    Small Modular Building Standard

    These look great! I had something similar in mind here: https://www.eurobricks.com/forum/index.php?/forums/topic/107163-moc-fencing-studio-open-back-modular/
  3. Hi everyone, I'd like to show you my first MOD. As I already own two corner buildings, I have rebuilt my Palace Cinema as a non-corner building. The ground floor is now equipped with a bathroom, a back entrance and a grand staircase. The movie theater on the first floor includes more seating and is separated from the window front by a small hallway. Comments & suggestions welcome, thanks for looking! Originals on Flickr.

    MOD: Modular Police Station (60047)

    Hi everyone I'd like to present my new modular police station, based on the 2014 city set 60047. I got one set for christmas, bought another one with a discount and made a couple of bricklink orders to complete the station (mostly bricks and plates, tiles for the floors, some mifigs and accessories). It was a fun project! Comments & suggestions welcome, thanks for looking! The garage has space for a patrol car, a van and also for the two police dogs, when they are not out catching bad guys. The transparent stair case leads up to the welcome desk. On the first floor, the patrolwoman on duty welcomes citizens and visitors. There's a small meeting room to the left and the desk of the police sergeant on duty. One floor up, the chief is practising for the press conference in the briefing room. There's also an office for the special ops guys, the command center and the chief's office. The holding floor has all the necessities for processing and locking up the bad guys. The cop could smile all he wanted, Fred still didn't trust him. "Holy cow! These police guys must have used up all the tax money for their shiny new headquarters!" Originals on Flickr.

    [MOC]: Modular Bookstore

    Hi everyone I am happy to present my next MOC: A Modular Bookstore. For this building, I had three goals: I wanted to use "Bright Light Yellow"/"Cool Yellow" as one of the main colors, work on my SNOT techniques and bring a bookstore to my town! Trying out a panorama window technique, the glass is held by "Tile, Modified 1 x 2 Grille" at the bottom and top (studs down). I also wanted to use small offsets in the facade. The best seat in the shop is the red comfy chair at the window. The bookstore has a balcony overlooking the ground floor, which also houses the small coffee bar. Only the back half of the first floor detaches, to allow for the double height facade. Fits nicely in the neighborhood! A couple of more pictures on Flickr. Comments & suggestions welcome, thanks for looking!
  6. Really great work again, congrats! My favorite is the sand green building - that color is really nice. I especially like the pictures of the houses within your city - I hope to have something like this one day... :-)
  7. Hi everyone I am happy to present my newest project: The Fencing Studio. I wanted to build a companion to the new set 10246 - Detective's Office, as well as trying out a new form of modular buildings: open back modular / semi-modular / half-modular / slim modular / however you want to call it. It's only 16 studs deep, yet fits into the modular street (the front technic pin fits). What I liked about the form: - Faster building (I usually prefer building the outsides) - Uses a lot less bricks (that you usually don't see anyway) - Building the interiors feels like building vignettes - Less problems with layouts/staircases/etc. - Uses less space in your layout/LEGO room/closet I see these kind of buildings as a complement to regular modular buildings, around the outside of a town display, where it's great that you can get a look at the interiors (instead of just seeing the outside / back of modulars). The MOC features a fencing studio with adjoining office, the living room of an apartment upstairs (with roof terrace), a hip clothing boutique and a small coffee shop inspired by the LEGO Movie on the ground floor. There's some SNOT for the floor of the fencing studio, the coffee shop wall and the roof of the red part is upside down. The street is packed with local hipsters (beards and moustaches everywhere...) and Emmet just got his morning coffee. Comments and suggestions welcome, thanks for looking!

    MOC: Modular Shell Gas Station

    Hi everyone I am happy to present my first "big" MOC: A modular Shell gas station. When I got hold of a MISB set 1256 with its huge sticker sheet, I got started. The gas station is 32 x 48 studs big and a corner modular. There is a double gas pump, a vacuum cleaner, a tire inflator, a public phone and a city map. The shop sells everything from motor oil and fire extinguishers to newspapers and flowers. It has also a large choice of beverages and food - you can even get a burger (well, microwaved only, but still)! The neighboring 16 x 32 recycling station module adds the battery for the power functions lights in the roof and the shop. I also built a Scania tanker truck and a small Mini Cooper to go with the station. Comments & suggestions welcome, thanks for looking!

    MOC: Piazza Maria

    Superb! Love the colors (is this Bright Light Blue?), the window frames, the red awning - it has a great Italian feel!

    The Fishmaster - a salmon-colored modular building

    A very nice modular building! Great choice of color (and I thought bright light yellow was exotic... ). And there's the seagull from the Parisian Restaurant!

    MOC: Trolleybus

    Superb! The idea to steer the bus through the lines is brilliant. And the bus looks great!

    Thanks everyone for the very kind feedback. In fact, I am already working on a neighbor module to extend my American street! Now back to work...

    MOC: The Ocean Restaurant

    Really stunning, again a masterpiece! I love the absolutely clean looks, outside and inside. This and the color choices/stripes make it instantly recognizable as one of yours. My favorite part is the facade above the main entrance.

    [MOC] Suburb from the 70s

    This is superb! Love the atmosphere and the forced perspective background builds, looking really realistic!

    2015 Speed Champions Sets - Rumours and Discussion

    1. One type (98282) fits, the other one (50745) doesn't (the wheel seems to fit, but can't rotate): 2. The build is quite complex for a car, lots of brackets are used. Doors/sides and that ... back are probably the most interesting. 3. Oh, they have tons of useful applications : As they fit a stud on the inside, they actually are useful!

    2015 Speed Champions Sets - Rumours and Discussion

    Sure! The LaFerrari is only about one plate higher than the yellow convertible, but much longer and wider. But it still fits quite well into the city!

    MOD: LEGO Bike Shop & Café 31026

    Very nice! Very well done. And a great motivation to get on with my MOC, as I have three open boxes of 31026 right next to me...

    Modular Building Sets - Rumours and Discussion

    Thanks! Fully agree with Andy D here. I'd say: buy it and change it! For me, modulars are as much a starting point and inspiration as they are "finished" sets. As for the PC limo: I never even bothered to put it together (same for the FB truck). My modular city exists in the present time, even with all the old buildings (that's nothing special here in Europe), but all the old cars belong in the museum.
