Hello! I’m a longtime fan of Lego, but have never been apart of any group. My wife and I enjoy peacefully building sets together, but I really enjoy designing MOCs. My current big project has been designing a digital scale model of downtown. If you are on Reddit, you may have seen it. Here are a few pictures, as well as a link to the ongoing album for those who are interested.

May 11, 2023 at 9:23 am #52558Bob GrierParticipantWelcome @dijonmoneyear!! Your microscale model of Pittsburgh is looking great!!! Hopefully you have plans to build it sometime down the road so you can display it at some of our events!! I can assure you from first-hand experience that it will be wildly popular!!
I’m also become a fan of microscale building and have been working on my own physical version of Pittsburgh for over 2 years now! Mine started with just the downtown triangle and has grown a little bit each year from there.
Look forward to meeting you and sharing ideas!!

May 12, 2023 at 7:00 pm #52585Will McDineParticipantYour whole city looks amazing, But my favorite part has to be the Duck!. LOL welcome to the club!
May 23, 2023 at 5:23 pm #52780Krista KModeratorWelcome to the group! What type of sets do you and your wife like to build?
May 24, 2023 at 8:42 am #52787DijonMoneyearParticipantMy wife and I really enjoy Harry Potter sets, but the set we are really looking forward to is Rivendell. The nerdier the better!
May 24, 2023 at 8:49 am #52788DijonMoneyearParticipantGreat work! I’d love to eventually build my model some day. Maybe section by section, and whenever I have more space to do so. Hopefully we can meet some day!

We have a lot of HP fans here! You’re in good company. Looking forward to meeting you both at a future event. 🙂

See the attached photo from Brickfair Virginia 2011. The LEGO Group’s first skyline set was created in 2016.
