Over the past 2 months I have been working on 3 custom Lego WWII vehicles.
the first one is my Lego M8 greyhound is took me just over three days to build because if your a Lego builder then you would know that 7 wide Lego vehicles are hard to make and then on top of that it used a lot of small pieces but when it was done I felt I had accomplished something big.
(picture coming soon)
The next is my Lego Wespe (wasp in German), this also took me three days to build, this one was 8 stud wide it was easier because It was very straightforward and I had made a prototype version a month earlier so I knew the basics of making a SPG (self propelled gun) it can fit 3 people at the most. I really how it came out and I now use it for my MOC (My Own Creation).
(picture coming soon)
the last one is a FLAK 88mm and from what i can tell its the right size for a Lego figure it can rotate 360 degrees and can go at a angle of 75 degrees, it is my only artillery piece made out of Lego. otherwise it has no other features
(picture coming soon)
The next thing will probably be building is a Tiger 1, this will be my second time building a Tiger 1. The other thing will probably a T 34 (Russian medium tank) to combat my Tiger 1.
Last week we went sailing at Awatea lagoon.We were supposed to leave at 9am but my dad was late so we didn’t get there till 9.45am but they were not in the water so that was a relief.
When we got in the water we had to go side ways but the wind caught us and we went right into the bank so my dad had to tell me how to get of it. This was annoying but when we got away we were off. We were on the fifth boat and the rest of the boats were already 20 metres away so we had to catch up with them. It was 20 minutes later we caught the rest and we kept trying to get Dean (the instructor) to make waves. Then Josh and I would lean back and the front of the boat would come out of the water but sometimes we’d take on a lot of water and the basically the rest of the first half was just practicing.
After lunch we got back in the water and played some red vs white games like net ball which was after you got the ball you had five second to throw the ball to your team, when the seconds were up it was a hand over. The other games were sponge tag, its like ball tag but you used a sponge the other thing is a water fight of course but to get the water guns we had to sail across the lagoon and that took like ten minutes because there was no wind at the time. We were about third there, sadly we were only allowed 1 per boat and while we were sailing over our instructor Dean was getting us with a water gun that he was using.
After a fun filled day it sadly had to end but before that we had to fill out a form of how much we liked it and I ticked I loved it when we got back to school I dropped my IPod touch and cracked the screen but that’s another story day.
Hi, my name is Nathan, I got my blog in 2010 and now I am 12.
My interest are, Computer games like Portal 2, Minecraft and World of Tanks. I like to build vehicles and MOCs (my own creation) in Lego, I have a iPod touch Gen4 its an 8g though and I am planing to buy a Iphone 4S 32g, the games I have on my iPod are ,Tank Fury,Minecraft pocket edition, ZEDs alchemy and Unblock me, I have only 1 app and it is the Yogscast sound box.
I also enjoy saving up money and buying brickarms (a custom Lego weapons company) and Brickmania (A company that builds custom Lego military kits) I have 1 kit, the Nebelwerfer 41 and I have 354 brickarms weapons and accessories. I play touch Rugby for our school but we have only won 1 game but hopefully we cane win more this summer.
At school during play time me and my friends talk and sometimes I bring in my small rugby ball and play kicks or American football or play on the playground.
Question time!
: What are your interests?
: Do you play any sports?
: Do you have anything Apple like iPods, iPads or Macs?
: When did you get your Blog?
Last one : Do you have a Minecraft account and or a Steam account?
Well after months of saving I finally got my iPod touch.
Its an 8gb, its black because white was sold out and further I got a black cover for it.
I have at this moment 13 apps and all are games, 222 songs and times from all over the globe.
So my dad and I went to the NZ vs Canada game in Wellington on the 2 of October it was fun, we did miss the national anthems but we were in time to see the haka and it was good we saw the game right.
About five minutes in, there was Canadian line out and it was huge I mean it went past the centre of the field. The score was 37-8 at half time I was pretty happy at that point with the score but when canada scored another try I thought thats not good for NZ because we’re the best team in the world.
At full time the score was 79-15 to NZ . then About 10 minutes later we went down to the seats and waited for the players to come round to us and sign my top I was wearing and surely enough I got four and they were from Cory Jane my favourite player, Ma’a Nonu,Mills Muliaina on his 99th test match and Victor Vito.after that we went home and I had a big grin on my face.

At the end of all of this it should look a like something like this (see top).At the end of this I feel I really accomplished something and I think the next time I do one it will look much better.
This is the Tongan national anthem. sadly I can’t translate it and thatis what MRS G wants us to do but i might be able to translate some of it, Bye for now.
Try and watch this with laughing, giggling or grining. I came across this when watching The Duck Song and clicked on this because it had alot of views . the thing I love this so much is that it goes on for a total of 3.37 seconds of this pink body cat just saying NYAN ! its so annoying but not nearly as annoying as the Annoying orange.
Today was the school Cross Country. I came 8th out of the YR 7 & 8 which is pretty good because last year I came 6th out of only the YR 6′s. I came behind , Dino , Joseph , Angus , Daniel H , Ambros , Sonia and Jacob which i’m pretty happy about that . I was so tired at the end because went round the field 4 ( about 285 m or 935.47 ft each time) and 1 quarter of the block and throw 4 times which is also quite allot of running .
Well after months of saving I finally got my iPod touch.
