    Assembling Bricksburg

    edited to put all final images in the first post... After seeing the LEGO movie, I wanted to re-create buildings from Emmet's neighborhood. While researching, I realized a great deal of what was in the movie was based on previously-existing sets. I thought it would be interesting to do a project that compared the original LEGO sets to the modified movie versions. Knowing how much time, money, and physical space it would take to build these out of real bricks, I decided to try my hand at LEGO Digital Designer (LDD). After having created a couple of the buildings in LDD, I ran across the post for Bluerender and used it to generate photo-real renderings. Here are my results: .lxf file: http://www.brickshel...logo_final_.lxf The latest image posts: "I wanna go home!"

  2. Here are recreations from the town of Flatbush Gulch in The LEGO Movie.

    Bad Batch helmet--Tech

    Came up with an idea to build a Tech helmet with the engine piece and the Minion "goggle" piece. Here's the result.

    I enjoy following this topic. The variety of all the designs is very inspiring!

    Hi @Ninjago_fan2123. Feel free to post any LEGO Movie (1 or 2) related builds here!

    Hi @TMBuilder709, thanks for stopping by! As I've posted on this topic previously, I'm hesitant to release models because I don't want to see them get abused, such as showing up on off brand sites as an actual set. I've seen it happen multiple times. I'm sorry that a few people ruin things for the rest of us. I have posted full 360 images of the service station on the first page of this topic. I hope they provide enough reference for you to build it. If you have questions about any specific part of the model, feel free to ask and i'll be happy to respond. I don't visit here as often as I used to, so I'll have to ask for some patience in getting a reply.

    It's great to see people are still visiting here and sharing! I feel like I should dust off some old, incomplete models and finish them off. Time will tell. Hi @LordB, welcome to Eurobricks! I'll send you some references that should help you out. Feel free to share here, if you want.
  10. I have a handful of models from Cloud Cuckoo Land that I've wanted to do. Here's the first one. Stick around, there's more to come!

    @NDLG80. That looks amazing! I wish I could see it in person to see how you pulled of some of the trickier areas. Did you have to make many substitutions for part/color combinations that don't exist?

    @Mr Classic Are the table and chairs shown on-screen? If so, when? I missed them... I just made something up. I posted detailed images of my bathroom on the previous page of this post--about half-way down the page. Again, I made stuff up. I have no idea what is sticking out above the toilet tank (your second picture above). I have the feeling that there are pipes above the toilet and sink (your third picture above), but I just left them out because I couldn't figure them out. Thanks so much for the screen grab of the TV stand! I had made mine up. I updated my model to use what is shown above. I know the table shown in that picture is different than the one in Emmet's apartment. All of the angled items were placed individually in the way that you described. It took way more time than I'd like to admit. I don't know of any easier way to do this in LDD--it wasn't designed to do this. I wish there was an easier way.

    @Mr Classic. Here's a detailed view of my version of Emmet's kitchen. My table and chairs don't make much sense, but I made a few updates on a few other things..

    @Mr Classic Yup, it's some version of Emmet's kitchen back there. I assumed the placement of the cooker based on what i thought could be the exhaust hood on the left, but it just as easily could be on the back wall. I believe the piece you have circled is a LEGO Plate 1 x 2 with Handle (Closed Ends) (48336). I have some updates to my version of Emmet's kitchen that I will post next for you. @Kamora If you look at the top of the previous page in this topic, you'll find a post by GLAP23 that links to a very excellent and up-to-date model. Here's the last room of the house for Emmet's Super Cycle run:

    @ExeSandbox Thank you so much! @GeneralNumberOne I've been hesitant to post most of my models online. I don't want them to get abused. I hope you understand. Here's the first in my next series of posts. Emmet: "I wanna go home! That's not what I meant!!!"
