Brickrik

Over the last year or so I have been trying to improve my Lego building skills. I love all kinds of Lego, but I'm pretty much obsessed with Harry Potter Lego. I can't get enough of it! I'm always building and this is my latest MOC. It's part of a much bigger model, but I really think it stands up well by itself. Introducing. King's Cross Station: I've really wanted this to be a playable/functional set, but with lots of details. Here are some close ups so you can have a proper look: Hope you enjoy it and please if you have any tips/feedback on my builds let me know. "The road to success is constantly under construction......with Lego bricks"

After only building the Hogwarts castle I decided to try my hand at creating more of the Harry Potter Universe It took about 3 months in total to make and it was a lot of fun. Unlike my other sets I've made this one much more playable. All the buildings move and the areas are much more spacious. The model includes. 1.The Lake 2.The Quidditch Field 3.The Whomping Willow 4. Hagrids Hut 5. Hogwarts Castle 6. The Burrow 7. The Leaky Cauldron 8. Diagon Alley 9. London King's Cross 10. Platform 9 and 3/4 11. The Hogwarts Express and Hogsmeade Station Enjoy. The model includes: To get a better feel for the model I've included the link to the Youtube video. It's pretty much just a nicely put together slide show that shows the model in more detail. give it a watch if you get time.https://youtu.be/sj2okW56xSsThanks for your time.

It took about 13 bricklink orders and a few bulk buys on Ebay.

The top of the Owlery (the highest tower) is 104cm tall.

Nice suggestion on the panning, it really is hard to tell what room is where on the video. Sorry you didn't dig the yellow skins and fleshies together. I really thought it gave a sense of the many types of people that went to Hogwarts, but maybe it's just confused the viewer. I'll need to think on that one, but thanks for the feedback....I'll use it.

Here goes at posting some pictures.

How do I post pictures?

This is my attempt at an accurate, detailed, modular, Lego Hogwarts. I’ve based the build around the original Lego Hogwarts (4709) In my opinion the one that captures the vast, openness, magical experience that is Hogwarts. I knew from the start that the build was going to be big so I decided on three modules that can be played with separately or put together to create a huge Hogwarts. Pushed by my son and daughter it’s built so that all the rooms are accessible through traditional means – staircases, doors, passageways, corridors and secret passages. Here are the Rooms/areas of the castle I included. 1. The Herbology Lab 2.The Entrance Hall 3. The toilet. 4. The Chamber of Secrets 5. The Defence Against the Dark Arts Classroom 6. The Hospital Wing 7. Dumbledore’s Office 8. The Ravenclaw Common Room 9. The Divination Classroom 10. The Hufflepuff Common Room 11. The Kitchens 12. The Great Hall 13. The Library 14. The Gryffindor Common Room 15. The Owlry 16. Snape’s Class 17. The Slytherin Common Room 18. The Charms Classroom 19. The Transfiguration Classroom 20. The Room of Requirement 21. The Stairwell 22. The Astronomy Tower 23. The One eyed Witch’s secret passage 24. The Room of Requirement (2) As for the mini figures I did my best to get the ones I could. However some are just far too expensive or you just can’t get them so I made them as best as I could. All in all in took 6 weeks building everyday to make. Hope you enjoy it as much as I enjoyed making it. So if you have time please check it out here. Feedback is most welcome. Rick
