Question : How can you build the nose of a ship without slanted bricks?
Answered by : Allen Demers, LEGO Model Designer

You can do this a couple of ways, but I would recommend to just "step" regular LEGO bricks -- out one, up one, out one, up one (or at whatever slope you want). This may look too blocky for your liking, and you will have to play with spacing to get it right. It won't be easy!

Question : Every time I try to build something with my Bionicles by myself, I make a mistake. Can you help me?
Answered by : Allen Demers, LEGO Model Designer

It takes patience to avoid mistakes. Go slowly and follow the instructions carefully. Make sure you do not miss any part of a step before moving on to the next step. Practice, amd patience, makes perfect. When you make a mistake, try to remember it. If you remember a previous mistake, the chances are that you won't make it again.

Question : If you have about 1,000 of LEGO bricks and need inspiration, what could you do?
Answered by : Allen Demers, LEGO Model Designer

Take a look through some books on your favorite things or hobbies to find inspiration. I like racing, so I would look through a racing book or magazine for a car that I could make in a smaller scale. Or I might try to improve the car and make a better one than the original designers made!

You can do the same thing with trains, planes, buildings, and many other things. First pick an object and then decide how you are going to make a unique design. Will you make the tallest building? The fastest three-wheel car? A famous train in a smaller scale? The newest robot to help build a better world? It is up to you!
