lightningtiger Posted November 15, 2010 Awesome work as always mate. I really like the look of this building. Thanks 'michaelozzie' for your kind comments. I'm currently designing part four and final pieces to parts one, two and three. Part four is the behind the counter section and part five will be the gas bottle platform on it's own. Keep on watching (because there will more updates tomorrow !) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
XimenaPaulina Posted November 15, 2010 I might have to change the BOC wording to smaller lettering - might be a tad too big. I really like those custom stickers. I think the BOC lettering is just about right, it's the same size as the Gas & Gear sign so it looks ok. But it's your call if you'll change it. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

jonwil Posted November 16, 2010 Looking good although IMO 1 or 2 more items in the "Safety" section would help (not sure what though) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
lightningtiger Posted November 16, 2010 Thanks 'jonwil' for your kind comments , now I still see about adding more Safety products to that wall. So keep on watching ! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

lightningtiger Posted November 17, 2010 Update time again, this part still needs signage, gas bottles and tiling for pavement, by tomorrow the latest. Comments welcome and keep on welding ! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Fuzzylegobricks Posted November 17, 2010 Update time again, this part still needs signage, gas bottles and tiling for pavement, by tomorrow the latest. Comments welcome and keep on welding ! Amazing! is that a loading ramp in the last picture? Great Job Keep it up! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
lightningtiger Posted November 17, 2010 Thanks 'Fuzzylegobricks' for your kind comment. Actually the item in question is not a ramp but steps up on to the loading/storage bay. I need to make gas bottles next and work out the sticker to say 'Gas Bottle Bay'....oh, yeah warning signs too might help ! Keep on welding ! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
lightningtiger Posted November 17, 2010 I have started work on the pavement around this MOC, plus worked out what I need for the gas bottles. Oh, yeah.....next to go into this mega creation....well it's only going to get bigger eh ?.....somewhere a farmer goes to buy and sell livestock/seed, buy a water pump or fencing material, obtain insurance or buy another block of land......an Elders Rural Services office....okay, boring name but it's going to get packed out too with mega detail. Starting on that tomorrow (actually today....much later today....going to bed soon) I'm a conformist! ! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Big Cam Posted November 17, 2010 Quickly.....lucky I found a welders helmet..... Again comments and suggestions welcome......keep on welding ! Oh this is my favorite so far. Great work lightingtiger! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
MightySlickPancake Posted November 17, 2010 (edited) Good stuff lightningtiger . Great detail and cant wait to see it finished . How big will it get or do you plan to make it? Thanks, CB Edited November 17, 2010 by crabboy329 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
sens1992 Posted November 17, 2010 Wow, I love this MOC Lightningtier. I think that it is your coolest creation! I really like it. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
lightningtiger Posted November 17, 2010 Thanks 'Big Cam', 'crabboy329' and "sens1992' for your kind comments. Okay, to ask the question of size, that divided road plate is the centre so another 32 stud wide is going on the right of the BOC Gas & Gear. Sorry, I can't find images to show of you the next structure, I'll still try and find some. Anyway, sticker sheets i must buy today plus ordering dark red and black components for the gas welding bottles....I must. Updating later on today.....so keep on welding !

Bob Posted November 17, 2010 Beautiful, Lightningtiger. I like the simplicity of some of your MOC's, they fit into the classic town theme. I also enjoy the interior you put together, it's very creative. Keep up the good work! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
