Building Tip

Slopes are good for

making scales or the

spikes on a dragon’s

back. Angled plates like

these red ones make

great wings.

Building Tip

Building dragons is fun. Focus on

iconic details like head shape, wing

size, body mass (skinny or fat), and

tail length. This will help to dene the

character of your dragon. There are

thousands of variations you can build.

Yes, lovely...

I’d love to

destroy it!

Heo, thank you for

building me. please jump

on my back. The council

wants to s you both

iediately!

I can fly

alongside on my

Transport-o-lux.

Let’s go!

There we go.

what a lovely

dragon!

LEGO Building System

Slopes

Use slopes for making roofs, scales for creatures, and any angled

edges.

Bows and Arches

Bows and arches add curves and gentle contours to your model.

Bricks

Standard LEGO bricks are great for the main structure of a model.

Three LEGO plates are one LEGO

brick high.

Five LEGO plates built sideways

have the same width as a brick

that is two studs wide.

The stud reversal technique lets

you build in opposite directions.

Plates and Tiles

Plates are a good way to give your model detail. Tiles create smooth,

stud-free surfaces for a sharp, clean look.

Jumper plates allow you to

“jump” one half stud out of

thenormal system.

Clips and Bars

Combine clips and bars to create hinges. Hinges allow you to build at

any angle on a model.

A LEGO bricks are

part of the LEGO

Building System. Every

piece is designed to fit

together in a consistent

and logicalway.
