The model USS Intrepid was crafted out of 250,000 LEGO(register tm) bricks, and is nearly 4.5 feet high and 4.5 feet wide. Diment resides in Portsmouth, England, where he originally built the model after visiting the Intrepid Sea, Air & Space Museum while vacationing in New York.

On display: February 4, 2012 through July 8, 2012
Ever marvel at a model ship and ask, “How did they build that?” Or, perhaps, “Why did they build that?” A fascination with history, technology and the sea has stirred ship model builders for thousands of years. Ship-Shape explores variations of two famed U.S. Navy ships – the frigate USS Constitution and the battleship USS New Jersey (BB-62) – that offer a peek at the art and craft of ship model building. |
