AJW Posted April 17, 2012 B-T-03D Another model of a London Underground tube station. This time it's Osterley station on the Piccadilly line in West London. Station designed by Stanley Heaps and opened in 1934: Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
lightningtiger Posted April 18, 2012 This is beautiful and AWESOME at the same time 'AJW', but the brown doors and curved windows are from where ? I've asked in the past, but please say you try for a Woolworth store next ? Keep them coming 'AJW' ! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
prateek Posted April 18, 2012 (edited) I'm familiar with your other stations, and I've got to say this is up there amongst the best in terms of architectural design! Great job Edited April 18, 2012 by prateek Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

L@go Posted April 18, 2012 Your creations are not for the purists as they involve modifying and painting, but my oh my does the end result look great :) I love the brickwork and the custom stickers. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
The Blue Brick Posted April 18, 2012 Yes as others have said, the end result is fantastic. The brickwork, custom stickers, and design is great. Also, how exactly did you make that curved window? Blue Brick Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Pandora Posted April 18, 2012 I always enjoy seeing the tube stations you transform into LEGO, and while this is maybe a little smaller than some of your previous builds, it is of the same very high standard. It really (like the others) reflects the architectural style of stations built in that era, and I especially like the curved wall of the waiting room. Really, really nicely done.

The Joker1 Posted April 18, 2012 Wow great work I love the LEGO brickwork. But that curved window is new to me where did you get it? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
LEGO Train 12 Volts Posted April 18, 2012 The bricks effect is awesome! Superb work! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
AJW Posted April 18, 2012 Thanks guys and gals for your kind words. I know it's a bit controversial painting and modifying parts, but what can you do if the parts you need to recreate a building don't exist? Well you have to improvise! @Blue Brick - I regret to report that the curved window is a mangled part. It's one of these with the top cut off and some blue stickers applied to make a window frame: http://www.bricklink.com/catalogItem.asp?P=6059 (Image from Bricklink) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
The Blue Brick Posted April 18, 2012 That curved window is genius. I never would have thought of that. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Redhead1982 Posted April 21, 2012 Nevertheless, you modified some bricks to give this creation an extremely elegant look. It's an amazing creation, and when you're able to modify bricks to make them look like they're commonly produced, it's worth it (I'd probably ruined them). Also, the custum stickers give a great effect. Well done! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
