Meet the
fan designer
José María from Spain, known by his friends as
‘Chema’ and by the LEGO
‘hachiroku24’, has studied physics and fine arts, and
currently works full-time running his own YouTube
channel about LEGO building. A lifelong fan, he
constantly finds inspiration for new builds in
his hobbies – movies, comics, photography
and nature:

‘I love animals. I don’t have a background in biology
or entomology, but I’ve always found insects
interesting, and loved learning about different species
and their rules and roles in our ecosystem – predators,
vital pollinators with incredible jumps, webs, flying
techniques, giant horns, the colours… They look
like nothing else on our scale, almost otherworldly!
You won’t see these popular insects together in real
The in sects from José’s orig inal
submis sion to LEG O® Idea s
life (they are from completely different parts of the
world), but I like the little dioramas we added, to
show the insects looking alive, like in nature. And
each of them has very different building techniques
that I hope people will really enjoy. Seeing your
own LEGO set on shelves is a dream I could only
achieve through LEGO Ideas. Thanks to everyone who
supported the idea!’

From the LEGO® Ideas
design team
‘I love LEGO® models that people don’t initially recognise
as LEGO bricks! José’s insects have so much character,
and each display tells a story inspired by the biome they
inhabit. Making them free-standing was a challenge, as they
have very thin and poseable limbs and I wanted to ensure
this was carried through into the final model. We decided
to create the insects on an approximate life-size scale
and developed new decorations for the smaller 7-spotted
ladybug and the honeybee. We have a fun little Easter egg
you can only spot while you are building the model, and I
hope fans appreciate the attention to detail.’
– Jordan David Scott, LEGO Ideas Design Manager
‘José’s original model is so well designed! Giant bugs
are fascinating. They seem alien in our world. I did a lot
of research on bugs and tried to translate the detailed
patterns, eyes etc. into the LEGO graphics style. A mantis’
eyes are crazy detailed and complex, so that was a super
fun challenge! I am really happy with how the graphic on
the butterfly’s wings ended up integrating with the pattern
in the build. On the butterfly, you might notice that the 1×1
round flat tile with a white spot on it is used as part of the
butterfly’s pattern. This deco is actually used as eyes for
different LEGO animals and characters!’
