Read MoreSix years ago I lived in London. It may have been for not quite a year, but I lived there. I rode double decker buses, I ate fish and chips, I paid council tax and I avoided the dreaded TV detector vans (look it up). After my time there this MOC by wycbrandon resonates with me. While life was hard there, it was an amazing experience, and seeing landmarks I used to pass on my daily commute to Soho like Big Ben and the London Eye makes this an especially poignant art piece.
This is truly epic. It's really hard to gauge the scale of this MOC by UK LEGO and history buffs Brick to the Past, unless you really scrutinize it. It's actually over 16 square meters in size! That's like the size of a decent bedroom. Or to get a better idea, it's built on 105 large base plates. The only thing possibly more epic is the subject matter, the wall. It represented the northern border of the ancient Roman empire way back when.
I appreciate a good micro build, and this one caught my eye. According to Flickr user @fgr62 it is inspired by a BBC news report about a wedding prank taken to the next level, but to tell the truth it looks exactly like the little homes on the water front in Marina del Rey. Overall, a very clean and attractive build.
