Sarophas Posted June 5, 2022 My entry for Summer Joust 2022 - Gradients category. I chose brown colours. (Brown, Reddish brown,Medium Nougat and Tan). Inspired by medieval/renaissance townhouses from the Baltic area. Hope you like it Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
GeoBrick Posted June 5, 2022 Oh my, that's gorgeous. Definitely reminds me of the merchant/guild houses in my region. Beautiful finishing touch with those three iron bars sticking out of the façade. I don't think I'm familiar with the brick you used to attach them to. Could you tell me the element code please? And what kind of mould did you use on top of the little front roof (the one with the dog above the clockworks. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Yeah on second thought they are pretty similar all around europe.. and my god do you have some spectacular examples in Belgium! It's just a 32064 Technic, Brick 1 x 2 with Axle HoleLeg. The t-bar-thingy just hides the vertical slit I think the part you described is a 2546 Bird, Parrot with Small Beak? Correct me if it wasn't the right brick Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Feuer Zug Posted June 6, 2022 Stellar build. The shift in colors definitely fits the idea of "gradients" to me. The facade matches with my memories of Baltic buildings I saw when living in Germany. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Also some Danish one, but sadly they are much rarer. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

But just relying on memory from buildings I have seen around my home area. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
