ftop Posted February 3, 2015 Posted February 3, 2015 (edited) Hi, This is my first moc I deem right to publish. Due to space constrictions, I keep it all in the digital world now. The building is based on the building 'De Gekroonde Hoofden' in my home town Ghent in Belgium. The name means 'crowned heads' and the figures are a series of counts of Flanders. It is a corner building, such as IRL and I have tried to remain as close to the original as LEGO parts allowed. At this moment the building has not been furnished yet, but that may change in the future. Enjoy And here is the real thing: Edited February 3, 2015 by ftop Quote
lightningtiger Posted February 3, 2015 Posted February 3, 2015 Very digital copy of that building 'ftop'........Brick On LDD On ! Quote
timmyc1983 Posted February 3, 2015 Posted February 3, 2015 This is a wonderful modular, you captured the original facade with great affect! The two buildings on its left would be fun to see in LEGO too!! I hope to see this in real bricks one day.... Happy building Quote
ftop Posted February 3, 2015 Author Posted February 3, 2015 Well, timmyc, that was a great idea. I gave it a first shot, but it was kinda hard to get the dimensions right. Enjoy, And here we have the two of them side by side. I could not get them to connect together though... Quote
ReplicaOfLife Posted February 3, 2015 Posted February 3, 2015 Very nice representation of the building! Would be cool to see it in real bricks :) As for your first try on the neighboring buildings, I have a suggestion: Try making them just 24 wide. I see you went for a 32 wide, which makes them too broad for their height, at least as long as you try to keep them in scale with the corner building. Looking at the real pic, it seems like they are just about as wide as the corner building. Quote
kibosh Posted February 4, 2015 Posted February 4, 2015 That is an exceptionally good job at faithfully recreating the original building. It's perfect. Quote
Captain Braunsfeld Posted February 4, 2015 Posted February 4, 2015 Great creations - would also look good in real bricks. Those houses in Ghent are lovely anyway. Brick on! Quote
coghilla Posted February 5, 2015 Posted February 5, 2015 Great work on recreating those real buildings. Hope you get to build them. Quote
