#lego moc tutorial

Please excuse this silly little random Good Omens LEGO one shot, brought to you by 'ineffably-queer-book-lover was recently asked to create a LEGO MOC of an espresso machine as a wedding gift'.

Apparently the happy couple (enthusiastic LEGO fans) in question was getting a certain kind of espresso machine (not a coffee machine, as I learned) as a wedding gift and their friends thought it would be fun to include a little LEGO miniature. So, yeah, I built them a MOC as close to the real deal as I could manage.

That got me thinking of Aziraphale and Crowley (a surprise to exactly no one) and what shenanigans they would get up to if someone gifted them a coffee or espresso maker. Obviously I couldn't resist to build a nice new sleek state-of-the-art machine for our ineffable duo and get them some appropriate cups!

Bonus 1: Cut scene (sort of) that actually shows Aziraphale's custom-made tea in his cup:

Bonus 2: The MOC as shown here if you want to build it yourself (most parts are original LEGO or at least available from LEGO in similar colors; the connector rings obviously aren't, but it would work without them if you attach the handles the other way round or just use simple 1x1 round plates for a coffee machine instead of an espresso maker). If you only want to use the smaller cups (for espresso, you know?), just leave out the 1x2 plate in the back:

You're welcome to build it yourself! 🤗 I tried to use very common parts, so it can be recreated in various colors, too (the one for the wedding was bright red)! 🤗 ☕ 🍵 ☕ 🍵 ☕ 🍵

Tagging the usual crowd with the customary addendum to please let me know if you want to be added to or removed from the list! 😘
