gabrielerava Posted March 24 Hi to everybody, this is my take for Lego Set 70425 Newbury Haunted High School. Since there are no school in Rava Town (my lego city layout) i boght the set some times ago. Once built I realized it was way to small to fit with the others buildings of my city. So I started looking for a modified version on internet. No way. Months passed and no mod on the net. So i bought a second copy of the set and slowly I made my MOD. Compared to the original set, I closed the building on the back, added a small courtyard on the front with a fence around and a birch (we are in the year of the birch as you know). Moreover I designed to model cover the dimension of two baseplates and structured it to fit as a double croner building (sidewalks on both sides). The school is no more haunted of course… This is the groundfloor with the fence, the garden, the small wall and so on... And here follows the shots of the other sections of the building. Hope you enjoyed. In case you can find more photos on my FLICKR account https://www.flickr.com/photos/132864555@N03/ See you! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
neonic Posted March 24 Nice Great architecture / color combo also Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Grey Magistrate Posted March 25 This is really great! I especially like the stone path and the courtyard fountain. I like the black-and-white tree trunk too. Did you retain any of the indoor detail or is it empty inside? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
corasaur Posted March 25 Wow. Looks too regal to be a high school any more. feels like a university building. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Thanks to everybody for appreciation. I will keep it as high school at the moment, in the future, with some extention it coul become a university as well, let's see. No indoor detail since it's built mainly to be put into my city. When I noticed that nobody was interested in looking inside the buildings (ne9ither me in fact) I stopped building interiors for my modulars… See you next time!

Kilbo Baggins Posted May 28 This is amazing! I am looking to do something similar so I can incorporate it into my town. I'm assuming you bought two sets? Any advice for someone looking to undertake this project? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Agent 86 Posted May 29 Very nice! For the building itself, did you only use bricks from two sets? I'd love to MOD a smaller-scale (32-wide) Modular school for my Lego City, but I limit my MODing to bricks / designs obtainable from combining multiple sets (as Bricklink is a step too far for my limited skills).

Faefrost Posted May 30 I love it! I assume it starts with 3 or 4 of the basic sets? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Any advice for someone looking to undertake this project? Well, it’s not that difficult. Usually I suggest to set well the measures and the proportions at the beginning, then you can go “free hand “ and have your building time! On 5/29/2020 at 3:35 AM, Agent 86 said: Very nice!

I used bricks from two official sets. But they were not enough. I had to use my own brick reserves. Especially in terms of great plates and dark red bricks. 20 hours ago, mic8per said: Great 👍 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Tia1234 Posted June 11 (edited) Amazing project. It looks incredible. High Schools are not that great looking in real life. ________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ Studying in college is sometimes hard.

murtaughf3 Posted August 1 Looks like it would blend right in with modulars. Nicely done. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
