dede_la_fee Posted November 1, 2011 Posted November 1, 2011 Hi all, I've been working on a modular pharmacy for a while now. I admit it, I shamelessly copied from the Green Grocer, and for the design of the pharmacy itself, I copied from Domino39's great creation ("Render unto Caesar the things which are Caesar's; and unto God the things that are God's..." ) See the pictures on Flickr I had a little fun with the medical clinic part: I put two of my favorite TV doctors' minifig alter egos, Drs House and Cuddy . I hope you will like it! Quote
Mr Benn Posted November 1, 2011 Posted November 1, 2011 Looks great Dede... And I'm sure that you will remember that imitation is the sincerest form of flattery - I find that it's looking at the Lego official sets and then looking at other people's creations that enables me to be able to build my own original design - all artists and designers have been copying each other since art began, it's how things evolve! And if you're going to copy, you might as well copy from the best... really like the design of this building, especially the ground floor and roof ... any change of seeing it in a street along with a few other modulars?

Thanks Mr Benn, actually, since I started my modular town recently, I don't have enough experience with advanced building techniques to create some totally on my own, so I made a list with all the buildings I want to do, and a few drawings, I bought all the modulars save Cafe Corner and Market Street, though I managed to build similar-looking buildings. any change of seeing it in a street along with a few other modulars? I hope to do so. I'll be working on my bakery next, and my Mate and I will start the Train Station : let's say that I take care of lodging and services, and he manages transportations and industry, but since I'm the more experienced with the building, I'll decide on the design of the train station. We plan: - a pub - a bank - a post office - a town hall - a church - at least one school - a hospital - a baker's - a market place with fish counter's, florist, a rotisserie, and fruit and veggies seller - a park - a bookstore - a couple of restaurant (chinese and italian) - a hairdressing salon - an ice-cream parlor - a newspaper stand and a residential area, etc... Lots of work in the offing!!! Quote
L@go Posted November 1, 2011 Posted November 1, 2011 Nice pharmacy! I like the colour combination, white and dark green work very well together. Your mailbox solution is clever, the big dark green windows on the first floor look good, and you've done a good job on the interior - the only things I'm not too sure about are the contents of the shelves on the ground floor. It looks a bit too much like a gift shop to me - in my experience, the shelves of pharmacies are normally stacked full, not filled with exhibited items... You could also work a bit more on your photos - a few of them are so blurry that it's hard to see what's in them. Just try harder - snap four pictures of each item instead of one (the benefits of digital photography), and you're more or less bound to get one that's usable :) That said, most of the pics are fine, and you should consider deeplinking a couple of them. That makes your post much more appealing to readers! We plan: - a pub - a bank - a post office - a town hall - a church - at least one school - a hospital - a baker's - a market place with fish counter's, florist, a rotisserie, and fruit and veggies seller - a park - a bookstore - a couple of restaurant (chinese and italian) - a hairdressing salon - an ice-cream parlor - a newspaper stand and a residential area, etc... Wow, that's quite a list. Looking forward to your upcoming creations! Quote
