Today’s guest: Elbe Spurling, author and artist who spent 12 years creating a very accurate version of the Bible completely out of LEGO. Elbe also have a handful of other LEGO adaptations, including:
Elbe also has many non-LEGO projects I want to shout out:
If you’re a Clutch Power supporter, you’ll get a bonus act called: “Beautiful Inconsistency”. The Brick Bible is an OLD piece of online LEGO lore and comes from the days of LUGnet (which even I was too young for), and it’s fascinating to take a look back at that era of LEGO the Brick Bible so perfectly encapsulates.
You’ll also get access to a special MOC just for this episode! It’s a crucifix, and just like the Brick Bible, it’s kinda up to you: do you see it as genuine or satire?
It’s $2 / month to become a Clutch Power supporter, and you’ll get bonus content + a MOC for every episode!
