Regular LEGO® -models are always provided with the Original LEGO® -Set number. A few models have been created by myself and can freely be used. Most of the models are regular LEGO® -models where the building-instructions are free to obtain. They are also made by me of the LXF file with Blueprint software. In case of non-standard LEGO® models, sometimes a few building instructions can be downloaded.

Often a corner wouldn’t fit, and we had to shave off some steel.MyBricks4U is a place where you can find all my models I build with LEGO® Digital Designer (LDD). “You needed a magnifying glass, and it really gave you a headache,” Kirsty recalls, “and even after we’d figured out more or less what the structure needed to be, we had all sorts of incidents in the past. The old CAD software couldn’t visualize the interior of the 3D model, so she had to count the individual LEGO bricks in each design and then estimate how big the safety structure had to be. That’s because safety concerns mean that Bright Bricks must use an interior steel structure to stabilize all models taller than one meter.ĭesigning the steel structures used to take Kirsty several weeks.

But Kirsty generally works on designing individual figures: “We create a 3D model of the design the client has agreed on and transform it into a model composed of LEGO bricks.” The virtual model then serves as the basis for the figure made of LEGO bricks and steel. The whole team pitches in when figures are particularly large or deadlines are tight. My parents own a toy store, and I’ve loved LEGO ever since I can remember.”īright Bricks assembles the models itself by hand, one brick at a time. The company south of London builds life-size models using LEGO bricks, which fulfilled a childhood dream of the trained industrial designer: “I always wanted to be a toy designer. When Kirsty House arrived at Bright Bricks for a summer internship two years ago, she knew she wouldn’t be going anywhere anytime soon.
