As the pre-production phase of the BrickLink Designer Program is beginning to wrap up by the end of May, many projects are finalizing their designs for the crowdfunding stage. In the past day, there have been two additional projects that have been archived which include the Temple of Hermit by Brickfornia and Japanese Old Style Architecture by TAXON55.

The Temple of Hermit was archived “due to the complexity of revising the model for the program.” The Japanese Old Style Architecture was withdrawn “due to other obligations” from the designer. These projects join the three from RobenAnne that were withdrawn last month and it leaves 26 projects left to potentially move on to the crowdfunding phase.
