[Previously: Rivendell 2012]
Alice Finch, who you may recall did the amazing LEGO model of Hogwarts, has teamed up with David Frank to re-create one of the most renowned settings in all of Middle-earth, Rivendell, in LEGO bricks. Anyone frequenting this blog will recall that Rivendell is “the last homely house west of the mountains,” where Elrond hosts first Bilbo and later Frodo at the beginning of their quests. While the fabled realm has fired the imagination of nerds for generations, Jackson's recent films have acted to codify the actual appearance of the city, which has given rise to all forms of artist interpretations.
This model is composed of 200,000 Lego bricks, and it ended up winning the People’s Choice Award at BrickCon... you know, right before they shut down the competition altogether because clearly no one will ever top it. Make sure you follow the link to The Brothers Brick for more pictures and an interview with these two too-humble builders.
