Woofi Posted August 14, 2016 (edited) Hey all, Here is my first attempt at a modular MOC. It is designed to be a ski shop which I am still working on. Would appreciate people;s thoughts so far and suggestions. Edited August 14, 2016 by Woofi Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
SFmuscle73 Posted August 14, 2016 I like it. I would consider having the awning be a color that contrasts like a dark green. Most modulars awnings are a different color scheme to pop. Take alook at the past offical LEGO modulars. Nice Job! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Still Raindrop Posted August 14, 2016 (edited) Very nice--it captures the same feel of some of the ski stores I've seen in Breckenridge. I particularly like the way you did the door/entryway. Edited August 14, 2016 by Tea Weevil Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Woofi Posted August 15, 2016 Thanks for the feedback so far. I have bought some different colours for the awning so will give them a try when I get them. Also still waiting on some more plates from bricklink before I do the next level. Then at the end I will do the interior. Been buying the different types of skis, snowboards, hats and bars for items to put in the store. I can honestly say building my collection through this process hasn't been cheap, but hopefully at the end I will have enough parts for a wide range of modular MOC'S.

BricksMcgee Posted August 15, 2016 Colours work really well - the dark red is one of my favourites! Definitely worth trying that suggestion for the dark green awning. Brick on! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Dakar A Posted August 18, 2016 This is really solid for a first attempt at a modular MOC ( you should have seen mine! ). One suggestion I have is obfuscating the 'ski' somehow. I understand the struggle in not having enough dark grey tiles, but in the other two examples of writing on the sidewalk of a modular, they are covered up by cafe seating. As it stands, the text takes away from the building by ruining the immersion. Personally, I'd recommend turning the tiling into a sign and possibly doing some sort of simple pattern on the sidewalk instead. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
