[DIY & Creativity] Finished - Hello, New York magnet

It took me longer than I expected, but it turned out so cute! As usual, I painted every edge…but this time I also painted the back of everything so that you didn’t see any plain wood. I love that the hot air balloon can move up and down by turning gears. The only thing I would change in this kit is I would have wanted one building that had a light inside, or even a street light.
I will be attending the Robotime 9th Anniversary event in New Jersey this weekend, so my husband and I are going to take a train into New York to see the 9/11 museum and monument. It will be my
First time to New York, so building this kit was extra fun for me!

I love that it’s a magnet! I only have two builds on my fridge so far…I guess I’m gonna have to do something to change that! :slightly_smiling_face::heart:

This is a nice one! Do they have a series of this one? I saw another brand and there’s like 6 of them. But it’s pricey though

@Tkaplan painting every edge and back gives the New York magnet a polished finish, while the moving balloon adds a delightful detail.

This turned out so cute. It has captured many famous landmarks. New York’s one of my favorite cities. I’m sure you’ll enjoy it. There are so many places to see, and 9/11 is just one of them. Don’t forget to visit the WTC Oculus, beautiful architecture.

Have fun at the Rolife anniversary event! :smiling_face:
