Unofficial LEGO Builder's Guide, 2nd Edition

[legolijntje]

Hi,

I was just browsing the website of NoStarchPress, when I saw this

It's the Unofficial LEGO Builder's Guide, 2nd Edition

It seems like NoStarch has bought an color printer, because this book will be in full color and the Unofficial LEGO Technic Builder's Guide will also be in full color

by Allan Bedford

November 2012, 240 pp.

ISBN: 978-1-59327-441-2

What’s the difference between a tile and a plate? Why isn’t it a good idea to stack bricks in columns to make a wall? How do you build a LEGO mosaic or build at different scales? You’ll find the answers to these and other questions in The Unofficial LEGO Builder’s Guide.

Now in full color, this brand-new edition of a well loved favorite will show you how to:

Construct models that won’t fall apart

Choose the right pieces and substitute when needed

Build to micro, jumbo, and miniland scale

Make playable board games out of LEGO pieces

Create photo mosaics and curved sculptures

Build a miniature space shuttle, a minifig-sized train station, and more

Of course, the real fun of LEGO building lies in creating your own models—from choosing the subject to clicking that final brick into place. Learn how in The Unofficial LEGO Builder’s Guide.

Includes the Brickopedia, a visual dictionary of nearly 300 of the most commonly used LEGO elements!

I have the frist edition of this book and I find it a great resource.

Does anybody know what is new in the second edition besides color?

Thanks,
