Introduction: Build a Lego Penguin (Tux the Linux Penguin If You Like)
Here's how to build a little penguin out of lego.
It may look pointless but consider these uses
Arctic Diorama/landscape
Decorations
exhibits
just to show how awesome you are
Or it could just be completely useless ;)
Step 1: Gather Materials
You will need the parts listed in the photo
I recommend using the same colours as i did first time then try with your own
Step 2: Base Assembly
Place the white 1x2 in the middle of the yellow 2x3 piece.
Then place the second 1x2 on top of that.
Step 3: Back Assembly
This is rather hard to describe
have a look at the picture.
Step 4: Add the Beak
Place half the yellow 4x4 on the white bricks ONLY
Step 5: Add the Head
Place the black 4x4 on the top to cap it all off
Step 6: Finite
Now make more if you want, of all different colours!
or try to make an entire arctic scene.
If you have any trouble notify me and I'll try to send more pics

i'm someone who loves penguins and when i built this penguin, it turned out great. it's really tiny which is good because i can fit it in my pocket and show it around. thank you for teaching me how to build this!

Totally cool, I just love it!!!
I'd call it Tux Jr. Can you make us a Tux Sr. ?
(dla888's avatar reminded me that Tux is somewhat fat).

I'll give it a shot but with Year 10 exams coming up I don't know if I'll have time but if I do I'll give it a shot.
