For the air/wind theme at Brickfair this year, I made a half-pitch of Quidditch at the last minute (i.e. started it at 10pm the night before Brickfair!).
Burning Day

Made for Brickfair 2014, as the theme this year is birds. This is an adaptation of a scene I made for a Harry Potter book contest a few years back. It was a lot of fun trying to find three of each item and build the Dumbedore’s office set identically three times.
Harry Potter & the Sorcerer’s Stone Story Tower

My dream is to make all seven books into story towers with bookends. After making the first book into a story tower with seven scenes, I realized how big they would have to be and I’m starting to rethink my strategy. I might have to make mini story towers instead or I might have to make them one at a time.
The Owlry

I built this for Brickfair 2014. The annual theme was “birds” and someone last year (forgive me!) suggested I make another owlry. My first project of this sort was part of my town of Hogsmeade MOC two years ago and was designed so that the Hogsmeade Post Office resembled a British post office box in style, structure, and appearance. This is a more classic Owlry, closer to the sort you see at Hogwarts in the movies. It’s not supposed to look exactly like the movie version, but it is meant to look closer to what you might see as part of Hogwarts.
I had great fun gathering up all my owls for this project. Of course I added a few fun extras like some rats the owls will soon be eating. And the roof is intentionally kind of crazy.

Harry Potter: Hogwarts Castle #4842
Another in the long tradition of Hogwarts castles, this one is more like a roundup of important rooms and a few nice sections not already featured in sets.

Harry Potter: Knight Bus #4866
Even though I already own a Knight Bus (or two) I had to buy the new Knight Bus set. There are some things I like better in the new version and some things I like better in the older version.

Here’s a list of all my MOCs from BrickFair 2010:
Finished MOC: Room of Requirement
July 10, 2010

This is a scene from Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince where Harry goes to the Room of Requirement (i.e. the lost and found room) to hide his potions textbook. This one was a lot of fun. I got to go through my LEGO and put a lot of random stuff in there. Lots of elements aren’t permanent, so every time I add them in, they are in slightly different locations. Each building/dressing of the room is completely unique 🙂
Finished MOC: Seven Potters
July 10, 2010

The Seven Potters scene from Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows where Fleur, George, Fred, Ron, Hermione, and Ginny use Polyjuice to appear like Harry so he can escape from Number 4 Privet Drive safely (in theory). This is the Dursley’s kitchen, just after transformation. I thought this would be fun to do because I have so many Harry Potter sets and, therefore, so many Harry Potter minifigs.
