Jameson42 Posted April 27, 2015 Posted April 27, 2015 Wingspread - Overhead by Jameson42, on Flickr After 2 1/2 years of work, 50,000 pieces, and hundreds of hours of building, I've completed Frank Lloyd Wright's Prairie School masterpiece in LEGO! The completed model is 5ft by 5ft, and will debut at KLUG's "Uke's Harley-Davidson" show in Kenosha, WI this May. It is also coming to Brickworld Chicago 2015 in Schaumburg, IL. Wingspread was built in 1937 for Herbert Johnson of S.C. Johnson in Wind Point, Wisconsin (just north of Racine). I kept a blog of my progress at www.buildingwingspread.com/. Check it out for some behind-the-scenes information. In the coming days I will be posting information about building techniques, packing for transport, and getting things "show ready".

JGW3000 Posted April 27, 2015 Posted April 27, 2015 (edited) Best MOC ever!!! As a closet-fan of FLW, I am duly impressed! Any chance of bringing it out East to New England? Edited April 27, 2015 by JGW3000 Quote
Chorduroy Posted April 27, 2015 Posted April 27, 2015 Congratulations! I've been following your progress for a while, and you knocked it out of the park on this one! Quote
Jameson42 Posted April 28, 2015 Author Posted April 28, 2015 Best MOC ever!!! As a closet-fan of FLW, I am duly impressed! Any chance of bringing it out East to New England? BrickFair? No current plans to come out that way, sorry. I've got a 16-month-old at home and we haven't even ventured thoughts of road trips yet. I don't think I've even been out that way since BrickFest 2000... :-/ Quote
Balbo Posted April 28, 2015 Posted April 28, 2015 Wow, that's amazing . I really like the architecture and the scale Quote
Vorkosigan Posted April 29, 2015 Posted April 29, 2015 For sure an amazing MOC, incredible details. Quote
