Forget step-by-step instructions -- you're ready to design your own LEGO creations! The LEGO Builder's Handbook is the only guide you need for building totally out-of-this-world, wholly original models. What's the right scale to use for your LEGO model? How does SNOT, also known as sideways building, work? What's the trick to achieving smoother tapers? How do you design a LEGO sculpture? Find the answers to these questions and more in The LEGO Builder's Handbook. Unlock the secrets to advanced building techniques and take your creations to the next level. In this comprehensive, modern introduction to LEGO building, you'll learn how to:
- Build models that won't fall apart using masonry-inspired techniques
- Choose the right pieces while mastering LEGO measurement units and the geometry of basic elements
- Build using a variety of scales to create realistic replicas of real-world structures
- Create LEGO mosaics, curved shapes, and 3D sculptures using software like BrickLink Studio, LEGO Art Remix, and LSculpt
Full-color and packed with detailed illustrations, this book will also show you how to:
- Apply half-stud offsets using jumper plates to add subtle textures and realistic details to your models
- Use SNOT (studs not on top) techniques to build sideways, creating shapes and details impossible with simple stacking
- Build angled walls, cylinders, domes, and spheres using advanced techniques like brick bending, hinged polygons, and Lowell spheres
Unlock the secrets of the master builders with The LEGO Builder's Handbook. Whether you're a beginner or a seasoned builder, you'll learn to push the boundaries of your creativity and build your own models, brick by brick.
