Doctor Sinister Posted July 9, 2007 Posted July 9, 2007 Here are some pictures of a gothic-style clock tower I built for Tabletown. IIRC, I only used pieces from set 1382: Scary Laboratory to build this. It's the first time I've ever bought a set and not built it - I only bought it for the cool minifigs. Given the nature of the pieces in that set, it was fairly straightforward to make something that looked old and almost unused - I wanted Tabletown to have at least one "historic" building instead of just skyscrapers and modern housing. My 4-year old daughter recently named this "Ghost Tower" because of the spooky inhabitant who lives in the observation deck. Red lights were added to the top of the spire for airplane navigation purposes - the historians kicked up a fuss, but it was fairly easy for the corrupt Mayor of Tabletown to liquidate them and do it anyway. Ghost Tower is situated near the Marina in Tabletown, right at the end of Edge Road (excuse the dust, my rolling program of cleaning is still ongoing!). Dr. S. Quote
Asuka Posted July 10, 2007 Posted July 10, 2007 Very nice, the colors fit very well with that overall spooky flair.... *y* Now all you need for a decent adventure Quote
zouave Posted July 10, 2007 Posted July 10, 2007 Cool. That clock is really neat. But why a haunted tower in Tabletown. X-D Quote
WesternOutlaw Posted July 10, 2007 Posted July 10, 2007 Interesting concept DS. I like the idea a lot. Love the ghost and I like how you did the hands of the clock. Simple, yet it works very well. I would not have thought of combining the levers as you did. Neat. Quote
