Night Parade of a Hundred Demons (Qiji K20114)

About this set

This KEEPPLEY K20114, part of the Onmyoji series, is a fantasy set rated 2/5 for difficulty, so it is friendly to newer builders. The build centers on a Japanese-style shrine with layered roofs, a lantern, a cherry tree, a moon backdrop, and a minifigure. The palette sticks to red, black, gold, blue, and pink: red and black carry the main structure, gold trims the eaves, and blue and pink show up on the blossom and lanterns. Start with the moon backdrop and cherry tree, then close up the building; the tricky part is lining up the stacked roof corners, and the small lantern parts go on last. The minifigure can sit apart from the building, which makes repositioning easy. A good display piece for fans of Japanese architecture and Onmyoji, and the low difficulty keeps the clutch count manageable for beginners.
