you explain to us what are these alegre master builder does a legal master builder is employed by the Lego company and we design and build huge statues or sculptures out of Lego to represent the brand kind of as inspiration for kids to build so what was the most challenging part about designing Darth Vader I think the size size the most challenging part so so normally when we would design a model we'd have a full assortment of different pieces all the way down to 1 by 1 brick or a 1 by 1 plate and so it can be very tapered well when you're doing it as they was as an interactive event now you get a blocky shape and so trying to get to details in the sculpted part of Darth Vader and a life-size form 12 feet tall and that makes it a little challenging so to get a really good-looking dart but still be able to have the kids help with the with the large brains was probably the biggest we designed them originally in Maya which is a 3d modeling program and then we import that 3d image too into a program called Lego brick builder that changes that 3d image of Darth Vader all into 1 by 1 bricks these little little ones right here all into these and then we take and model it again and there and to create the one that you see behind us right here they say the most challenging mobile you've ever designed most challenging I think that probably a we did a car actually a Volvo car Volvo xc90 haul out of Lego and it had actual wheels they sent that's the chassis the car from Sweden what's your favorite thing about liquor my favorite thing about Lego is it's uh it's actually there's a couple things one is this as you push them down on there it fits and there's something right with the world you know what I mean I don't know I'm probably adding too much work but if there's something right there's something good because it fits together everything in this universe works you know you put it together it holds together it works and so there's something satisfying I don't know what it is in the brain that that creates that but when you put it together it fits it works and so it doesn't matter what you make and when you push it down and stud it down as I call that's it's it's gratifying it's it's a it's a good feeling it's a feeling of accomplishment and then the other part of it is is I enjoy working with my hands I enjoyed sculpting I'm still able to do that with a medium and as a fine artist it's very hard to find a job you know what I mean where you can create all the time and so this I can create all the time and I can build and create different things and it's never boring I've been doing this 21 years and still love putting these things together
