Title: Up and coming airship builders (lego art)!
Post by: Jason McMorgan on August 08, 2013, 02:48:52 pm
Evening  everyone, master (more or less) engineer McMorgan here bringing to the GoI art scene something a little different, and it includes the creations of something hopeful little artists.

To explain, I am a counselor at an art camp, working with around as few as three and as many as thirteen 5-6 year olds. My class is a lego class. That's right, we build Legos for 9 hours(morning class and afternoon vary.) Each day, we do a different theme for what we build, and today I just happened to have my steampunk goggles, and because Thursday are teamwork building day, I had an awesome plan.

"Alright my apprentices, today you four teams are charged with creating a new fleet for her majesty's air armada. You must work together to build your own unique airship or suffer banishment from the kingdom!"

This is what we got!

That's... Pretty cool, actually. The manipulation of children! Kidding of course, I'm sure they enjoyed making 'em.

Went ahead and built my own to show the kids an example of what a master lego builder can do  8)

A lot of those actually look like they could be pretty good ships.
