paupadros Posted July 9, 2016 Hey it's me, Pau Padrós, you may know me from my Ideas account: https://ideas.lego.c...padros/activity Anyway, I'd like you to be completely honest with what you think. Please don't hesitate to comment. Italian Villa The follow-up to the very successful modular Magic Shop. Designed from January 2016 to February 2016, it resembles a stand-alone villa which was adapted as a townhouse to the ever-expanding city of Paunia. Welcome everyone to the Italian Villa! This is my second modular after Magic Shop (also on Eurobricks: http://www.eurobricks.com/forum/index.php?showtopic=133706&hl=). Facts: 2148 bricks 30.5 cm tall (about 12") Flame Yellowish Orange clour scheme Nice vegetation on the side wall Beautiful open area on the top Minifigues & Interior Highlights: All five minifigures with a rather nice street sign, grandfather clock and modern painting You know how I am, suggest new ideas, and of course feel free to write anything you like/dislike about this modular! Thanks for reading! I really appreciate it! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
ConBrickFan Posted July 10, 2016 This is a very good modular! I especially like the architectural detailing on the roof and balcony etc. I'm not a fan of the wall colour, but it seems to fit with the Italian theme that you are going for. If this project is on Lego Ideas, I will definitely support it. Keep up the good work! Connor Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
BrickCurve Posted July 11, 2016 (edited) Nice one! Adding some more texture to the walls would, really help improve it I think. Apart from that, everything's excellently. I wish TLG made modular buildings like this. Edited July 11, 2016 by BrickCurve Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Severus A Posted July 11, 2016 Beautiful building. The terrace on the roof looks great. In my oppinion you should add more decorative plants on the terrace. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
paupadros Posted July 11, 2016 Beautiful building. The terrace on the roof looks great. In my oppinion you should add more decorative plants on the terrace. They're there, but hidden in the image, well, whatever. This is a very good modular!

If this project is on Lego Ideas, I will definitely support it. Keep up the good work! Connor The wall colour was extremely tough to choose. I had the lightest shade of yellow (pretty sure it's called Cool Yellow) but after two months of undecisiveness, I changed it. I may change it to tan just to try it. And it is on Lego Ideas!

Kodan Black Posted July 11, 2016 I like it, very stylish and has some nice elements like the flowers up the side. I don't mind the color and I would imagine that the parts are available in different colors so you could likely build this in tan or white, etc if the person wanted to.

It could be like Green Grocer, which people build it in many different colours and it still looks gorgeous! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
