Widdi Posted February 11, 2010 (edited) I've cadded up another thing. This is based on an older idea posted in the City Ideas topic. The main building screams 80s, the Schirmbar not, since it's a bit clunky and with 4 walls. Model contains 940pcs (counted by the instructions), which would be in the 80-100€ range if it was an actual set. It's got a whopping 13 minifigs, since I've included two extra figs and a extra bar keeper Completed model. With all things added. Minifigs are all inside. Vehicles The model has 3 vehicles, not counting the six ski and snowboard equipments stuck in one of the racks (snowboards simulated by skateboards, just kill the wheel hubs) First a classic 80s-city car with opening engine compartment, like some 80s sets had. Then a modern quad and a classic snow scooter parked in front of the building. This little yellow car screams late 80s classic town and with 57 pieces The blue quad, with some more modern pieces included with 30pcs in total Lastly the classic 90s snow scooter. Made up of just 17pcs. Schirmbar building This is the schirmbar the only one in the lot without open back, due to it's odd octagonal shape. It's got a complete interior with 8 seats and the bar itself. Model contains 251 pieces for itself Basic interior 8 chairs round the bar at step 5 Completed interior the beer taps are installed and the first people inside. There's just the roof missing. Sadly I made some design flaws so it can only be opened by taking the roof off. Completed this part. The roof looks odd, due to the brick-built shape. To open: just remove the tile on top Apres-ski lodge The last and largest part of the model. It contains 3 stories and is fully brick-built. The House has a complete interior and except for missing balconies built in alpine style. and uses 530pcs for itself. Ground floor: Contains a bar, a little terrace, a DJ area and two sound boxes nearby Interior of the second floor. A kitchen with grill, stove and a little restaurant Third floor has 4 beds, making a nice bedroom for guests, that drank too much or students on skiing holidays Completed building. The cars aren't added yet, these are added in step 25.

lightningtiger Posted February 11, 2010 Looks fantastic 'Widdi', the first car screams classic town 1980's ! The snow-mobile is sick totally - I love it ! The bar is very interesting and a cool addition to the design. Now the lodge itself is very early 80's Lego town and very good - relaxing area down stairs - er well night club down stairs - PUMP UP THE VOLUME _ PUMP UP THE VOLUME - check it out !! Upstairs just simply somewhere to crash either when you've tired, or crashed out on the slopes or with the ladies you're trying to hook up with in the club downstairs ! Great design job 'Widdi' and I'm a conformist! ! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Klaus-Dieter Posted February 11, 2010 (edited) That's an outstanding MOC, Widdi! I really it! It looks absolutely realistic and in a very official Lego set style! The only thing I'd change would be to have the Schirmbar open on one side - like you did with the main building. Otherwise it's perfect! The most I like the Schirmbar and all that lovely interior designs. And of course the classic cars, the motor slide and the many minifigs and accessory. Very, very well done! :thumbup: Klaus-Dieter Edited February 11, 2010 by Klaus-Dieter Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
BlueBard Posted February 11, 2010 Nice, really nice actually, especially for a digital model! I love that Schrimbar, where I used to ski we just had the same design Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
slacker int Posted February 11, 2010 This has a great classic town feel to it Widdi! I too build digital models frequently, so I can appreciate the time and design you put into this. The set reminds me of a hostel I stayed in during a recent trip to Switzerland, complete with bar/club on lower level! I must admit, being from Canada, I have never heard of a Schirmbar... but after a bit of research on the net I'm thinking they are basically gazebos/beer tents!
