Vindicare Posted July 7, 2012 Wow, that is something! The windmill on the front is a little odd, but the building is great! The roof is fitting for a Gentlemens club such as this. I don't know if this was intentional, but the top floor looks like a drawn curtain, say on a stage. The interior is nice and well furnished. The entryway is great and the gold chains are nice touches. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
lightningtiger Posted July 7, 2012 It's radical, cool, AWESOME, etc., what a modular ! That windmill on the front is the bomb....very colourful too ! Good luck 'RoxYourBox' with this highly creative and original design......Brick On Party On ! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
alois Posted July 7, 2012 The windmill is of course very recognisable and makes it look very much like a real Parisian cabaret. Colours that match the theme of the building, and a nice interior. It certainly cathches the eye in a row of modular buildings. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Darth Hagrid Posted July 7, 2012 Wow, that's pretty amazing. (laughed at Mr. VIP, as well. ) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Redhead1982 Posted July 7, 2012 You might be disappointed, but Mr. VIP is my favorite part of the MOC. Nevertheless, it's an interesting build, somehow unique in color and architectural style to show off just how special the Black Cat Cabaret is! The rotating wind mill is an excellent touch to add to the eccentrics of the Cabaret. Well done and could luck in the contest! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
gotoAndLego Posted July 7, 2012 (edited) The windmill is of course very recognisable and makes it look very much like a real Parisian cabaret. I agree, for those unfamiliar think Moulan Rouge. You used some good techniques working the cylindrical body of the windmill into the rectangular corner of the facade. Great concept, I really like it Edited July 7, 2012 by gotoAndLego Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
soccerkid6 Posted July 7, 2012 Excellent build! The staggered red slopes on the top story look great The phone booth outside is another nice touch, and the interior works very well too Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
RoxYourBlox Posted July 7, 2012 (edited) You might be disappointed, but Mr. VIP is my favorite part of the MOC. Thank you for your honesty; I hope I didn't offend. My inspiration for this build was a game which featured a cross between Le Chat Noir and Moulin Rouge as a secret headquarters (sans windmill) for a fleet of robots piloted by five ladies who save Paris.

Vincent Kessels Posted July 7, 2012 That is a great building, really colorful! My favorite part on the upside are the windows and the white pillars / walls. On the inside my favorite detail are the red curtains next to the podium. I haven't figured out yet how you made them. My guess would be red Garage Roller Door Sections?

gotoAndLego Posted July 7, 2012 Nice technique on those door curtains. I guess this is where the Friends figs get jobs if they're rebelling against their parents. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
L@go Posted July 7, 2012 As you know, I've followed your progress on this, and I have to say the end result looks spectacular. I'm still debating whether I think the colours are nice or just crazy, but the details are wonderful. Those curtains are brilliant, and I also really like the entrance. The windmill is a very inspired addition that is sure to make this stand out from anything else (not least because it's actually working!). And the minifigs are great - especially the two assistants!

badboytje88 Posted July 8, 2012 Wow this is lovely! Could we maybe get a more close up look of the minifigures and some of the furniture inside the building? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
sonicstarlight Posted July 10, 2012 I've been ignoring this far too long. This is a great build and extremely bold with both the colors and the details, but not overly so. I really like the canopy over the entrance and those curtains are so simple but brilliantly effective. Good luck with the contest, and blogged on Brick Town Talk!

LEGO Guy Bri Posted July 10, 2012 Excellent modular RYB! Very cool color choice, it looks like a fun place to be for a show. The motorized windmill is a nice feature. Great job Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
