Finally, I have the chance to present you my biggest, most expensive, most detailed and most "workful" MOC ever! (until now! xD )

You've already had the chance to see some of the exterior photos here, but now I'm back to show you the finished version.

I won't put here more photos to not overcharge the topic, but you can see these in higher resolution and much more photos at flickr.

In case you're wondering about the name.... Do you remenber this lady here?

I couldn't "kill" her, so as Madame Tussauds, which was a little old lady and gave the name to maybe the most well known Wax Museum, I wanted to pay a tribute to my "old lady" and used her again in this creation. :)

Hope you like it!

See ya!

Woah, that is like one of the greatest buildings I've ever seen! I love the colour scheme and statues.

[lightningtiger]

AWESOME and BEAUTIFUL at the same time, and that statue......is one of the best designs I have seen in a long time.
The floor, windows, in fact everything is perfect.
You have done a fantastic job 'marcosbessa' and keep on bricking !

Amazing! Great MOC marcosbessa.

The detailing is unbelievably rich, and absolutely impeccable. The staircase especially flows so well with the entire model! Love the flooring too. A true work of art  

[Hey75]

That was great, the detail was good. Great job.

[dr_spock]

Awesome work!  Love the staircase.   Wasn't that lady used to be part of a cinema?

[KielDaMan]

Woowww... Wonderful MOC marcosbessa! Impressive masterpiece worthy for a museum Sir! The interior is just totally grand and fabulous! The staircase is definitely great, it's the first time I saw one in brickform. The color scheme inside also works for me, and I simply love every bit of detail inside, especially the tiling of the floor/staircase.

This is amazing! The detail in it is fantastic. Well done.

[Peppermint_M]

That is fantastic. The blue, the interior, the detail! That is probably going to be hard to top, so I can't wait for you next project  

[Artifex]

Awesome, brilliant, amazing work!

I was going to say that I love the stairs, but the MOC as a whole is fantastic and I love it all!

I saw a picture of your MOC in the Portuguese event, but I couldn't see the whole of it. Now that I did, it is even more impressive than it seemed at first!

Great MOC, man - keep on bricking!

[Rick]

What a great building. Both the exterior and the interior look amazing. The real eye-catcher are the stairs of course. Brilliant!

[eiker86]

This was an magnificent building =) Just love it =D

[BlueBard]

Wonderful job, really!   One of the best, colorful and better-conceived interiors I've ever seen   BRAVO!

[marcosbessa]

Thank you, guys! :D

It will be definitely difficult for me to beat this MOC in a future work, especially in the size of it! But I'll continue the hardwork in order to always create something different and better then whatever I had done before! ;)

Once again, thank you all!

[TheBrickster]

This is amazing work M!  I've always been a fan of huge mansions from my early LEGO childhood; unfortunately, I've never had enough pieces to build one.  You've done a fantastic job at creating interior details that are as equally impressive to the outside.  Great colors and nice tiling, I even love the wax figures that you've selected (like Frankenstein - a perfect movie monster).  

Well deserving of a Classic Town blog as well as an EB front-page!

Beautiful!

[R5-N2]

Bravo...

Hi Marcosbessa,

The exterior is amazing and the columns and the interior are fantastic!  
If I counted correctly the baseplate of the MOC is 64x96 studs which is huge...    
Are you planning to use the MOC in a city or square and are you planning to expand the MOC with a roof and backside?
Kind regards,

Teddy

[alexhui]

amazing stair and color matching, best LEGO stair I have ever seen.
It's very good MOC model.

[Tycho McKorley]

This is some stellar work.  I think the columns on the facade of the building are exceptionally well done and, as such, I might just have to steal you idea in the future.

And again, thank you so much! Thanks for the frontpage too, TheBrickster!

Hey Teddy! ;) This MOC was already used in a city - our city display at Arte Em Peças LEGO Fan Event. But obviously it was a community work... not "my" city! And actually I don't know when I'll be able to have my own city display... I simply don't have enough parts to keep all the projects assembled. This one will keep assembled for a long time I believe... But for now its finished, although it has all the potential to grow to the sides, or to the back.... Who knows what I might do with it in the future! ;)

[Captain Becker]

I love those stairs inside    Woderful job mate

This is a truly amazing MOC! All the walls are tiled (if I see correctly) and the windows details are just stunning! Can you provide some more pictures of the windows?

[FixBayonets!]

Wow, this is amazing! Great job!  

[Erdbeereis]

Unbelievable.

I love the staircase, easily the best LEGO staircase I've ever seen. The combination of the dark blue and gray is very nice, I especially like the gray 1x1s inserted into the arches at the front.

Awesome work Marcos!
