“At the correct angle, the effect is pretty successful. I was skeptical at first, but as with pretty much all sets, I liked this a lot better once I had physically built it as opposed to just looking at pictures. It uses many of the same parts, at roughly the same scale, as... More 21002 Empire State Building, but achieves the opposite effect. Where the half-stud jumping on 21002 was a literal interpretation of the building's right-angle setbacks, here the technique is used to evoke a gradual slope.”
Full review at www.eurobricks.com
From Adam Reed Tucker and printed in the instructions book — “As an Architectural Artist, my goal is to distill the essence of a particular landmark into its purest sculptural form, especially at a small scale. I do not see my models as direct replicas, but as my artistic interpretations, capturing the spirit of these landmarks using... More LEGO® bricks as a medium. LEGO bricks are not commonly associated with art or seen as an artist's material. However, I've found that LEGO bricks adapt as naturally to my work as paint does to a painter or metal to a blacksmith. As I explore how to represent these buildings with the basic shapes of the bricks, the possibilities and challenges they present feel almost magical.”
