Toa_of_Shadow Posted March 9, 2020 You definitely did a fantastic job on the exterior and interior and out did the official LEGO set in both looks and “playability” with the interior. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
ExeSandbox Posted March 9, 2020 Thanks so much everyone for all the positive comments! I never would have thought so many people would like this, I'm so glad all of you enjoyed my creation! I'm doing my best to promote the project, so I hope it makes it to 10k too. I'm sure it's a set that many fans would want. On 3/8/2020 at 8:04 PM, RedHoodPug said: Full credit to you @Exe Sandbox. Not only have you defied the space available and got the details in that you have, but also the use of smooth surfaces and studwork really highlights the marine engineering element. My only critique - and it pains me to say it because this is such a good build - is that it looks like new. I’m not up enough on my brick knowledge to say what would work best for tired driftwood, so I’ll leave it on a high and say well done. Thanks! It was a miracle I was able to fit all that detail in with the space I got. It's as if a 32x48 baseplate was made to have a Krusty Krab built on top of it. That's a very valid critique, and something I have thought about too. The driftwood texture was essential to the aesthetics of the Krusty Krab, but I didn't have the black magic (brick magic?) skills that would be needed to pull it off without any printing/stickers. (Also got to keep the piece count under 3000, but it's something that I would like to explore one day.) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I didn’t want to mention the dreaded sticker for fear of being booed off the forum that you’ve created what you have without them is impressive, and I know some builders like to keep it brick. Hope it gets there. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Evergreen Posted March 10, 2020 WOW! This is a fantastic MOC of the Krusty Krab. It makes me wonder why LEGO never did a UCS style for the Spongebob line. One thing concerns me though the fact that the model is made in digital bricks won't affect the passability of this would it? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Yeah, Spongebob had so many beautiful buildings and vehicles to make great sets out of. I'm not quite sure about that, a lot of Product Ideas are digital, but I am somewhat concerned about the amount of new part colors they have to produce for this.

Huigberts Builds Posted March 11, 2020 This looks so good so many details. Makes me sad the theme ended years ago, loved it so much. Great job recreating the Krusty Krab in Lego. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

This amazing creation deserve to have such achievement!! Well done bro!! Thanks so much everyone! When I first submitted the project, a couple of people said it could make it to 10k in 2 months, but I didn't think it was remotely possible. Looks like I was wrong. At first I didn't create this with the intent of it becoming a set (I just wanted to see if I could reach 10k), but as time goes on, the more I realized I actually wanted this to become a set. Let's hope it passes the review indeed. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I had no prior experience to submitting Product Ideas before this, and I didn't want to just submit a project that no one cares about and be guaranteed to expire. It just so happens that Spongebob Squarepants was completely open for the taking, so I had to give it a try and see what happens. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
