In 2009, the Brickman's creation won Best in Show at Melbourne's "Brickvention", and was later displayed at the LEGO Brickworld event in Chicago, USA.
The impressive construct caught the eye of a LEGO executive and McNaught was invited to become a LEGO-certified professional.
Six months later, Ryan became the only person in the Southern Hemisphere to be recognised as a certified LEGO builder.

In 2010, McNaught launched his own Brickman business in Melbourne and now employs a team of passionate craftspeople who have built some of the world's most detailed and challenging LEGO constructions such as life-sized cars and the tallest LEGO model in the Southern Hemisphere.
The Brickman team has gone on five global touring exhibitions and created hundreds of models for display in museums, galleries, and shopping centres.
Mostly recently, Brickman launched Jurassic World, the biggest LEGO brick exhibition in Australia with over 50 large-scale dinosaurs, props, scenes, and activities made from more than 6 million LEGO bricks
Adding to his impressive list of achievements, Ryan released Brickman's Family Challenge Book which contains "30 amazing LEGO brick challenges for all ages and abilities."
This was followed up by The Brick-tionary, the ultimate LEGO A-Z of creative builds and insider tips, and Brickman's Big Book of Better Builds which contains "all the skills you need to become a LEGO Master."
