Back in August, CBC NL did an interview with NewfoundLUG members Matthew Zwicker and John Gillingham. Check out the video to hear Matthew explain “What the heck is a LUG?” and hear John describe how NewfoundLUG got started. The segment turned out great, with plenty of shots of member builds and sets. Thank you to Bricks & Minifigs for lending space for the shoot, and to CBC NL!
NewfoundLUG, and a love of Lego
Who knew Lego could be art? This group in the St. John’s area get together to create NewfoundLUG – Lego Users Groups – because they love the creating scenes with the classic toys.
SHIPtember 2018
SHIPtember – Build a LEGO spaceship at least one hundred studs in length during the month of September.
One of our LUG members (Swoosh Factor) is taking on the SHIPtember challenge this year and is sharing his progress via Flickr. Check out his build in the album below and keep an eye out for updates.
From the event organizers:
SHIPtember 2018
SHIPtember
One Month.
One Hundred (plus) studs.
Seriously HUGE.
Seriously FUN.
Build a SHIP must be 100 studs or longer between September 1st and October 1st. That’s it!
Work in progress (WIP) shots should be posted in The SHIPyard
Since a good portion of people are going off to school in September or otherwise disposed, you can start now as long as you start posting in the WIP thread – you have one month to finish.
Yes.
