kris kelvin Posted March 6, 2010 My lastest creation. Build for contest on polish blog - Link (unfortunately only in Polish). Eliot Ness and his companions. Fake box was made because it was a rule in the contest. Enjoy (I hope) Brickshelf - when public Flickr Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
SlyOwl Posted March 6, 2010 Really nice work, the minifigs are great, as is the period-styling. I especially like the grills on the windows. Makes me wish I was Polish Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Alex the Great Posted March 6, 2010 Very nice, I really like the grilled windows also. The vehicles are well done, and modular buildings are always cool. Keep it up, when's the release date? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Capt. Stabbin Posted March 6, 2010 Your MOCs are true works of art, such amazing detail. I especially like all the detail in the building. I'd buy this set in a heartbeat!! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Fires-storm Posted March 6, 2010 (edited) Wow, I love this! you had my hopes up that this was an actual set, I was about to cruise lego hoping to buy it I love all the detail you packed into it, including the cars, and custom mobsters! excellent work, and keep bricking!

Enilder Posted March 6, 2010 wow thought LEGO released another set today. this looks very good!!! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Mac-K Posted March 6, 2010 (edited) This is incredible work Kris! There is so much in this MOC to love! The detailing on the building is great, especially the dark red used for the intricate brick work. The vehicles are great as well, I especially like that patrol car. Elliot Ness and his crew just look fantastic. I love the Kevin Costner movie, and I could instantly tell who each of the four are, especially Oscar and Malone. Again, just awesome work Kris, thank you for sharing! Edited March 6, 2010 by Mac-K Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Zorro Posted March 6, 2010 Amazing piece of work, Kris Kelvin, there are few Polish people on Eurobricks, but the few we have all seem to be outstanding MOCbuilders! I love how you represented the Untouchables, looks very real to me . Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Sir Dillon Posted March 6, 2010 Beautiful building and cars, but did you really count all the pieces used in this creation? That is not a feat to be overlooked! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
remus753 Posted March 6, 2010 I assume it was intentional as my favorite detail is that the windows appear to have some grime around the edges. Sort of speaks to a rough and tumble era in Chicago, a very industrial city that was full of pollution at the time. Always impressed when someone goes to incredible lengths in order to make their design appear realistic. Well done! I would also like to echo what everyone else has said.

L-space Posted March 6, 2010 Great work Kris. Perfectly executed with great detail. And I see a new movie-role for Sean Connery as Jim Malone. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
insanerobo Posted March 6, 2010 Wow...that looks amazing! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Capt. Redblade Posted March 6, 2010 (edited) Great work Kris. Perfectly executed with great detail. And I see a new movie-role for Sean Connery as Jim Malone. Funny you should say that, because Sean Connery WAS Malone about 20 years ago. "You've just fulfilled the first rule of law enforcement. At the end of the day, make sure you go home alive. Thus endeth the lesson." (I might be paraphrasing. I've only seen the film once and it was pretty difficult to hear at that part.) Edited March 6, 2010 by Capt.

Commander_Rob Posted March 6, 2010 Wonderful, the building looks very nice, the minifigs are well done and the vehicles look as well designed as those from the Indiana Jones sets. Great builds from a great movie. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
GT-Vince Posted March 6, 2010 The safe is excellent. The whole building is very good, and the figs are a nice touch to complement the rest. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Jonas Posted March 6, 2010 Another excellent MOC, Kris! And, of course, again in your favorite dark red color. I also tried to read your blog in Polish and it seems to me that there is a strong competition among the LUGPol members. This may be the reason why all of you are so good in building.

Danpb Posted March 6, 2010 I almost thought this was a real set - ha. Fantastic work! Now for a second look at the details :) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Batbrick Posted March 6, 2010 Simply amazing! I love the dark red and all the little details, especially on the roof section. The vehicles are just as good, if this were a set I'd snatch it up immediately! I hope you don't mind if I take a little inspiration from this MOC? Batbrick Away!

gratefulnat Posted March 6, 2010 Just absolutely wonderful to see this. The patrol car and the safe are the two elements that really got me, the rest just only... blew me away. Superb!! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
marvinblue Posted March 6, 2010 Hi kris kelvin!! This is a fantastic MOC!! I love the vehicles and the figs in particular, but overall it looks fantastic. Well done!! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Svelte Posted March 6, 2010 This is indeed very nice! The dark, muted tones add to the brooding, noirish atmosphere and I think the height is just about perfect. It looks solid and fortified. The grills on the windows are a great touch and you do indeed get a sense that this is a 'dangerous' part of town. Lovely work! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
sok117 Posted March 6, 2010 I love the architecture, it really fits the time period. Nice job on the cars too and the figs are classic. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
lightningtiger Posted March 7, 2010 OMG ! That's AWESOME - totally awesome ! Looks like the characters are from the movie from a few years ago and not the TV series of the 50's. It's true the baddies could never pay them off no matter how much money was involved. The building - very late 20's - booze factory about to be raided by the looks of it. Now the best part - the vehicles - I love those, much better the ones from IJ set of last year - true to era ! Awesome work 'Kris Kelvin' and I'm a conformist! !

-obelix- Posted March 7, 2010 This is brilliant! I dont know which piece i like more, the minifigs, the cars, or the building... You really captured a moment in a time period here, mate... Great work! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
