2012 Year in Review
A compilation of what I've done in 2012.
After seeing so many others put together a mosaic of everything they built this past year, I decided to do the same - as you can see, I'm not the most prolific. Still, this has been a pretty big year for me.
On the top is the new banner for Brick Town Talk - I have just become a site admin after spending a little over a year as an author. We recently had to switch domain names - please update your bookmarks to www.bricktowntalk.com. Thanks to all that keep creating great works of LEGO architecture that gives me something to write about!
In the center left are two new modulars that make up the Cast Iron District. I took apart my original florist building to make them as I was never happy with my first attempt at the style - I'm still not happy, but I'm close. These are works in progress done as part of ILUGNY's exhibit at New York Comic Con, and right after that they went into the LEGO Store at Rockefeller Center. They are now back home, waiting for the finishing touches - lots more photos once that is done.
On the bottom left is my largest modular, the Bricklyn Borough Courthouse. Currently at the Stamford Museum & Nature Center in CT (again, courtesy my affiliation with ILUGNY), it also has been to Rockefeller and NYCC this year.
Finally, on the right, is my scale model of 15 Central Park West that was done for the National Building Museum's LEGO Architecture: Tower Ambition exhibit which ended in September. There it joined 15 models by Adam Reed Tucker - truly and honor to be in such royal company. It now lives not far from my desk at my job.
Thanks to everyone that has looked at and commented on my builds for the year. I already have a few things planned for 2013, so stay tuned in the new year.
