This week we
continue our series of Special Interviews with another very talented guest of
honor is Djordje Dobrosavljevic a.k.a. Djokson. He is known for his colorful
and amazingly shaped character figures, robots and creatures of various kinds.
Photos from the work of our guest will be presented between the questions but
you should check the builders Flickr photo-stream for tons of amazing
creations.
Kaplan: We
already know you are one of the best LEGO MOC'ers in the world. What can you
tell us about yourself other than that?
Djordje: Thank you, I’m very flattered! My name is Djordje Dobrosavljevic, I’m 25 and I work as a translator. My main hobby is Lego but I’ve also got an interest in music and animation. Djokson is just a nickname I picked up over the years and it kind of stuck, so I ended up using it as an online handle too.
K: Do you remember the day when you got your first LEGO set? Which set was it? And How old were you when you started playing with LEGO bricks?
D: My first Lego set was 8534 Tahu from the original Bionicle line, I got it on release in 2001. I was seven back then.
K: What is your best/unforgettable memory involving LEGO?
D: I’ve had plenty of amazing experiences owing to the hobby over the years but I think having my builds featured in the Masterpiece gallery at the Lego House probably takes the cake!
D: That’s a tough one. I think I’m going to have to say 8563Tahnok, the Bohrok were an amazing set of figures.
