LEGO ART Hokusai - The Great Wave Craft Set 31208 (18+ Yrs)

Simple and easy to follow set that rewards you with a great piece of art.

The work had an interesting 3D impact. It was not difficult to put together. But there were lots and lots of small pieces and my finger tips were really sore. I had to discipline myself to only build 4 bags of pieces per day - mostly to let my finger tips recover. Just take your time and pay attention to the instruction manual.

My first set in the LEGO art line and it looks amazing. I learned about this woodblock print back in college art history. It translates beautifully to brick form and does so for a great value. No cheaping out with stickers as it has 3 different custom printed bricks. That is a great detail to make this a solid wall hanger.

I would say having this in your own home is having the piece of artwork right there. All i could say its not small or huge. Its the size of actual artwork maybe you see in a museum. It takes awhile need music and netflix to build it

Had a lot of fun building this painting. Would recommend.

A bit heavy...not a complaint. It just is. Now, I am trying to figure out where and how to hang it.

Having seen the real painting I knew I had to purchase this set, and I can say it is a very faithful representation of the real painting. Great fun to build and looks amazing on the wall, from a distance it looks like the real Hokusai The Wave painting. A bit tricky to build as you have to pay attention to the instructions to make sure the pieces are placed in the right location and in the right position, but I enjoyed the challenge. Highly recommended

I absolutely love the art ideas sets. I took a sick day and worked on it. I hung it in my sunroom. It was pure therapy.

This is my second Lego art set (after the World Map!) and I really enjoyed putting it together. Really great unwinding activity, both with the accompanying soundtrack or with a movie in the background. Now where to display it...

I saw this on sale and decided to treat myself. It was such a delight to see the 3D scene come to life as I was building and the finished effect with the use of the flowers and birds is amazing. It's a really beautiful piece of art but slightly let down by the frame with some of the white tiles being of slightly different shades. It's very easy to remove the picture from the frame to display it. Overall I'm very pleased with my purchase.

Stunning, complex, riveting, so faithful to the original. I enjoyed every minute of this experience!

I bought this it was hung from the wall, I guess the wall anchor wasnt strong enough, so it fell and shattered, and I cant find all the pieces. But lucky for me this is a famous painting, so I was able to get a print online, and when that one fell off of my wall. It didnt shatter. I would just recommend getting a painting.

I live in Houston and the night before Hurricane Beryl hit I started this Lego art project. I finished it in the next few days with no power and to be honest, it helped distract me from what we were dealing with. That alone was worth the money spent. At 1,800+ pieces it adds three dimensions and value to what might be considered one of the best examples of mass produced pieces of art ever created. Even Hokusai's original work was mass produced by him so the trend continues but this adds to it in an amazing way. The night before Beryl hit I scanned the QR code to listen to the commentary and it really added to the experience. It was a brilliant idea on behalf of Lego that added even more value to this set. The build was enjoyable, the instructions easy to understand, and the way the art attached to the frame was brilliant. Good job Lego!

Ever since I was a little kid this was one of my favorite pictures and to be able to build it in Lego was awesome.
