Old Money

We’re feeling so fancy today. This is a Bentley Mulsanne / Turbo R, and as we type this from TLCB Executive Washroom & Sauna, luxuriating in our blogging riches, we can think of few places we’d rather be. And that applies to both the Bentley and the Executive Washroom & Sauna.

Constructed by MP LEGO Technic Creations, this exquisite creation recreates the late-‘80s Bentley in quite fantastic detail. There’s working suspension, steering, opening doors and trunk, and a complete drivetrain, but the true magic is the interior – yes that really is a winged Bentley logo mosaic in the headlining.

‘Wood’ trim, cream everything, and even an LED light in the opening glovebox perfectly encapsulate late-‘80s British luxury. And that’s the best kind there is.

There are more images to peruse at your leisure via MP’s photostream, and we’ll join you there shortly once our butler returns with the towels.

Cyberpunk 2077

The news about Cyberpunk 2077 seems to suggest that it is incredible to behold, but underneath the visual splendour it’s actually unusable rubbish. Kinda like a Lamborghini Countach. Or an Instagram influencer.

However, it does look spectacular, helped by the brilliant artists behind its ‘Night City’ setting. A megacity in a free state, independent from government control and inhabited by Keanu Reeves for some reason, Night City also includes this; the Quadra Turbo-R V-Tech.

Whilst it sounds like a kid’s laptop, it is visually awesome, managing to look both like a 1980s supercar and a concept from the near future.

This stunning recreation of the V-Tech Speak’n’Spell superbly captures the Cyberpunk 2077 aesthetic, and it comes from Hasan Kabalak who has deployed some brilliant building techniques to create it.

Custom decals add to the impact and there’s more of Hasan’s creation to see at his Flickr album, which includes outdoor shots, build steps, and close-ups of some of the outstanding details to be found within it.
