EJ is 40 years old and from Kent Ohio where he lives with his wife Abbie and dog Penny. He is a professional LEGO artist, designer, and entrepreneur. Formerly he was a professional figure skater and a hich school math teacher. He would often incorporate LEGO into his lessons.

He has won numerous awards for his LEGO creations and has competed in competitions like speed builds, one-handed builds, building with only one hand, even blind folded builds!

EJ has been building since he was 5 years old, so, 35 years of experience to date! While a majority of his work is digital he loves to dump out random bits to see what he can create next.

One of his favorite LEGO builds would be his Joker mosaic which took him 100 hours of planning and building. The mosaic is made up of approximately 8,000 pieces.

EJ has sold dozens of his mosaic artwork pieces and has made a pretty penny on some of them. He shares a business with his wife, AbbieDabbles, where they design and create small custom kits and mini figures that they sell online and in person at LEGO events across the country.

Tilt, aka “The Dude”, is a 46 year old tattoo artist from Champaign, Illinois. He has been married for close to 20 years and has 3 children, Zeke, August, and Evelyn. 

Tilt was voted “most likely to be a tattoo artist” in high school which at the time was funny because he was in the scholastic bowl and played golf for all four school years.

Tilt and his wife are Halloween-obsessed; they got married on Halloween and even build props for their Halloween displays every year.

LEGO was therapy for Tilt as a child while one of his siblings dealt with a rare diagnosis and many hospitalizations.

Tilt has been seriously building for about 6 years now and mostly likes to focus on Batman inspired builds.

Tilt placed top 5 at the BrickWorld 2022 Convention for, "Best large individual layout".
