How To Get Paid For Playing With Legos

Carl Greatrix and the rest of the model team at Traveller's Tales ensure that every Lego model in the games can be built by fans. Using official Lego pieces, they construct everything that you see in the game by hand or with digital recreations. It seems like a great job, but it's not without its challenges. Carl Greatrix has unknowingly spent his life training for this exact task. Starting out as a child and building increasingly complex Lego designs (check out his latest masterpieces on his Flickr account), Carl has contributed his craft to a majority of the Lego games. 

Watch the video below to see some of his more impressive builds and learn what it takes to adapt and design Lego models for a living.
