Current Progress on Zim's House

After nearly two days straight of working in Stud.io, I have successfully recreated the exterior of Zim's House in Lego form. My middle and index fingers are incredibly sore from operating the mouse and scroll wheel for so long. Next step is finishing the interior (the upstairs is going to be the proper lair since there's no underground), then going back to the drawing board on the Voot Cruiser, and finally, moving on to designing prints and minifigures.

Guess who's finally making progress on the lego set again

I pretty much just have the minifigs and assorted prints left. There's a lot of prints, so that'll take a while, but once I finish those the set will finally be ready to post on Lego Ideas!

Prints for the ship and front of the house are done

Some of them look a little wonky, but that's bound to happen when I'm drawing everything myself. Overall, I'm happy with this so far (although I might go back and revise the gnomes when I'm done. Their eyes are a little too close together)

Lego Gaz!

Out of my initial four designs, she was the problem child because the parts I originally wanted to use for her hair just don't exist in that shade of purple. I think I've been able to work around that well enough, though. Her hair still isn't as "clean" as I would have liked but I'm working with what I can get.

And that's the main four completed. Hoping to do Zim and Gir's Earth Disguises next.

Lego Dib is finished!

Fun fact: because of his cowlick, his head is slightly bigger than that of the average Brickheadz figure

The full line-up of irl builds (so far)

Instructions for Lego Zim, Gir, Dib, and Gaz are now available!

The .pdfs are in this Google Drive folder, free for anyone who wants to construct their own little brick-built invader for their shelf or desk space.

There's two files: one for Zim and Gir, and another for Dib and Gaz. I will update the folder as I finish more models.

Both sets of instructions have their own "Bill of Materials", including part numbers and colors, to make the acquisition of parts easier. I reccommend Bricklink for buying individual pieces.

Update on the Lego Set

Since the Voot Runner could not fit in the attic and I don't particularly want to rebuild anything, I have an empty space and I need help deciding what to put in it. Thanks to some suggestions from friends and from Reddit, I've narrowed it down to three ideas that I could reasonably fit there. Now it's time to decide which one will go in the set.

I'd like you guys' input on this. Which one should I put in Zim's House?

Hiding Room

Test Tube

Telescope
