Microscale Masterpieces!
Article and Photography by Luigi Bombardiere Luigi Bombardiere has been building for about six years, when he joined an Italian community of LEGO fans on Facebook, Brickpatici. Initially fascinated by the LEGO Architecture theme, he started to try his hand at what bit of bulk elements he had at home (mostly coming from some of his children’s sets). It was there he remembers the first achievements, the challenges, and the nights spent building for pure pleasure… as he says, “Up trying to achieve what I wanted LEGO to be for me.” From the Architecture theme, Luigi went to Creator Expert sets, then to LEGO IDEAS, up to the latest themes, such as Art. He loves handling bricks. He also likes to collect some sets (the Pickup Truck, T1 Volkswagen, Ship in the Bottle, and Dinosaurs, for example). To replenish his bulk elements, he used to buy sets, but switched to buying parts directly from Bricklink.
