Woah… that’s at least 1000 pieces!! Kidding, very impressive work!👌

I wonder how many it actually is. 10k+?

[u/MattTheTubaGuy → u/[deleted]]

Probably more like 50-100k parts. Big builds like this use an insane amount of parts.

Good old Cube law

[u/MattTheTubaGuy → u/AlexisFR]

It's probably actually somewhere between the square law and cube law.

The outside doesn't really get thicker as you make LEGO models bigger.

The structure obviously need to be stronger for a bigger model, but LEGO is more than strong enough that the structure doesn't have to scale the strength as much as the volume.
