Instructions for Christmas Build-Up Models

Throughout the first 24 days of December I had been posting about the Advent Calendar and Christmas Build-Up models. Each day I designed and built a MOC (My Own Creation) using the parts leftover after building each day’s Christmas Build-Up model, and while some of them are holiday themed, most were not. So I have created instructions if you want to build them yourself.

All models require the parts found in the 75146 Star Wars Advent Calendar, and 40222 Christmas Build Up set, but they are all pretty common parts so if you have a decent sized collection you should be able to build them, possibly with some color substitutions (like I did for the other 8 reindeer on my Santa and Reindeer model. Also, in order to build more than one of these at a time, you might need multiple copies of the set or to tap into your parts inventory.

Sorry for getting them up so late–I meant to get them published before I left for my trip to Australia, but wasn’t able to get them all done in time, unfortunately. I’ve been debating whether or not to publish them, but decided better late than never.

Here are the 24 MOCs and links to their instructions. The instructions are available under Creative Commons license CC-BY-NC-SA. Note that from Dec 14-22 I was building the wrong day’s model, so this list has the corrected order, not the order they were posted in, and the date each was posted in is shown in parentheses. Click the image to see that image’s page enlarged, click the “Day N” link to see the original Advent page, or click the “Instructions” or “Page N” links below it to see the instructions. You can also view all these models and their instructions in the Flickr album.
