Mini-Modular Bank

[TheLegoDr]

I entered the Toysnbricks mini-modular contest in March (I think), but I never got around to posting it on Eurobricks. Unfortunately, I won't be able to use it for the Modular Madness contest, but that gives me an excuse to come up with another mini building that is 10x better!

I had a lot of fun building this. The mini scale is very difficult to work with at times, but then other times things just come together. It requires a lot of creativity and that is what I enjoy about it.

I hope everyone enjoys these photos and hopefully there will be more Modulars (mini and/or Full scale) to come!

First is a full frontal, er, I mean, a picture of the front facade. It has yellow flags, a mini street light, and a bench.

Next is an angled side view.

Followed by the other angled side.

Next, is the back of the building. Not as exciting as the front, but it adds some of the same architectural idea. I like my tree the most

A close-up of the front revolving door. Yes, it really revolves. It is a little difficult to get my fingers in there, but it is on two pieces that rotate.

A close-up of the front archway and the roof detail.

And finally, a shot of the whole street together!

I hope everyone enjoys the pictures. It was my first mini-modular. I purchased the official set as the contest began. I was going to buy it anyway, but I needed a better excuse to make the purchase. I will definitely build in mini scale again. Comments welcome!

Your mini-modular looks great and put together with the official ones, it fits right in. My favourite is definitely the rotating door. How did you do it? I'm guessing a turntable and trans-clear panel (1x2) or even a glass (1x2). Well done!

Excellent piece of MOCing and such a clever revolving door too.....fantastic designing 'TheLegoDr' !

Brick On !

Thanks for the positive feedback. It was my first build, but after not looking at it for almost 2 months, I can see a lot of things I would do differently. But I'm still glad I built it.

Yes, the revolving door involves a turntable on the bottom and an upside down one on the top to hold the 1x2 clear tile in place. Luckily I had the one old set it came in, otherwise I don't know what I would do. I'm pretty pleased with it.
