Creator houses as city houses

[SalvoBrick]

Who said the city theme today is only fire and police sets?

Of course civilian building are not in the "city" theme, but in the "creator" one, but only with minor modifications you can build a whole town only using the lates building: there are shops, building and houses. Recently I bought on discount some of the latest houses: two "beach cabin" sets and a "four seasons" one. In my opinion the "beach cabin" is the best, for a small price you can build a cute house. With small mods, using only the pieces you find in the set you can turn all the buildings in cute houses you can use for your town.

I wanted to show my idea before tearing all them down and re-use the bricks for my personal MOCs

Hope you liked :)

I use several Creator houses in my town. The town centre is made up of modular with a couple of MOCs. The suburb is mostly Creator houses. There's slight scale issues with some of them but if you don't put them directly side by side then it's OK.

I personally like Creator houses better than modular buildings as housing for minifigs, precisely because they are much more in scale with most City buildings. The size difference just bugs me. So I hope the Creator houses will be many and close between (and interesting, but they usually are).

The mods are great, and today's CREATOR houses is definitely scaled with the CITY buildings nowadays. Even the commercial buildings like the 31026 Bike Shop and the 31036 Toy Shop are like the CITY buildings now.

IMO it's too bad because CREATOR houses used to be the suburban equivalent of the big $150 modular sets. And now the new $160-170 modular sets seem to be about 3/4ths the size of the old modulars like the Green Grocer and Grand Emporium. Oh well.
