shannanigan Posted December 21, 2015 (edited) I got back into collecting LEGO when Monster Fighters came out... and now its a full blown obsession. But my bank account and home aren't big enough to sustain all my ideas so I've taken to creating in LEGO Digital Designer! I've started this post to share my designs once they are finished... my virtual LEGO town... Tile Valley, Bricktopia. Maybe someday I will win the lottery and be able to make them IRL. :) All designs rendered using "Bluerender" with "Sunflow MOD"... both found here on Eurobricks! EDIT AGAIN: Got this all figured out now, thanks everybody! Going to list them here for easy linking... :) - PIRATES COVE TAVERN - SLOPE ESTATES : The Cuboid - BRICK TIKI : A Plastic Polynesian Paradise - TRI-BUSINESS BLOCK : Comics, Coffee and Flowers Edited January 4, 2016 by shannanigan Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Lind Whisperer Posted December 21, 2015 Nice. Any interior, or just the facade? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
shannanigan Posted December 21, 2015 Nice. Any interior, or just the facade? Thank you.. and Yes! But I can't post them... :/ I have them on my Flickr account if you want to check them out... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
muffluvin Posted December 21, 2015 These are great. Hope the time comes when you built them with real bricks. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
L@go Posted December 22, 2015 EDIT: Ok... I wanted to post images but it appears I'm not allowed. Maybe I can only do one a day? Or should I link instead of attach? I also can't reply to my own post... this website is super confusing! Embedding the pictures is how you should do it - Eurobricks doesn't allow image hosting on the site. Seeing as you already have a Flickr account that should be very easy to do :) Also, I believe you can reply to your own posts - but not straight away, there's a time limit to how soon you can do it.

Withacee Posted December 22, 2015 (edited) There is a tutorial here somewhere, about embedding images from you flickr account. Can't find it at short notice, but maybe a moderator can point you in the right direction. Nice MOC, by the way! Edited December 22, 2015 by Withacee Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Can't find it at short notice, but maybe a moderator can point you in the right direction. Nice MOC, by the way! Thanks! All I could find prior to my post was size limitation info. I assumed that meant I had to shrink my files to post them... but linking is fine with me! :) Edited December 24, 2015 by shannanigan Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
shannanigan Posted December 23, 2015 (edited) Next up.. one of my little "retro" houses. I have several of these in the works... I might also add "backyards" on separate 16x32 baseplates. Edited December 24, 2015 by shannanigan Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

shannanigan Posted January 4, 2016 I went a little nuts on this one... lots of "custom" tile designs and minifigs! If only I owned a pad printer! Lots more pics on my Flickr account. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
L@go Posted January 4, 2016 This last one is brilliant. Cool colour choices and lots of interesting details. And those custom-designed logos of yours are perfect! I agree - if only you owned a pad printer :) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
ReplicaOfLife Posted January 5, 2016 Nice designs, I especially like the tavern and the tri business block. The latter has a very basic similarity to the DO in terms of overall shape, so it would very nice next to it, methinks Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
danstraindepot Posted January 5, 2016 I'm really impressed with these! If you get that pad printer, and sell the custom printed pieces and instructions count me in! (And I'm Very Picky by the way) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

The latter has a very basic similarity to the DO in terms of overall shape, so it would very nice next to it, methinks I really like the Detective's Office design... how it incorporates several buildings of various widths into one baseplate. It was definitely the inspiration! It really adds something nice aesthetically to LEGO's Modular lineup... I see LEGO did similar with the new Bank as well. :) This last one is brilliant.

If you get that pad printer, and sell the custom printed pieces and instructions count me in! (And I'm Very Picky by the way) Thanks! I'm an illustrator and a designer "by trade" and when I get into creative blocks for my other work I design LEGO stuff. I'm finally getting around to sharing it... so it might take me a while longer to monetize. But if I can make it happen I will let you know! :) Edited January 5, 2016 by shannanigan Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
