pillpod Posted July 18, 2013 Hey there! I just finished my latest mini modular builds. These two are the third and fourth builds I've done. A picture below shows all four that I've done. Here they are: "Ollivander's" "Pumpkin Factory" (inspired by flickr user 'RedCoKid's' minifig scale Pumpkin Factory) Here is the lot of four I've done so far: More photos can be seen on my flickr. Let me know what you think! Thank you for looking. P.S. One day I'll get a camera to photograph these things properly. One day... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Teessider Posted July 18, 2013 Great MOCS. I love the colour scheme for the Pumpkin Factory. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Kristel Posted July 18, 2013 Both of these are great! Olivander's is instantly recognisable and you've done an awesome job converting RedCoKid's Pumpkin Factory building into mini scale. The Pumpkin Factory is my favourite of these two and I particularly like how you have done the windows and awnings on the ground floor. The street so far looks great too!

pillpod Posted July 19, 2013 Thanks you two! I'm happy with how they turned out. Sand green is annoyingly expensive though... I'm gonna start designing a new one soon. Gotta thin of some ideas! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
TomLego Posted July 19, 2013 A couple of things. First, all of them are outstanding but the Pumpkin Factory definitely gets the first place blue ribbon. Second, so many of the MOC buildings that I see are simple rectangles that lack much detail. All of your buildings have design features that take them outside the usual design box and make them unique. Good job. As far as sand green goes, I bought the haunted house and converted it to a modular building. May have to buy another haunted house for the sand green bricks. Great job!

jluck Posted July 19, 2013 Great additions! The Pumpkin Factory is by far my favorite, the details are just excellent! Yout colors are outstanding. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Denes Posted July 19, 2013 The gold-green-darkblue colors of the "Ollivander's" its amazing and the "Pumpkin Factory" with those details, so cute Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
TheLegoDr Posted July 19, 2013 I am impressed to say the least. Ollivander's is instantly recognizable. I will definitely borrow some ideas to copy it. I wanted to make a more accurate large scale version of it, but I may end up doing Diagon Alley in miniature form to save space...decisions, decisions... The Pumpkin Factory is instantly recognizable also, if you've seen the MOC. I have, so the moment you put pumpkin factory in the title, I knew I was in for a treat and you didn't disappoint. Great job on the awnings and the window effect due to color options. I can't wait to see more. I love miniature scaled builds. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Captain Settle Posted July 19, 2013 Nice! I love the Halloween style colour scheme for the pumpkin factory. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
pillpod Posted July 19, 2013 I appreciate everyone's kind words. @TheLegoDr: I have a soft spot for the 10217 Ollivander's, so it had to be done. The bay windows were probably the most difficult part to tackle but that's why mini building is fun. And that Pumpkin Factory that RedCoKid made is amazing...I hope I did it enough justice with my interpretation. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

And that Pumpkin Factory that RedCoKid made is amazing...I hope I did it enough justice with my interpretation. I love it and am flattered! The dark green works well with the orange, and the pumpkin at the top was a nice touch. Above all, the special part is that you've added a twist and made it your own. It makes me want to buy one!

pillpod Posted July 20, 2013 @RoxYourBlox: Thank you! I tell you what, I'll trade you the mini Pumpkin Factory for your regular Pumpkin Factory And if you can't part with the Pumpkin Factory, Green Gables Stadium will do! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
moctown Posted July 21, 2013 Well done, pillpod! I would even favor the pumpkin factory with it's characteristic appearence! Nice snotwork at the windows as well! I'd like to see more! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
pillpod Posted July 21, 2013 I appreciate the kind words, moctown. I'm working on two more now...we'll see how those turn out! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
