CCOOK Posted April 5, 2015 Posted April 5, 2015 (edited) This is the one off of eBay - I bought all the parts for this about 5 months ago and took my time building it: The model had a lot of instruction and design faults so buyer beware; it seems apparent from the instructions that the designer never built the model from actual LEGO bricks and plates. -CCOOK Edited April 5, 2015 by CCOOK Quote
Colossus Posted April 5, 2015 Posted April 5, 2015 Amazing house, and the landscaping complements it so well! Quote
lightningtiger Posted April 6, 2015 Posted April 6, 2015 AWESOME house ......any interior ? Brick On 'CCOOK' ! Quote
CCOOK Posted April 6, 2015 Author Posted April 6, 2015 (edited) Inside is fully furnished with all kinds of crazy stuff - the house is from instructions from "Fully Brick Models" that I bought off eBay a couple years ago. It is hard to reassemble once the roof and sexond floor are removed - I will post some older photos from during the build. -CCOOK Edited April 6, 2015 by CCOOK Quote
Legogal Posted April 6, 2015 Posted April 6, 2015 LOVELY! Thanks for the photos! Design and colors look wonderful. Landscaping is also well put together. Must have eaten up a zillion or so LEGO. Will you be able to display it at any LEGO events or is it too fragile to move? (You must not have little ones in the house by the looks of this!!!) Quote
ReplicaOfLife Posted April 6, 2015 Posted April 6, 2015 Holy. Crap. How many pieces are in this? You must've used thousands for the roof and exterior walls shingles alone. Not to mention that chimney built up entirely of 1x1 round plates. Quote
Captain Braunsfeld Posted April 6, 2015 Posted April 6, 2015 What a nice and huge building - with a fascinating garden too! Quote
Ex cinno Posted April 6, 2015 Posted April 6, 2015 Wonderfull moc with an unmistakably English style. Quote
AFOLguy1970 Posted April 6, 2015 Posted April 6, 2015 Very nice, I love Victorian houses. It would be interesting to know the total piece count for this project. Quote
notaromantic Posted April 7, 2015 Posted April 7, 2015 How are the house's siding tiles secured at that kind of an angle? They almost look like slopes, slopes attached with modified bricks studded on one side, but slopes aren't made in that length, that I've seen - right? Were the gardens your design, or were they included in the .pdf...? Trees - that's where I'm at now, I've always been intimidated by good tree builders, and now that I too am working on a Victorian project, it's building trees that are my current bane. Building organic forms with LEGO, with brick, must be one of the most difficult challenges of this medium. But I think I've gotten close to what I imagine. This build must've inspired you to try something more, of your own, to go a little further... Thanks for sharing it. Quote
ScotNick Posted April 7, 2015 Posted April 7, 2015 Wow, great! I wonder how many bricks you used? Probably more than I have in my whole collection Quote
CCOOK Posted April 7, 2015 Author Posted April 7, 2015 I heard from another guy who made this a few years back that there are over 21000 pieces in it - there are a lot of really rare expensive parts in here as well - all in all probly cost about $2500 to build - I will followup with some interior photos as everything inside is decked, carpetted, and furnished.

rob-cubed Posted April 8, 2015 Posted April 8, 2015 Lovely! The siding... cool... nice details on the awnings and gingerbread trim. Quote
ralphorlando Posted November 19, 2015 Posted November 19, 2015 I have very similar to this and the roof feel apart. Do you happen to have the instructions so I can repair it? Thanks Quote
gavralcraw Posted November 20, 2015 Posted November 20, 2015 This is a nifty design. Dig the roof. Great angles. How much more work was this with the issues with the instructions? Quote
