Meet Cara (@fwakes_makes) with her magical elemental rollercoaster.
Here’s a little bit more about Cara and her MOC!
What got you into building LEGO as an adult fan?
I never really had LEGO as a child, but then when I met Nick that’s when I started building.
What’s the name of your build and what inspired it?
The elemental rollercoaster. I was inspired by using colour and LEGO Elves.
Roughly how long did this display take to design and build?
It took me around 6 weeks.
Is there a detail that people tend to miss?
People really tend to miss the hot springs in the middle of the build.
What’s the biggest challenge in bringing this build together?
The hardest part was the rollercoaster because I have never done anything mechanical.
What part of the display are you most proud of?
I’m really proud of how I finished the wave. The curve was really challenging to do.
Are you planning to display this anywhere else? If so, where can people see it next – or follow its journey online?
Hopefully but i am not sure, but you can follow me on Instagram @fwakes_makes
What’s your next LEGO project after this one?
I’m hoping to expand this build.
Additional: If LEGO could make a new theme what would you want them to make?
I would love LEGO to make a colourful fantasy theme, with fairies and mythical creatures, similar to Elves but different.
