8. Ojammo’s Hogwarts Castle Build
Now this is a project that seems like it was years in the making. YouTube user ojammo has been slowly but surely uploading videos over the past three years that chronicle the making of a massive custom-built Hogwarts Castle!
This most recent video, posted only a week ago, is a 22 minute odyssey into the details of this build. Most of the heart of the pieces look like they came from certain sets, but a majority of the build is about piecing all the sets together. We’re taken on a tour of inside Hogwarts Castle, visiting such notable places like the Great Hall, where all the students are having a nice meal as Dumbledore and company look on.
We get a peek inside Professor Snape’s potions room, where dozens of small bottles sit on a shelf. There’s even a nice shot of the trophy case, were Harry’s dad James’ name is still emblazoned on a plaque dedicated to the Best Seeker. The creators went into tremendous detail, giving essentially a little piece of the story in each created room.
Like we said, it seems this has been an in-progress project for a while. In some older videos, the user takes us on a video tour of creating the base of Hogwarts, which includes a lot of grey base pieces to mimic the rock the great castle is built on. It’s a fascinating glimpse at someone’s personal build, and leaving this channel a like on their videos may encourage them to continue, and make what’s already a huge piece even bigger.
