How do you make the leap from following explicit instructions for constructing official LEGO sets to designing your own original models? The answers are all right here in The LEGO Builder's Handbook. Within this compendium of useful techniques for eye-catching LEGO creations, you'll master basics like structuring sturdy walls, then move onto more sophisticated concepts like half-stud offsets and sideways building (SNOT). You'll learn how every technique works conceptually as each chapter builds upon the previous one, and benefit from examples of the author's expert methods used in real LEGO builds. Inspired by interesting insights and detailed explanations, you'll soon see the world like a LEGO artist, leading you to approach each build in a thoughtful way. From understanding the trade-offs involved in choosing the scale for a model, to knowing how to capture real-world details in bricks, you'll gain the tools and confidence to bring your own LEGO designs and ideas to life. Along the way, you'll learn how to: Break free from LEGO's regular grid of attachment points; Build angled walls and gracefully curving forms; Use free software tools to design photorealistic LEGO mosaics and life-like sculptures.
Deepak Shenoy has been an active member of the LEGO community since 2016, sharing his creations at conventions and on social media. His builds have been featured in BrickJournal, Blocks, and on websites like Brothers Brick and BrickNerd.
