@arcturionblade1077 2 года назад

This guy is living the dream. I love Lego and do build sets by official instructions but also enjoy building custom MOCs (My Own Creation) in my spare time. I find it very relaxing and works the ol' brain matter using problem solving and puzzle construction, figuring out how to get the correct shapes you want using the limited techniques and parts you have on hand. It's a definitely a challenge but it's fun. That said, I could never do it professionally since I only build in Lego for myself and couldn't take the pressure of doing it competitively with others.
