Today's article is all about swords and shields. The medieval theme is a staple for LEGO fans, and one that is popular at exhibitions with young and old alike. In today's article, we’ll be speaking with a perfectionist MOC builder who has drawn inspiration for his builds from many different outlets, including the Harry Potter books and LEGO sets.

Can you introduce yourself for Bricknerd readers and tell us about your history with LEGO bricks? Guillaume: Hi everyone. My name is Guillaume, and I come from Dijon in France. I'm 37 years old, so I was born in the 80s and 90s. I was born with LEGO, and had the desire to build terrains and landscapes from scratch dreaming in front of old posters and catalogues from...

It was originally started by Aubree (Moctura_) (yes, the lover of all things Nightmare Before Christmas) and Martin Harris (bricksnaps) and is currently hosted by Aubree and Kate (brickhuntress) of the Let’s Build Challenge. Like many in the LEGO community, I was not a fan of minidolls. And at the time, I had no interest in Friends sets. I’m...
