullen House, which was my first idea for this prompt, so I've decided to take a different direction instead.
It was quite challenging to stay in the piece count limit, but I'm super happy with the reflection effect achieved on the water with the tiles underneath.

Here's my entry, from Batman Begins

Batman Begins Tumbler Diorama by ABrickDreamer, on… Here's my entry for the Christopher Nolan contest.
A couple of years ago I made a small vignette with a tumbler jumping off a building, so today I decided to improve the idea with a diorama of the final part of the Tumbler chase from Batman Begins. Batman is trying to save Rachel and jump through the waterfall to enter the Batcave.

Congratulations everyone and thank you to the organizers! Always one the most exciting and accessible contests of the year.
Super happy with my 4th place, after the 10th of last year. I will be back again next year for sure.
8th and last contribution for the 2024 campaign.
Another very fun Rogue Olympics this year, looking forward to all the last minute entries and of course the results.
Jenga by ABrickDreamer, on Flickr Here's my 8th and last contribution to the 2024 Rogue Olympics.
The theme was "Focus", another difficult one. Jenga games require a very high level of focus and steady hands, of course to represent it I had to go way bigger than minifigure scale.

Exactly 100 parts
7th submission done, it was a tough theme this week
Kids Room by ABrickDreamer, on Flickr Here's my 7th contribution to the 2024 Rogue Olympics.
The theme was "Chaos". Probably the hardest theme so far in the competition, I really struggled to come up with ideas. A simple build in terms of techniques and parts usage, but I think the chaos is well represented.

Love it too
thanks
I love this!
Thank you, glad you like it

Round 5 entry:
Lifting Stones by ABrickDreamer, on Flickr Here's my 5th contribution to the 2024 Rogue Olympics.
After micro and macro, I'm back at minifigure scale, with Hercules showing off his strength. The theme was "Uplift".

Just to give a different point of view to the conversation.
Honestly, I generally assign one point for myself, as I believe that my submissions could be in the top 5. It would have been different if we have to assign only one vote, as normally there are stronger submission than mine. Anyway it all comes down to personal taste, everyone likes different types of builds.
If we don't want people to vote for themselves, it's totally fine, but it should be in the rules, without the need to think if I should or should not vote.
It's good to have a theme open to interpretation, but rules are better if not open to much interpretation, in my opinion.
Great articulation of the monk in the classic 'kick' pose! The belt's end are a nice detail. Nice sidbuild too!
Thank you, glad you like it
We don't waste any time here, here's my 4th contribution for this year.
The Shaolin Monk: Shaolin Monk
For the 4th round of the Rogue Olympics I decided to go for a bigger scale, after the microscale of the previous round. The theme was "balance".
For a while I was thinking about making a new adventure for the tightrope walker from last year, but I'm glad I decided to build instead the shaolin monk practicing on a log.
