Mansard Mansion (An LDD Modular Building MOC)

[Murdoch17]

I thought about doing my own modular building around early March - late Febuary. I saw other modular buildings being constructed using the Haunted House (set #10228) as a basis, so that's where I went to start. This building is buildable in real life, and has an included LXF file later in this post.

This modular building was designed with the Haunted House in mind. It features three floors, and a spiral staircase. (stolen from the official Apartment house!) The building comes with a 1920's automobile and two minifigs.

The rear of the house. Originally I wanted to fence it in, but later realised it wouldn't work with the space provided.

First floor features a fireplace, wine storage, couch, record player, Green Grocer-style radiator, & early 1900's-type stove.

Second floor features grand father clock & another steam radiator. The bed frame and large cabinet are from the Haunted House. (set #10228)

The top floor features a pool table and pool stick holder / lamp. NOTE: the pool table-top is supposed to be dark green, but when I took this picture I forgot to change it.

Here is the very wealthy couple who own Mansard Mansion & a state-of-the-art 1928 Ford Model A (In the Deluxe Tudor body style). He made his fortune by playing the Stock Market, and judging by his smile, I'd say he did pretty well for today!

LXF file for the house, car and people:

Oh, and just for refferance, here is the 1931 Model A Deluxe Tudor I based mine on: (image from Wikipedia)

Pretty close huh?

I love it! I would make this if I had instructions!

[Murdoch17]

You can get instructions from LEGO Digital Designer by using the instructions tab in the program (or the "export HTML" button, if you want to save them as a printable document). Also, you can get a complete parts list by using another program called LDD Manager. (link: http://www.eurobrick...showtopic=41993 ) NOTE: There are some glitches with LDD manager. There are some errors that say that some parts (mainly ones with decorations) don't exist, when in fact they do. Every other part checks out, and is able to be bought from Bricklink at some store or another.

Hope this helps!

Great build! And I like the Ford A! Yours seem to have a window too much, though... ;)

Nice work! As said before, Haunted House truly is inspiring. Just watching all these amazing MOCs based on it, I might get myself another set to work on. Well done!

It's a Stretch.
