Read MoreI've been to my fair share of Quidditch pitchs. I worked on the ride at Universal Studios, and just last week we were animating a small scale match in my studio. Luckily I'm a fan, and I'm also really digging this micro scale pitch by builder Oky - Space Ranger. I'm rooting for Gryffindor, how about you?
This sort of build warms my heart. This phenomenal quidditch pitch by builder britsnap1 is a father/son project and obviously a labor of love. It measures over seven and a half feet and is populated with a full audience of sports loving minifigures. A fevered match is in progress, and while I can't really tell, I'm betting Gryffindor is winning. Harry Potter himself would be proud.
Wookiewarrior has created the most accurate (in shape, color, and size) golden Snitch I have ever seen in LEGO! This is truly a masterpiece worthy of display, from a wizard of a builder. I can't speak for the interior structure of this build, but I think it would be super cool if you could actually throw it around with friends. I should also mention the awesome use of the wings from the recent Ant-Man Final Battle set, which are very realistic to the actual Snitch. A very cool, unique, and magical build!

Monet painted his garden many times, exploring changes in color and time of day. Meredith Najewicz follows his lead, rebuilding the LEGO Art Water Lilies set with a darker palette and some creative part substitutions to cast the lilies in a different light.
