Dneul Posted December 4, 2013 Share Posted December 4, 2013 Just finished my latest moc. I plan to decorate it with series 12 minifigs when they get released. 9 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MartinP Posted December 4, 2013 Share Posted December 4, 2013 Awesome MOC. I wish I had the time and pieces to do something like that. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
comicblast Posted December 4, 2013 Share Posted December 4, 2013 That is sick! Great job! Do you have an estimate on the number of pieces used? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dneul Posted December 4, 2013 Author Share Posted December 4, 2013 A living room table worth of bricks was used. There are 16 brick levels and roughly 85 pieces for each level. Plus the plates and tile pieces for the letters for so I would make a rough guess of around 2500 pieces Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

After looking at the picture again, it does not seem so hard to make something like that. Maybe I can do that in the future if I have the time. I know I have enough piece, I just do not know if they are the right ones for this type of build. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You have to know whether or not you have the right pieces too. Anyways, I think the hardest part of building that is 1. The supports, and 2. The texture of the word LEGO. I see you included quite a bit of texture with different pieces to get the right touch, and I think the OP did a fantastic job. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I hesitated to post about it but do indeed like how it turned out. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest eightbrick Posted December 5, 2013 Share Posted December 5, 2013 Wow, Lego should hire you to sell that as a promotion! Very cool, thanks for sharing! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheOrcKing Posted December 5, 2013 Share Posted December 5, 2013 Rather spot on, and looks like you use some of the same storage drawers I do. Now you only need to achieve the 'floating' effect from the poster. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Now you only need to achieve the 'floating' effect from the poster. I have though about that. I can turn in on its corner and then make clear inverted triangular pieces from 1x2 clear bricks This is what it looks like with it propped up on its corner.

Noodlenut Posted December 5, 2013 Share Posted December 5, 2013 That is amazing! How long did it take you to plan it out? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dneul Posted December 5, 2013 Author Share Posted December 5, 2013 That is amazing! How long did it take you to plan it out? I have been building this in my head for weeks. Actually physically planning it out was by the seat of my pants. Counted the studs in the offical picture of the lego movie and then just laid pieces out and built. Snotting the movie letters was challenging. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MartinP Posted December 5, 2013 Share Posted December 5, 2013 Isn't having enough pieces part of having the right pieces? Not for me. I have way too many pieces to keep track of. I am always finding rare pieces that only belong in one set, but them I find out that I need one more of that piece to complete the set.

I'm just going to follow you around today and 'LIKE' every single one of your posts. (EDIT: NVM, got you and Quacs confused... *walks away quietly*) And my brain hurts looking at the picture of the logo, I can't tell how big the pieces are. It's something about the studs on the white versus the size of the pieces in red. o_O Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
