Today was a very exciting day, because Ladybug got to add the penultimate member of the Fellowship, Legolas, to Lego Rivendell:
She put together bags 40 & 41, which add nice covered entrance with even more tiny square roof tiles…I believe she attached all of the roof tiles for the entire set! She also added a table with lembas bread.
Pictures don’t really show how truly immense this set is…we’re running out of room on the table to build it! I looked up the measurements of the completed set before I ordered it, but even that didn’t do it justice.
Today Ladybug built bags 37, 37, & 39 of Lego Rivendell, and they all joined together to make one large roof panel covered with a zillion tiny little square tiles:
She really enjoys lining up them up just so, and she’s really good at it (and super patient…I would have lost it trying to get them straight!):
I was starting to wonder when Gandalf was going to arrive to Lego Rivendell, but as he said, “A wizard is never late, nor is he early, he arrives precisely when he means to,” and here he is, staff in hand:
Turkey continued the upward build of the structure with bags 33 & 34, too, which included some arches and balcony railings:
I think we’re only missing three members of the Fellowship at this point, and we only have a week of building to go!
Today Chickadee worked on extending the base of the section of Lego Rivendell we’re currently working on, adding bags 31 & 32…I think the angle it juts out at makes it look really interesting!
