A few years back, Lego began offering a set called Lego Ideas that allowed users to submit ideas for new sets. The most promising ideas are subjected to a rigorous testing process before being officially released. These new designs let fans create models that are incredibly detailed and not available in other sets. It was through this process that the fantastic Voltron set came about. This set lets you build all five of the mechanical Lions and then assemble them into the legendary Voltron.
Other fan-created sets include this tribute to Japan’s most famous mountain. This set is massive in size and is packed with lots of unique details that you won’t find in any other sets. It’s also an excellent way to show off your love of Japan.
Another striking creation is this tribute to the Star Wars franchise. It includes all the iconic weapons of the Star Wars franchise and much more than you normally get in a set. It’s one the most amazing sets we’ve seen in a long time.
Since a long time, professional Lego artists have created stunning Lego creations. Mariann Nathan is one such artist who has worked as a Lego designer freelance for many years. Her portfolio includes everything from replicas of landmarks to a ladybug that is four feet tall and a life-size Pirate.
Another important Lego artist is David Hughes, who recreates famous paintings in brick form. He has a piece of Afternoon of a Faun on for sale, but beware, it is not cheap.
