Flying saucer, a brick build

LET’S MAKE A LITTLE SOMETHING

Flying saucer

42 pieces 16 steps

A broad yellow saucer rests on three feet. Lift its blue lid and let the Moon alien ride in the open cockpit, antennae pointing towards the stars.

Free instructions. No account needed.

Have these shapes handy: Roof slope.

A little before you begin

The lid lifts off as one piece; it does not hinge. Leave it off while the alien is aboard.

The Moon alien is a separate build with its own guide and inventory. Its antennae stand above the cockpit.

Move the craft by its lower body. The three feet are fixed.

Count studs to check gaps and overhangs. New pieces keep their colour; earlier pieces look lighter. Before you build →

A LITTLE PREPARATION

Gather your pieces

Match the shapes and quantities. The pictures show our colours. Colour names in the steps refer to the pictures; keep useful contrasts, such as a light belly against a dark body.

WHEN THE BUILDING IS DONE

Now for the little story.

Lift off the lid and invite the Moon alien aboard for an open-cockpit journey. Land on a paper planet and ask what the visitor has found. Take the alien out, then replace the lid to park the empty craft.
