alois Posted November 22, 2010 Posted November 22, 2010 (edited) Hello, I'm new to this forum, and getting into Lego again after 20 years. I'd like to show my first attempt at building a modular house: I built it to resemble the house of the mayor of an old Dutch or Belgian Town, built around 1800. Roof and second floor can be lifted, but there's no interior as for yet, nor surroundings. Details of the neoclassical facade: . The backside is a bit plainer than the face, for obvious reasons: . To built it, I mainly used parts from set 4954 (easily recognisable, see the little burgundy bricks under the windows) and a lot of other loose parts. More images here.

prateek Posted November 22, 2010 Posted November 22, 2010 Very cool! As you said, it looks a lot like the Town Home from the Creator series, but it's a million times better with all the small details :thumbup: Quote
Mrlegoninja Posted November 22, 2010 Posted November 22, 2010 (edited) This is really good for a first MOC! I just love all the modular buildings I have been seeing. Great job, and welcome to Eurobricks! Edit: 800th post! Edited November 22, 2010 by Mrlegoninja Quote
XimenaPaulina Posted November 23, 2010 Posted November 23, 2010 Wow, this is a great first attempt at building a modular house, really very impressive! I actually like the right amount of details you put in the exterior design, not lacking yet not too much either, just right smack in the middle. Very well-done alois! Quote
buddy Posted November 23, 2010 Posted November 23, 2010 Great MOC, I particularly like all of small details. Very well done. ~buddy~ Quote
peterab Posted November 24, 2010 Posted November 24, 2010 I really like this, but I think you should tile the stud at the top of the facade. I don't have anything against studs as detailing but in this case you have too many different forms of detail and I think tiles would tie in better with the stone work on the edge of the walls and the overall neo-classic look. Still a very good use of the tan town house pieces. Quote

Cancerkitty Posted November 24, 2010 Posted November 24, 2010 Holy cats, this is your first MOC? Very impressive! Quote
peterab Posted November 24, 2010 Posted November 24, 2010 I ran out of tiles.... The limitations of just getting back into Lego :-) Although the more I buy the bigger my ideas seem to get. Quote
