LEGO CUUSOO

Ever since I was a child I have been a huge Titanic and Lego enthusiast and this model was made especially for the centenary of the sinking.

It's made mostly from old '70s standard Lego bricks with the addition of some technic elements for the masts, moveable cranes and lower portholes - no fancy virtual software involved! She's built from scratch with rivets and hard work (i.e. sore fingers), just like the real thing.

LEGO needs a Titanic set and of course this would have to be a 'Lego classic' set, serving both as an homage to the lost liner, as well as a tribute to the classic Lego brick.

The RMS Titanic is one of the most beautiful and aesthetic ships to ever have sailed the seas, and my main focus with this model was to keep her dimensions right. So, given the scale and the bricks at my disposal, this explains for the omission of the C-deck portholes as well as the not rounded smokestacks (measuring 3 by 4 studs, they'd simply become either too small or too big).

The model is build as an empty shell, making it very easy to install light inside to glow out through the windows and portholes at nighttime. A truly spectacular sight!
