MiniLand Orchestra Building

[Scouty]

I'm not sure if this is the right place. Anyway, it's not my thing to ask somebody to find pics for me, but there is a modle at miniland in one of the LegoLands. The modle shows an orchestra playing inside a big round whit building. I need it as a reference pic for something I'll be building soon. If anyone, if at all possible, could kindly find a pic for me, or even just a name. Just a name would help me big time. Thanks Everybody!! I appreciate it!

I think you're talking about the Hollywood Bowl. Look that up on Google and click images and check if thats the right building. Hope that helps.

[Scouty]

Thanks alot!!! I got it now. Thanks again!

Oops. I forgot about the moderation as I've always hot-linked pictures in the past and I've gotten very used to it, too used to it. :-D :-$

Hmmm, interesting. Thanks for the links.

You're very welcome, Mr. Scouts.

Wow, there are quite a few changes. Nice though.

Ah! I didn't see this before! But I do see the dear cello! Thanks. Now, I wander what the Double Bass player is doing on the ground 8-| .

Yes, It's pretty obvious there in the first picture. I hate the look of those miniland figs, but I am envious of how easy they are to build around. By far the biggest challenge in Lego building is fiting porportionate vehicals and buildings into the very dis-porportionate minifig scale. Also check out the cello in the second stage; I think I like it a bit better and it makes a brilliant use for those 1x3 arches.

If anyone wants to see some more miniland pictures including the primative WIP Las Vegas, just ask.

What??

"I'll give you TIME 'till mars."

Until the next man...lands...er, on Mars?

That's what I meant. :-$

Time enough I guess.:-)

[oo7]

I need no more time, I finally done! Now OFF WITH HIS HEAD!!

OK, one of the things I found most interesting was the usage of the 'real' foliage. Irish Moss is used for the grass and there are many different types of shrubs used for large trees! Here we have a couple workers caring for this delicate vegetation.

:-D

Here we have a Jazz Funeral that I was just compelled to capture due to the neat cemetery ;-) . Now for some trivia; who knows the story being the moss infestation in there? AND who knows why graveyards always have such large fences?

This is fountain is gushing out large torrents of water, which is pretty cool, but those three people in the inner-most doughnut are wading in knee deep water....

I was also compelled to take a photograph of this here zoo, the little birds and moneys were just too cute.....

FLYING LLAMA!!!!!

X-D One can only wonder what's happening here..............

And now, here, is our very primitive WIP Las Vegas!

(Here's DC in the background)

I was surprised to see how much work goes into creating underground foundations, they have to pour concrete, construct wooden and steel supports, set Styrofoam templates, and run wires everywhere! 8-
