Hmm.
..
something
is off...
The Council of Creative constructionists
is all about iMagination. What you iMagine
is what you get. IM guessing you were
expecting a huge and spectacular building?
Yes, big and
impressive.
As the Destructor does
not believe in iMagination,
he is hindering our view,
so we only see a few
LEGO Bricks.
Then its up to
us to lend soMe
imagination
and see things
bigger.
Thats better!
Lets open
the door.
Its bigger inside.
some boxes are
special like that,
you know.
Indeed!
We cant fit in that!
silly blokheads.
What do you
Mean, Daniel?
Wheres the CCC?
Megs and the CCC
Pleased to
meet you.
My hearing?
Im on trial?
These are my old friends
Gitte and Neils, some of the
best LeGO Creators ever
Old-school designers like me.
This
place
sucks.
No! Well, yes. Sort of. You did
let him into our world. But
lets get this one down with
the other destructors first.
We should get him
into the prison abyss.
Then we can start
your hearing.
Wow! Look at
this place! So
many creators!
Hej
er, hello,
Megs!
BUILDING JOURNAL
These large LEGO bricks
are quite fun! But I cant
help feeling that something
is amiss in this amazing
place. Only time will tell.
Building Tip
Using larger plates that span
the width of your brick model
will add strength to your build
and reduce the complexity of
your model.
