Front View of the Shop, I started trying to determine whether to go dark green or dark blue. After figuring out I didn't have enough of either to do the moc justice I switched to the regular blue. Then there was the matter of figuring out how to advertise, so how about a coffin just outside the door?

First Floor, with work shop, stone slab for those no longer with us, some suspicious flasks, and coffin storage.

Mortician Hard at Work, building a coffin bigger than your work bench isn't easy, but this guy somehow manages it with his trusty array of tools.

The Dearly Departed, at last a good use for those fleshies.

Second Floor, modestly furnished with sea chest, bed, dinner table, and a few crates of supplies.

The cast as always.

Excellent work Waterbrick Down.

Great facade of the building, love the advertisement and a great display inside.
And, as said, a nice way to incorporate fleshies. :pir_laugh2:

You've done a great work on that MOC, Waterbrick, and it has really turned out lovely - especially the coffin itself. The only thing I'm not too sure about is the overly joyous/vibrant blue colour which doesn't really correspond with my idea of the morgue being a grim place - but at the end of the day, why follow all the stereotypes anyway! :pir_laugh2:

Nice entry, Waterbrick Down. :thumbup:

I really like the inside of your building, with all that interior and of course that coffin.
Your building would look better if it had some windows upstairs.

Nice work. Great coffin and I like the morticians tools like his saw.

Though I wonder- what is he using for nails!? I have seen people use the black inner portion of the little antennas as nails.

I hope I don't see all the flesh coloured minifigs as dead people now :pir_laugh2:

Great MOC. I like the windows and the interior is also nice with all the items and furniture.
Your coffin design is also good and easy to make.
Good luck in the contest, this is one of the better entries for sure.

A beauty of a MOC I love all the detail you've added, and how the interior turned out with all its wonderful details. Nice work, and good luck in the contest! :thumbup:

I know I really wanted to go dark blue or dark green, but I haven't taken the time to start using bricklink.

Windows are always one of my hardest things to add due to a limited window part selection, but the oil lamp upstairs should help the dear mortician.

Nails! Will do next time thanks for the reminder.

The trick is hiding the fleshie's face, but pale corpses are usually not in active positions. The coffin was one of the first designs I worked on and I really liked how they turned out.

This is really eye catching, i like the colour scheme, the blue goes ell with the tan window frames. The interior is nicely done and the coffin looks great! Nice One!
