Building birds at minifig scale is an exercise in efficiency where every element counts. As we’ve seen in official sets and fan creations, it’s possible to create a wide range of bird species when you know which parts to draw on. Croatian builder Brick Ćaća has been on a Western kick of late and found a novel solution to add vultures to his desert landscape using long black hairpieces for their hunched bodies and the effect is uncanny. Different wigs work equally well for a variety of fluffy coats. I pity the poor outlaw buried in the sand, stuck with these buzzards who look ready to get ahead.
