Mont-Saint-Michel is an island off the coast of Normandy, France. It looks like a walled city.
The build begins with outlining the island on a 20×20 clear blue baseplate. The next few layers are rings that make the outline smaller. Then, the ring is closed off by placing a 10×10 plate in the center of the ring.
There are a couple more layers until there is another unique placement. A brick is placed at an angle. The studs on the layer below are properly placed so that when the angled brick is placed, the brick is sturdy.
The rest of the build is very straightforward, going up in layers.
