recall back to your best LEGO foundation , and then compare that to Adam Tucker ’s LEGO Roman Colosseum . Yeah , that castling with one gun turret is n’t quite up to snuff . But do n’t be jealous , because this dude is a LEGO professional person , and his approaching exhibit at Chicago ’s Museum of Science and Industry shows off some serious accomplishment .
TheMSI exhibitrunning now through February 2017 includes more than a dozen mammoth LEGO structures , many of which were built by Adam Tucker , an ex - architect and one of only 14 LEGO Certified Professionals . His display LEGO creations are all based on famous cosmopolitan landmark , include the Roman Colosseum , The Great Pyramid of Giza , and the Golden Gate Bridge , among others .
To create these anatomical structure , Tucker did n’t apply a computer to get along up with innovation , according to CityLab , but prefer to rely on pic , Book , DVDs , and other " Old - schooltime resource . " Tucker sounded just like any LEGO - obsess spring chicken when he told CityLab , " I just collect anything and everything I can , and then I just start tinkering and playing with dissimilar parts that I think might double this well or that well . "
