That's awesome! Was it Stud.io? Super easy to use and can query bricklink for the parts.

Cool looking design!

Not sure what software it was, but its a 13-year-old kid doing it. Awesome. He is struggling with the wing though (instead of a sail it has an articulated wing) and how to make it. Here's a picture - any advice welcomed from Lego fans. Current discussion is around using a plane's wing.

I'll ask Connor tonight and see if he has any suggestions.

I grabbed this and an LED lighting kit for it. Nice build. They didn't need to bother putting the parts in for the Targa though. 930 Turbo all the way!

So we showed Team Denmark Josh's model and they invited him to their tech base to meet the team!

Walking around on board!

Lego can take you places!

Nice!

My (then 9yo) built this A380 during the first lockdown in 2020. Maybe we should show Qantas to see if he can get a tour of one of their planes.

Good friend at work who is leaving after 7 years gave me this!
I'll build it later in the year when I'm having some time off for an eye op. I feel a time lapse coming on!

Probably remiss of me to not post a few pics of this little build that showed up at our local Lego show a few weeks ago.





Built by Aaron Monaghan and Martin Harris.

You got to see it! That thing is just insane. The amount of money people are willing to throw at Lego is also insane.

My wife did a bit of a tidy up on our little Lego room recently:

Yeah, they kept it very quiet in the lead up too, so very few people knew about it before we saw it.

There's a story to it for that weekend as well. They spent 6 months building it (in a storage rental place) and making it modular and movable, then the night before setup day they packed it into the truck in parts, but someone put a ladder in the truck on the wall and didn't tie it on, so it fell onto the model on the drive and broke many of them.

When we arrived on setup day is was just a pile of parts on the floor, they then spent that night and much of the first day of the show rebuilding it, and then had it finished for the second day. That's the reason for a lot of the gaps in it in the photos (apparently when the truck arrived a whole heap of parts were missing, probably spread all over the road on the way to the hall). Aaron tells me that they plan to take it to other shows over the next year (Brickvention in Melbourne in January, and Brixpo in Adelaide in July again next year) but will have it in much better shape for those shows.

The amount of money people are willing to throw at Lego is also insane.

Apparently they stopped counting parts and cost, some things are better off not known I guess!
