Brick Fest Live - San Diego

Setup at the San Diego convention Center.

 San Diego is different.  The local LUG attends this event, so there are lots of other displays there.  

Here is a scan of the display from right to left.  This is the first show where we had an Easter Egg list for people to find small but detailed items.  Also the crane has been moved for the ore processing facility.  The ore processing facility will be next to the space port.

Here we have two ore carriers leaving the vicinity of where the ore processing will be.  Right now it is all done by hand.

The beginning of a possible conflict.  One of the native inhabitants has climbed on to the space port as is fighting with the Blacktron Empire guards.  The alien was done by my middle grandson.  We will be adding another one soon that looks like it is crawling out of the abyss and on to the space port.

In Nov of 2021 was the very first Brick Fest Live that we attended and it was in San Diego, though that year it was a Del Mar.  Here is the display from back then.  There was no back, only the front.

Finally a videos from the event.

Brick Fest Live - Pleasanton

 This show was fairly low key.  We were one of two people that were displaying.  So we were a big attraction.  

This table is always popular and the kids will spend 20 minutes trying to out do the creations on the table.

The brick pit is always popular.

Every Brick Fest has large floor mural that is a collaboration of the attendees.  Get a plate, a box of tiles and plan.  Once the attendees finish their base plate, it is added to the floor mosaic.  After having been at several of these you can tell how many people have pre-purchased by the size allocated for the floor mosaic.

And here are two videos that people did from this event.

Brick Fest Live - Reno

 

This is the first time for Brick Fest in Reno.  Nice for us since we live close by.  But us and one other small display was it for displays.   I talked to lots of people who had no idea they could display their creations at this event.  Hopefully I recruited several more people if Brick Fest Live decides to come back.  Here are the pictures.

At some point I need to build more of these.  I have the instructions, they just need some work.  Work for the grand kids.

The space port is getting bigger.

It was a nice turnout and we got to busy to take pictures of the crowd this time.  But we got a few.

 

Here is a link to the local news in Reno segment.
