Ezechielle Posted April 15, 2012 B-V-17E The first of a serie of vignettes I'll build about old forgotten jobs Here, a coal delivery man around the 30's. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
prateek Posted April 15, 2012 Quite nice! The window trimmings are nice, as well as the brown/dark red brick patterning. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

MadManMingo Posted April 16, 2012 Very nice vignette!!! And a cool little niche with the forgotten jobs. With a little modification, this building could easily become a fantastic modular building. It's been done before, but I really like the use of minifig legs, for curvy detailing Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
mrlegoman Posted April 16, 2012 Very clever with use of legs! Good work.... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
daisy Posted April 16, 2012 Very nice, really like the brickwork. My great grandfather was a coalman. My grandmother often told me about his work. This is lovely. Love the idea of forgotten jobs. Looking forward to seeing more. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
pinioncorp Posted April 17, 2012 Very nice little vig. The building detail is great, interspersing the dark red with brown is commendable, as dark red as a colour is a bit too intense for architectural use on it's own. The curvature above the second floor window is great, rarely do you see legs used facing outwards. The cheese above the curved bricks on the upper floor is attention to detail too. What is missing I think, would be a little handcart for the coal. I don't think they had piles on the street like that. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Dakar A Posted April 17, 2012 Nice! Great reminders of a time gone by. Do a milkman next! OR a theatre with a nickelodeon! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Mr Copperhead Posted April 17, 2012 That is really cool. Brings back memories of the house I grew up in with it's coal room and chute in the basement. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Ezechielle Posted April 17, 2012 Wow! Thanks everyone for the kind comments! Very nice little vig. The building detail is great, interspersing the dark red with brown is commendable, as dark red as a colour is a bit too intense for architectural use on it's own.

What is missing I think, would be a little handcart for the coal. I don't think they had piles on the street like that. I really appreciate your detailed post About the coal pile on the street, as I wanted a vignette (and thus a very small surface to build), I choose to represent the delivery in that way, knowing that in was quite unusual ; but I thought it would make the scene clearer Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
The Joker1 Posted April 17, 2012 Great work. You have made a nice use of simple peices. Well done. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
