Hoexbroe Posted December 31, 2010 (edited) My last MOC of the year 2010; This building was constructed in the year 1789, and is today a museum. The typical tourist photo... Note the 4-plate-wide upper windows... I did not have much information about the back side of the building, so some details might be wrong, but generally this a pretty exact reproduction. The bell tower is actually octagonal in real life, so perfect for Lego representation! Many more photos in Brickshelf http://www.brickshelf.com/cgi-bin/gallery.cgi?f=456668 Or on Flickr; http://www.flickr.com/photos/hxmiesa/sets/72157625589265127/with/5309362347/ I hope you like it. Comments welcome. and... HAPPY NEW YEAR to everybody! Edited January 2, 2011 by Hoexbroe Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Fuzzylegobricks Posted December 31, 2010 Wow I love it! especially the bell tower Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Mrlegoninja Posted December 31, 2010 I really like the bell tower, and the color scheme is nice. But I love the slanted effect on the building. It makes it look a lot like the real one. Great work! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
XimenaPaulina Posted January 1, 2011 Lovely! Great choice for the vibrant color scheme, and the overall design and details are very accurate based on the reference pics. But what makes this even a greater build is the skewed positioning of the structure on the base - very unique, accurate, and well executed. Impressive job Hoexbroe!

kost u grlu Posted January 1, 2011 I am familiar with your previous work, and I am a big fan of your ships, and this building is no exception! It is beautiful.. Roof on a bell tower is a great piece of engineering! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
buddy Posted January 2, 2011 Excellent MOC! It is very realistic. I too particularly like the sloped base and the bell tower roof. Extremely well done. ~buddy~ Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
lightningtiger Posted January 2, 2011 Beautiful, just beautiful.....the bell tower and roof are fantastic and the red/black walls just make this creation pop. Excellent work 'Hoexbroe' and keep on MOCing ! (Oh, happy new year to you too !) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
WesternOutlaw Posted January 2, 2011 Amazing! I love the colors, and the roof and bell tower are outstanding. This deserves a front-page! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Flare Posted January 2, 2011 Great work! The bright colors look great. Realistic, nice MOC. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
blueandwhite Posted January 2, 2011 This is really well done. I like that the work isn't needlessly busy but at the same time the build is quite sophisticated. The sloped path is nice but it's the skewed angle of the building that really stands out. Little details like the snot windows on the sides of the building and the general shape of the bell tower are just icing on the cake. The entire piece just comes together perfectly. I must say, there aren't many MOCs that look this polished. I hope we'll be seeing more works like this in the new year! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

fenrir Posted January 2, 2011 Very well done, I've been in Ebeltoft 2 years ago. (holiday to Denmark and visiting LEGOLAND) So it's nice to see a MOC of a building I've seen. You did an excellent job on this one. I'm just curious: I see your from Spain, so why did you do a MOC of an building in a village in Denmark? Fenrir Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Hoexbroe Posted January 2, 2011 Amazing! I love the colors, and the roof and bell tower are outstanding. This deserves a front-page! Wow... What can I say... THANKS! I'm just curious: I see your from Spain, so why did you do a MOC of an building in a village in Denmark? Thanks. I´m danish, but living in Spain now. My grandparents had a summerhouse in Ebeltoft for many years. I´ve been there (inside also) in person. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

The Player Nº1 Posted January 5, 2011 Nice building. Can you take a photo of the tree to see the construction and the details? Regards Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Hoexbroe Posted January 6, 2011 Thanks to all of you for the nice comments! Nice building. Can you take a photo of the tree to see the construction and the details? Try looking here; http://www.brickshelf.com/gallery/Hoexbroe/Ebeltoft/dsc04320r.jpg and here; http://www.brickshelf.com/gallery/Hoexbroe/Ebeltoft/dsc04326.jpg The tree was a test. Basically trying to use the method for the texturing of the lower walls of the building. It turned out to be quite piece-intensive and I dont have much brown or green stuff... Notice also the brick-build owl overseeing the area... ;-) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
