zeki Posted January 9, 2014 Wow! I love the blocky design and round entrance! It realy seems like an industrial building! Well done and nice addition to any modular alley! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
KringlesBricks Posted January 9, 2014 This is amazing!! The colors work real well together (IMO). Great details inside! These type of corner modulars are a challenge to make....but, you did exceptionally well with this one for sure! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
ronenson Posted January 9, 2014 Very nice. I love the inside corner approach, and I'd like to see this one in combination with other buildings if possible. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
sin Posted January 9, 2014 I like this a lot, the interior and exterior are very well done! The inside corner is something I haven't seen before, it will make for a more interesting street layout for sure. I'm loving your alley and delivery entrance too - is that a sand green fish?!

Chilis Posted January 9, 2014 Wow!! This was really nice! Packed with nice details ;) Brick on! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
eurotrash Posted January 9, 2014 The front face and the interior are impressive, but I'm a huge fan of the rear of the building! I love the grime and the run down feel to it. Congratulations on such a successful inside corner. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
L@go Posted January 9, 2014 The facade is obviously a challenge when there is so little of it :) and thus doesn't become the big part of the MOC that it normally would be on a modular building. But I like the curved parts a lot. The big plus with the inside corner approach is that you essentially can build the back of the building twice! Both those parts look very nice - the kitchen entrance is just as slightly shabby as is should be, and the side that has the tables on the porch is lovely, I'd very much like to have some noodles there. The interior is top notch as well, and the open solution between the floors is very typical for a building like this. All in all a very good effort. I hope you'll do well in the contest - although you have some stiff competition. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
TheLazyChicken Posted January 9, 2014 Wow, this is just to beautiful for my eyes to handle. This is the custom modular with the best entrance. Definetly keep up the outstanding, awesome and great work! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
tomdobs55 Posted January 10, 2014 The front face and the interior are impressive, but I'm a huge fan of the rear of the building! I love the grime and the run down feel to it. Of course you do. :-) I love that inside corner, the upstairs, and the kitchen. Hell it's all awesome! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Doom2099 Posted January 10, 2014 This is fantastic! Modulars set up like this for corners really give you a lot of options for your town, and the decor on this is a homerun! The details behind the restaurant are probably one of my favorite details. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
francismatteo Posted January 10, 2014 Wow!!! Love it. Great exterior and interior details. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
HDHell Posted January 10, 2014 The entrance is really good. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
ritzcrackerman Posted January 10, 2014 This is a great building. Do you have a picture of it with other modulars on either side? As other posters have said, the entrance is fantastic - It has a real "hole in the wall" feel (like you'd miss if if you walked past). I bet a photo of it integrated in to a street layout would make your presentation even better. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

LegoPanda Posted January 10, 2014 looks cool, much detailes, i love the use of ninjago doors Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Herky Posted January 10, 2014 great job, I like this a lot better than the current Parisian out there, too bad TLG didn't have your design instead. Love the industrial, the back even the inside of it looks great, it's gritty and I think I might have been in this place in San Francisco. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Man with a hat Posted January 10, 2014 Great modular. You don't see that many inside corner buildings. It looks nice. And you did a great job on the interior. Everything is perfectly fitting the theme, like e.g. those sliding doors. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Dirtbag Posted January 10, 2014 Fantastic. Superb. I can see this becoming a real set. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Legogal Posted January 10, 2014 (edited) I definitely would buy this modular set! So many cool details from the circular entrance to the two exteriors built out. WOW!!! Edited January 10, 2014 by Legogal Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Overcold Posted January 10, 2014 I really like the idea, the way the building is set up (interrior and exterrior), parts usage, and the colors! It's a nice small building you'd be proud to have in your town. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Redhead1982 Posted January 10, 2014 Making an inverted corner modular building is a challenge, and you did a great job. The minimal front facade is very interesting with the curved windows, but the back side and the interiors are the true gems of this MOC. The color scheme is interesting, but what I like the most is the difference between two sides of the buildings - on one side there's a lovely outside seating area, and just around the corner, there's more chaotic background.
