"Temple of Kali"
Following the release of LEGO's Indiana Jones sets in 2023, and more specifically, the Temple of the Golden Idol set, I was inspired to create my own interactive movie scene based on the Temple of Doom.
My build features a black border like the set, as well as the Indy logo and a quote. It depicts the sacrificial pit beneath the Kali statue, where evil priest Mola Ram lowers a poor prisoner to his doom in a particularly heart-wrenching scene.
The two knobs on the front of the build control the pit's sliding doors, and the lowering and raising of the sacrifice cage, respectively.

"The Riley House"
See the dedicated page, "LEGO Models: The Riley House" for an in-depth look at how it came together!
My biggest build to date, weighing in at 23 pounds and containing over 13,000 LEGO bricks.
An exact, minifigure scale replica, it features a fully furnished interior and floor-to-ceiling details accurately reflecting my family's house in LEGO form.

"Land Rover from Maze Runner: The Death Cure"
The Maze Runner movies are some of my all-time favorites, and vehicles are a favorite of mine to build. Here I've recreated the yellow Land Rover Defender seen in the third Maze Runner film.
The roof rack, extra lighting equipment, rear ladder, and replaced side door are all screen-accurate.
This build was also my first attempt at a 6-stud wide car, my new favorite scale to build cars at.
