bjorkan Posted May 6, 2014 There is a short story behind this “Emergency Radiology” (ER) MOC set and only AFOLs can understand me truly My son (Marko) today passed radiology residency program exam and I wanted to give him some special present. Only two months earlier I was scrolling over Eurobricks pages and found some model with MD minifigure, and the idea was borne. The ER model was created over some weeks (basic setup is close to one in the hospital where I am working), then some missing white peaces ordered through Bricklink (by the way, some were too late due to bad weather at one northern European town shop and that is the reason why ER has some very old white, almost gray peaces), and MOC was finalized. To be as close to original Lego sets, I photographed step by stem modeling apart and prepared PDF book of photos as building instruction on memory stick (I know that some digital designer would be better but I am quite fresh in that software). Next, all parts were packed in four plastic bags with numbers, put into paper box and ER “cover page” was designed to remind original Lego set boxes (set number 06052014 is in fact today’s date). And that’s it – ER is still in peaces in original box, but while waiting to be opened I must share the story :) m. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Poisso3 Posted May 6, 2014 As the son of a Radiologist, I applaud you! That is a great MOC of a Radiology Department. My only suggestion would have been to give the nurse some protection too. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Yooha Posted May 7, 2014 The armor as lead vest is hilarious! One suggestion for improvement if it is not too late: change the x-ray picture of the real skull into a minfighead-shaped skull. Something like this. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
