slovakiasteph Posted January 18, 2013 Posted January 18, 2013 Many of the winter village buildings remind me of Frankenmuth, Michigan, USA. Home of Bronners Christmas Wonderland, a Christmas store open 364 days a year, Frankenmuth was settled by German Immigrants and has a Bavarian feel. They hold an Oktoberfest every year, as well as a SnowFest, and visiting that with my family a few years ago inspired this build. The winter fesitval is held in the town square, outside the cheese haus. We find a welcome entrance, snow-built sleigh sculpture, a hot chocolate seller, two snow/ice seats, and an ice sculpture of a castle. The inside of the cheese haus has a shop downstairs and a living area upstairs. The cheese store has a refrigerated case of cheese wedges (even blue cheese!), a wheel of white cheddar on the counter, and another cheese case. Here's a link to my brickshelf folder: http://www.brickshel...ry.cgi?f=520907 Thanks for reading! Quote

daisy Posted January 18, 2013 Posted January 18, 2013 Very sweet. I like the snow/ice sculptures and cheese display. I married into a German/Midwestern family. This is right on for the area. Quote
Priovit70 Posted January 19, 2013 Posted January 19, 2013 The cheese haus has surely a Bavarian look. Great job with the ice and snow sculptures! can't help quoting lightningtiger: good luck in the contest and brick on in the snow! Quote
LEGO Train 12 Volts Posted January 19, 2013 Posted January 19, 2013 So many transparent pieces ...this MOC is just lovely! The inner details of the shop are great! Quote
Redhead1982 Posted January 19, 2013 Posted January 19, 2013 I'm not a cheese fan, but I like your entry. My favourite details are the ice sculptures. Quote
soundwave_sw Posted January 19, 2013 Posted January 19, 2013 It looks a little cheesey to me. nice work! Quote
Kristel Posted January 20, 2013 Posted January 20, 2013 There are some unique and very creative details in this set, like the ice sculpture and the way that you have done the balcony on the first floor. I do want to give all your minifigures some gloves, though, as it looks really cold outside! Quote
Phoxtane Posted January 20, 2013 Posted January 20, 2013 Das ist ein schön Käse Haus! Nice work with the cheese slopes to make cheeses on display! There really isn't a better part to use for that, is there? Quote
