Coinciding with my last BL order and the University Exams period (aka non-building season ) I've decided to continue with my never-ending City Display around the net. I know, it has been a year since I started but it's taking me much more time than expected and every time I finish a little corner I watch the whole display and I think: "well, a little BL order and I could push on a bit more the street there" I'm pretty sure you, Lego city Lovers would understand me. (BTW, thanks to the admins for that sweet City Boy new tag ) But now I've finally what I call the Ultimate Project and I only have one more structure to finish it so I can assure this time is for real: it's coming soon!
That's why I've decided to re-take good shots of those final designs modified again and again during the last year and start a new topic to show in all them. Some are new versions of buildings that plenty of you would already know but there are also new ones long expected . During the next months I'll post them in this order: R&W Bar, Al's & Garage (formerly known as warehouse), Comic Store,Tan Appartment, Y&B Appartment, Central Backyard, Flower Shop, Green Cafe Corner and last but not least... surprise!

So, let's begin with the first one, the ultimate version of the Red&White Bar:





Hope the old members would appreciate it and the new ones like it! Comments are welcome!

All the pics can be seen at my new flickr gallery and (more) at my old Brickshelf one.

Great building!
I love the guy spraying graffiti on the side, the cop standing next to it makes me think a bit of the intro movie from the Fresh Prince of Bel Air.

Yay! Congratulations, BB! I'm very happy for you :] Are you displaying your entire layout somewhere soon?

[lightningtiger]

'BlueBard' you've done it again.
FANASTIC bar and bathroom among others !
Perfect somewhere for a drink and then after the drink, even minfigs need to.
Love the detail you put in all your designs.
The phone and video game machine in the bar - sweet !!!!
The pretty tropical prints on the bathroom walls - also sweet !!!
Keep up the great work, 'Bluebard' !

This is a really great design... but I've said that before... looking forward to more 'final versions'.

Another great house BlueBard!
I like all your great things you put in your mocs.
Like in this one the Arcadegame, the graffiti guy (is it CGH?)and the railing to put your feets on under the bar to mention a few.
In the other rooms I would just try to make it less "study", but that is just my taste to go SNOT.

That's a totally awesome MOC, bluebrick!

I really it!

The interior as well as the exterior look absolutely realistic and are full of stunning details!

Very, very well done!

I'm also a fan and I would do SNOT interiors if I could but it's a really large layout and I don't have bricks enough

Fantastic job! I can't wait to see the rest of the town.

I love the phone in the bar. The time bugs me though... If it's 10:21pm in the bar, then the kid outside is up way past his bedtime. If it's 10:21am, those people are drinking a bit early...

12:01 is another option with that tile. Afternoon is fine for drinks, right?

[Milan]

That is great. bluebrick! I mean BlueBard
Awesome building, as always!
I love the pavement, so clean!
That clock is really a mystery!

[Zorbas]

Another excellent creation BlueBard!

The colours on the exterior are fantastic. As for the interior, what can I say?
You are truely a master at designing not just the interiors which are always great, but also the activities taking place in them!
You sure know how to give life to ABS!

Really, your creations are BB* style rather than CC style! They all have that great characteristic look and that's great!



*BlueBard that is, not Brickbeard's Bounty...




Great work as usual and I can't wait to see all these buildings together in a display!

[prateek]

Excellent job BB. I can't wait to see the whole layout

[BlueBard]

Thanks for your nice comments! I never thought that a new version of an old MOC could have so nice comments

Then I suppose the kid outside is a bad boy... Anyway he's with his mother so I suppose it's ok

Efficient street cleaners.

Love the Building! You have good color balance using the canopies throughout. It's the kind of place i'd wanna be! The interior is my favorite (not one of my strengths thus I admire those who put the fine touches on their MOCs). The graffiti is a scene stealer (nice)!
