WIP: Modular Petshop

[t20a1h5u23]

I have been perfecting this modular pet shop in LDD for some time, and I am hoping you guys can critique it for me. I am planning on ordering the bricks soon. I am hoping you could upload the file, and see what you think. It uses LU pieces.

The file for the house is in my my Brickshelf Gallery , titled "petshop". All of the individual cages are shown in the file "cages".

I would like to know about any problems you can find in this, or any critique. It's my first modular house, so I know it won't be perfect. The bucket piece does not allow 2x3's in it, so the cat is on top of it. Thanks for looking, and any comments would be appreciated.

Two points of critic. First of all, the ground floor looks too low. The proportions don't look good. I would suggest increasing it with two or three bricks.

Secondly, I saw in one of the pictures that a Light Sword - Blade is sticking out through the side of the building. This prevents a second building on that side.

I really like it. I can't wait to see the final version.

I agree with the suggestions by Vincent. Maybe you could add steps leading up from the sidewalk into the shop?

I see what you mean. Thanks.

I forgot to mention that in the first post. I made a mock-up of the first floor with random bricks I had, and was able to fix the Blade with a piece of grey pipe I got in a bag of bricks at a yard sale. I am planning on using the new blade from the Spaceman Minifigure.

I really like it. I can't wait to see the final version.

Thanks! It might be a while, but I'll post the pictures as soon as I'm done.

I have a step into it, but it goes back down. Do you mean some thing like this shop by Tijersan?

He has a better image of the floor in his gallery.

Thanks for the comments!
