Fuppylodders Posted February 11, 2014 Posted February 11, 2014 (edited) Hi guys, this is my first non Star Wars moc, and to be honest, I think only about my 4th unique MoC altogether! Anyways, I've managed to get my mum into the CMF's and she gets them without me pushing her to or anything, she loves all their individuality and often the suited minifigs like the chicken, bumble bee, rabbit etc. Well, I struggled to figure out what to get her for Christmas as I usually get her something and it often didn't get used or whatever... Im sure you know how it is! Each year it got more and more difficult. Then I had an idea! I knew one of her favourite CMFs was the gingerbread man so I figured, I'd design her a house to go with it that she would have to build! So, after spending about a month or so designing it on LDD, I started ordering the parts, packed them tightly in a small box and subsequently wrapped it up, and gave it to her on Christmas day. She only saw a box of random lego bits! So I showed her the printed instructions from LDD I had done (Stupid LDD instructional priorities!) She seemed quite happy with it, but everyone knows the best thing is building and seeing the finished article in real bricks! So I went round to hers for a couple of weekends, and to be honest, she did really well building it, just a couple hiccups due to LDDs not quite so good instructions... but when it was finished, she was well pleased with it! I know it's quite simple and nothing extravagent, but I was working with a budget, a time limit and also a lack of experience in doing houses or anything like this So, in all its gingery glory, here it is: Lego Gingerbread house by Daft Vader1, on Flickr Lego Gingerbread house by Daft Vader1, on Flickr Lego Gingerbread house by Daft Vader1, on Flickr Lego Gingerbread house by Daft Vader1, on Flickr Lego Gingerbread house by Daft Vader1, on Flickr Lego Gingerbread house by Daft Vader1, on Flickr Edited February 11, 2014 by Fuppylodders Quote
