More Updated Pictures on the Next page

After finishing my Winter Train Station I decided to build a Post office .


The Main Building




Close up of the Post Office


Here we have our friendly little Citizen posting a letter to Santa (our story begins )


The back of the Building


The Front Desk


A lovely fire place (There wont be a light brick in the fire, I'll be using one as a light instead)


With the Winter train station


With the Winter Toy Shop


The back of the buildings


C & C Welcome

(Updates will be coming soon)

Very nice, I like and am confused by the fire place inside the post office.  The desk area looks really good.

Overall though, the design is great and it looks like a cute post office.

Well I'm sure the woman will get very cold without a fire place and I've just noticed Big Cam, you've made 85 posts today

Hello!

The scene looks beautiful. Soon this time of the year is coming with the snow.

I have one minor suggestion. The top of the letterbox could need a white 1x2 snow plate as well.

Cheers,

Absolutely fantastic post office The Red Brick!

[BlueBard]

Great one!   You perfectly caught the christmas feeling with this one  

[KyleJohnson11]

Red Brick - I love the Winter Post Office. It looks great with your Winter Train Station and the Winter Toy Shop. Looks like all you need now is the Winter Bakery and a MOC Winter City Hall.

[prateek]

Awesome! It looks great beside your other building. Do you have the official winter sets? If so, post a picture with all the winter buildings you have!

Love it, but I think you need to give the inside an actual floor instead of just using the white baseplate. I'm not syaing you need to get all snotty with tiles, but maybe a layer of brown, or whatever color you choose, plates would add a lot. Something akin to what Commander Laquiet did with his King's Grocer.

Can you see the future, because I have just put some Dark brown tiles

That's a completely amazing Winter MOC, The Red Brick!

I really   it!

It looks very realistic and there are a lot of small and lovely details included!
I personally like this your Winter MOC even much more than the Winter Train Station you built because your Winter Post Office looks much more official and much less "MOCish".
The only thing I miss in its interior is a frame with letters and packets.
Otherwise it's perfect!

Very, very well done!   

Btw: It would be great to see a Winter Candy Shop next.

Thank you Klaus, At the moment I am working on the interior by adding a nice dark brown floor and taking out those dark red arches.
I'll take some updated photos today with it next to theWinter Bakery, Which I have just gotten today

[Mrlegoninja]

Thanks Mrlegoninja. I'm going to make whatever has the most votes on the poll, when I've completed this Post office. So I could end up making a café

[Fires-storm]

Nicely done on this, it looks perfect next to the other Lego buildings! I can just envision a village of buildings like these under the Christmas tree with a nice holiday train....a beautiful sight! Well done, and I can't wait to see more!
