To accompany the Stone Lanterns from my last post, today I have a LEGO Torii to share. A torii is a traditional Japanese gate most often seen outside of shrines. Like stone lanterns, I find torii to be a pleasant piece of Japanese architecture and fun to recreate with LEGO bricks! Also like stone lanterns, each part of their construction has a name. I did my best to represent each named component in my model.
At 93 pieces it’s certainly not my most complicated model. However, I do think it’s my most accurate representation so far of something in real life that I’ve built a model of.
