SavaTheAggie Posted June 29, 2015 Posted June 29, 2015 Texas Brick Railroad has a series of MOCs that were originally built as background filler - which we named "Old MocFiller's Farm". But it's proven to be much better than expected, and we're currently working to expand it and improve it. So as part of that effort, I began work on "Old MocFiller's Storehouse", a run down, dilapidated building with a loading dock on one of our first dedicated rail spurs. It's still a work in progress, but it's mostly done. I'm quite pleased with how it turned out.

Feuer Zug Posted June 29, 2015 Posted June 29, 2015 Nice work with the building. I like how you've got it at an angle to the baseplate to line up with the rail spur. The detail work fits a delayed maintenance facility to a T. Quote
eurotrash Posted June 29, 2015 Posted June 29, 2015 Good MOC. It's these details that really set the displays apart. Quote
AirborneAFOL Posted June 29, 2015 Posted June 29, 2015 Fantastic use of color - a very "worn and abandoned" yet not quite dilapidated feel to it. Bravo. Quote
SavaTheAggie Posted June 30, 2015 Author Posted June 30, 2015 Thanks all, I appreciate it. It was fun to not work off a prototype for once. --Tony Quote
pirzyk Posted June 30, 2015 Posted June 30, 2015 Very nice! Any more pics? Like the back side? Is the inside detailed too? Quote
LEGO Train 12 Volts Posted June 30, 2015 Posted June 30, 2015 Just one word: AWESOME!!! :wub: I love this kind of stuff and I think that this MOC is perfectly made! The rusty roof looks absolutely beautiful! Quote
M_slug357 Posted June 30, 2015 Posted June 30, 2015 For a scene inside, maybe a little hobo campfire? Needs a hole in the roof for ventilation. Quote
zephyr1934 Posted July 1, 2015 Posted July 1, 2015 That is a great little MOC, things like this really add so much detail to a layout. Quote
UrbanErwin Posted July 1, 2015 Posted July 1, 2015 That is looking great, little things like this make a layout come to live Quote
Man with a hat Posted July 15, 2015 Posted July 15, 2015 Wow! A bit late to the party, but this is phenomenal again. A realy amazing realistic look with all those details and the right colours at the right place Quote
SavaTheAggie Posted July 15, 2015 Author Posted July 15, 2015 Thank you all. My build table has been a mess, so I haven't had a chance to take any better photos of it. No, it doesn't have an interior, though it does have a floor. The roof is a little fragile, so I'm not sure an interior would be all that accessible anyway. --Tony Quote
ecmo47 Posted July 15, 2015 Posted July 15, 2015 Looks great. The top really captures the feel of a tin roofed - rusted! (Yes, a nod to the B-52's). Maybe it 's the new Love Shack! By the way, does your club modify all of your switches to take out the extra curve? Quote
