Would you ever sell part of one of your LEGO MOCs? Are tells the tale of buying a chunk of his favorite MOC, “Victorian on Mud Heap” by Mike Doyle… with some assembly required.
Read MoreA hallmark of a really great MOC is when you can make a member of the general public go "wow, that's LEGO?" A Hallmark of an incredible MOC is when you can get me to go "holy crap, that's LEGO?" Mike Doyle has revealed the cover of his upcoming sequel to Beautiful LEGO, and it's absolutely, positively jaw-dropping.
Here at BrickNerd we like to look back from time to time, like that time some guy no one had heard of came out of his dark ages and BOOM, we get this. I believe my original response to this jaw-dropping MOC was "whhaaaaaaaaaa?". Mike Doyle has since established himself as a brick artist of the first calibre, and his book Beautiful LEGO has been a big hit. I'm honored to have been included in it.
This book is utterly gorgeous, from cover to cover. It goes far beyond a typical compilation of pictures, Mike has put a ton of work into this. From the thoughtful order and arrangement, to the meticulous coloration of some backgrounds he has gathered the art of others and his own and created new art, greater than the sum of it's parts.
