Magellanic Penguins build front view

This kit has 3 penguins. There are 2 baby penguins and an adult. This build is unusual because the finished build’s front is on an angle.

First, I’ll discuss the adult penguin. I began by laying the base layer of bricks on my nanoblock pad. Then, I added the layers to build the body.

The next step is to add the wings. The wings hung down and added more layers, so it was tricky not to push the bottom of the wings out of place.

The rest of the adult penguin goes up in fairly straightforward layers. Then, the feet are added to the bottom of the build.

Next, there are 2 penguin chicks. They are built completely the same. Each chick is a straightforward collection of layers of bricks.

Things I liked:

  • I really like how many penguins are a part of this build

Things I didn’t like:

  • The area with the breaks is a bit funny because the whole build is on an angle
