Spud The Viking Posted September 15, 2021 (edited) Between docks and offices, The Queen's Crown public house is a popular place in King's Harbour! E'en though it is a small pub, it is always bustling with sailors, captains, and harbour workers. Well into the night, the quaint little pub is still supplying Her Majesty's naval forces with beverages, music, and laughs. Spoiler Inspiration for this build only came last night, and I used a bit of free time today to put it into bricks. The photo isn't the best, I will take more soon and upload more!

Garmadon Posted September 15, 2021 Lovely! I can't believe just how well the reds go with the light gray roof and gray corners! Excellent little cobblestone road too, and even with the few minifigures visible it already looks like a jolly place to be! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
evancelt Posted September 15, 2021 Nice! Definitely looking forward to the additional images The red/dark red mottling looks great and like @Garmadon said, the dark bley is dark enough to frame the reds and the light bley really well Fun seaweed tree and inverted tile cobbles! I also really like the white door and brackets for hinges. A for GoC from me! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I am glad how the red/dark red came together. 41 minutes ago, evancelt said: Nice!

Ross Fisher Posted September 15, 2021 Woo! Red and grey; it's a thing now! This is certainly better than my recent attempts. Lovely stuff. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Kai NRG Posted September 16, 2021 Really enjoying the way the red looks, great job sandwiching it between dark grey to keep it from overpowering the build. Really nice road texture too! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
LM71Blackbird Posted September 16, 2021 Very nice blending of the dark red and grey, I think it gives it a really nice look. The brickwork itself is great and those smooth round pieces used for the walkway are a really nice touch! A from me! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Kwatchi Posted September 16, 2021 To echo others, the light grey slate tile roof (and superb cobble pathway) looks great next to the dark red. A very appealing colour selection by you. Nice work! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Ayrlego Posted September 17, 2021 All round brilliant job here Spud! Firstly the colour palette, as others have mentioned, it works really well. I don't think I've seen that much normal red mixed into a dark red building before and it looks great. The reds then are contrasted nicely by the bleys. While a simple A frame, the structure itself pops with the detailed wall texture and insert in the front wall with the arch. The addition of the grey and sand green roof tiles is a nice little detail. Lastly, that tree looks really good. I had to have a close look to see that the spine pieces are attached to leaf pieces. In all, very well done and definitely a GoC from me Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Fraunces Posted September 17, 2021 Very good in colours indeed. The door is the part I like the most. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
