Impressive, it looks to scale even. I thought the first picture was real at first, but then noticed its actually the same bridge as the next picture. The little lego men statues on top of the cathedral was a very nice touch.

:shock: Holy crap! My mind boggles at the thought of the amount of time and effort (not to mention money) it would take to accomplish something of this magnitude. My hat comes off to whomever is responsible for this masterpiece.

Is this in a Legoland or something?

Because I doubt even the most dedicated amateur wouldn't be able to put together something like this.

In the bottom picuture, there's a crowd in the background. I guess it's in a legoland. Damned fine regardless though.

According to Starbound, it's a problem solvable with enough combat drugs to turn you into the Incredible Hulk.

That, my friends, is hardcore. Now, if someone with engineering expertise were to design a lego MBT, well...

I looked at the crane truck, and it's already impressive just looking at it, but seeing how much work had to be put in the suspension system alone makes it even more so.

Makes me wish I had better ideas for models than a LEGO dick. I tried making one, but since I wanted to make it the size of mine and only had 8,000 bricks, I could only finish the left nut.
