Yperio_Bricks Posted December 30, 2022 After this moc is sitting untouched on my desk for quite some weeks now, i had to finally post it. Like i wrote on Discord, i feel like i am stuck and can not add or change something, so i want to post it and go on. I am still very happy how everything turned out! After all this is my first moc that is not Star Wars I still have problems with photography. The large colored cardboards i bought are not large enough (So i have to edit the background in PS) and i have only a potato camera. I have to change that next year! Using my free newbie license i'd like to license this build as a small commercial property in the settlement of Punto Sur. After arriving in Punto Sur on the island of Maldria, Hyperion acquired a rather new building that should be used as an trade office. The people of Punto Sur tell different stories of how the 1 emerged on the house's facade. Some people say that a tropical storm hit the region and lightning struck the house, leaving a yellow burn mark. Others say that the stonemason's son left a deep scratch in the fine marble. Then there is the story of a drunken painter who forgot which century it was when he wanted to decorate the house with the yellow 622. Either way, Hyperion is happy with his new office and ready for the adventures that lie ahead! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Professor Thaum Posted December 30, 2022 Very nice classic pirate touch for this building ! The BoBS year is currently 622 but the 1622 is very nicely done ! And the story is fair to explain ! May I suggest to Hyperion to let some ivy cover the yellow 1, it will solve the matter and give some green touch to the house. This fleshy fig is ugly .

NOD Posted December 30, 2022 This is a nice merchant's office. I like the white walls and arches in the foreground and behind them the yellow walls with the windows. I like the fleshy fig. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Fraunces Posted December 30, 2022 not bad at all! Love the classic style. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Kai NRG Posted December 31, 2022 A lovely building, the yellow and nougat complement each other very well and I approve the artist's choice to write 1622 just for looks even though the year is 622 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Ross Fisher Posted December 31, 2022 A lovely little build. Reminds me of the opening scene of The Good, The Bad and The Ugly for some reason... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I know the year was 622 but i just couldn't do it But, i mean, i didn't do anything. You have to ask the people of Punto Sur if you want to know the truth Ivy i can do maybe in 2 years when i have enough parts You see all my "good" vegetation and flower parts in this build.

evancelt Posted January 1, 2023 Lovely job! I like the ground texture a lot, and like I mentioned on Discord the upsidedown curved arch slopes do a great job framing the yellow sections (which pop!) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Capt Wolf Posted January 1, 2023 Excellent merchant office, and it fits in well in Punto Sur! Great use of the the classic white-yellow-red color scheme with updated esthetics. And with a new office, the vines haven't had time to grow much yet. the balcony and recessed window areas are nice touches. The only thing it really lacks for me is minifigs to add some activity. But a great addition to Punto Sur! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

But a great addition to Punto Sur! Many thanks! I have basically no pirate or imperial minifigures yet Luckily i could use Ron's torso from a Harry Potter advent calender for Hyperion. I have also two HP figures that i can use for accountants or office workers. At PaB i bought five of the green torsos from Boutique Hotel that i can use as basic soldiers. That's it. I know Bricklink and things like that but don't want to use it. I hope for Pirates of the Caribbean 6. Maybe in three years... Fingers crossed Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Yperio_Bricks Posted January 2, 2023 Nah, i'm not in a hurry. If it takes me some years to get some nice pirate minifigures, it's okay. Basically i want to go into a shop and buy what i need and if that is not possible, i loose enough interest so i don't care about buying single minifigs online at bricklink and stuff like that Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I like masonry bricks too but i try to use not too many of them. I also use (and ran out of ) white 1x2 tiles, which i use to create some texture accompanying the masonry bricks.
