Build a small model of your dog, then build a giant version of it.

  • New skill Scaling up: bigger but the same shape
  • Level 1 · The Village
  • Difficulty Beginner
  • Mode Creative
  • Time 40–50 min
  • Ages 13+

What you’ll build

Honour your dog with a giant statue. You'll build a small model first, then choose a scale and turn every block into a bigger cube as you build the giant version. Add the head, ears, tail and collar, then stand your real dog beside it.

Finish line: You have a small model and a giant statue that both look like the same dog.

Bonus challenge: Add a name sign at the bottom, like a museum statue.

You’ll need

  • Wool or concrete in your dog's colours
  • Your dog
  • A big empty space

You choose

  • Sitting or standing pose
  • How big (2 times or 3 times)
  • Where the statue goes

Stuck?

  • Shape looks wrong? Go back to the model and count again. One block in the model becomes a whole cube in the giant.
  • Running out of room? Scaling up uses far more blocks and space than you'd expect, so start in a wide open area.
  • Build the giant one layer at a time from the bottom, checking the model as you go.
