STHLM Posted January 29, 2022 The idea for the round roof has literally been on a shelf and collected dust since October 2020 when I started building a theater. The arch to the backyard is built a little diagonally. [MOC] Brown corner tower house by Nybohov Creation Ltd., on Flickr The sides of the octagonal tower are five studs. It would have been easy to use the 3 studs wide windows, but I like to build a bit more difficult. It may not be that common with a door in the tower, but I wanted to test if it was possible.[MOC] Brown corner tower house by Nybohov Creation Ltd., on Flickr Happy girl.[MOC] Brown corner tower house by Nybohov Creation Ltd., on Flickr Sad giutarist.[MOC] Brown corner tower house by Nybohov Creation Ltd., on Flickr [MOC] Brown corner tower house by Nybohov Creation Ltd., on Flickr I took this picture while I was working on a solution. There are arches throughout the building that are fixed at one end. The portal sits 4 studs from the gable at the front and 2 studs from the gable at the back. The house is 13 studs deep and the walls 2 studs thick (the first two arches are parts of the wall). At a length of nine studs, the arches are displaced 2 studs laterally. The middle arch sits on a stud, so in practice four arches move one stud laterally. As so often when I want to make small shifts, it is the company Clips & Bars that applies.

koalayummies Posted January 29, 2022 He's always building! This is outstanding. So many great techniques throughout, those snot window frames, the octagonal corner, that domed roof and the nougat and reddish brown go so well together. Once again your mini builds are fantastic as well, those birds! And showing your design for the round roof is so very cool, masterful techniques and construction. Absolutely brilliant!

ExeSandbox Posted January 30, 2022 Impressive mix of building techniques and a cozy design! The build for the guitarist is perfect haha (As well as him sitting on a speed limit sign) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
snaillad Posted February 1, 2022 Lots of nice techniques and touches. I like the lamppost design especially the fig on top! It's a shame the archway isn't easier to see, it's an effective technique. I would definitely use it again sometime maybe in a grander scale so it can be more appreciated. I like the colour choices as always. Well done! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I sometimes borrow from others, so I like to give credit and to share my techniques. On 1/30/2022 at 3:02 PM, ExeSandbox said: Impressive mix of building techniques and a cozy design!

Well, haven't we all stealed a traffic sign to improve the interior design in real life? 21 hours ago, snaillad said: Lots of nice techniques and touches.

The by far most popular of my photos on Flickr is one with lampposts. I've put some lampposts in this album: https://flic.kr/s/aHsmP94Cp5 I agree that the archway is a bit hidden, but I'm afraid that's the nature of an archway. 13 hours ago, jalemac34 said: Very nice build, very technical, thanks for the tips ;) Thank you!
