Scorpio Posted November 16, 2010 I have spent the last two weeks sorting and organizing my Lego room so I treated myself to a build this weekend. Without further ado I present my renovated downtown factory. As always comments, questions and criticism are welcome. I can already tell you off the bat that I personally do not like the gray arches and I am going to change them but I didn't feel like taking the whole thing apart so soon. Thanks for looking.

prateek Posted November 16, 2010 Wow! Very realistic! It looks like an old factory. I love all the small details. One thing I'd change is that awkward grey portion in front of the garage. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
lightningtiger Posted November 16, 2010 Excellent old school factory complete with water tower and modern air extraction system ....though it might need a little adjustment by the looks of it. Great piece of Lego building 'DHCP1121' and keep on MOCing ! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Scorpio Posted November 16, 2010 One thing I'd change is that awkward grey portion in front of the garage. I probably should have taken a better pic of that. The gray thing is a loading dock. But I agree, I could work on making that look better. I couldn't find my Lego truck to back up into it. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
prateek Posted November 16, 2010 (edited) Okay, now I understand. I was thinking of a ramp, but now that you reminded me of a loading dock, it looks fine to me Edited November 16, 2010 by prateek Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

buddy Posted November 16, 2010 This factory looks very accurate and realistic. Well done. ~buddy~ Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
XimenaPaulina Posted November 17, 2010 Very nicely done DHCP1121! I agree the design is very realistic to real factories. The various elements - smoke chimneys, water tank, exhaust vent - are all very well done. Great job overall! Any plans of putting workers, a forklift, and box/cargo/stuff in there?

Night City Dream Posted November 17, 2010 Noce job. What I ilked most about it is that it really gives the impression that it works: it is "dirty" and old. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I couldn't find my Lego truck to back up into it. No need, IMO - real loading docks on factories like this are just blocks of unfinished concrete anyway! I suppose you could add yellow safety rails if you really want to tweak it a bit. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
