Hi everyone. This is my latest build named Avenue Saint-Jacques. It is a Haussmann styled building which are found in central Paris in abundance. I have wanted to do a 'Cafe corner' in a grand scale for a long time! It's not a build based on any real building that I know of. Most of these buildings have diagonal corners which I could not perfect to the point of being happy with. Also typically most buildings are seven stories high, this is only 6 as I ran out of bricks! Its about 76cm to the top of the chimneys. Part of the reason it is not a typical modular which I have done before was the fact I wanted to make an 'Art Nouveau' style Metro station and had to raise the street level to make steps down to the platform and also since it is an avenue the pavement had to be wider. In all its taken a couple of months to complete. The most difficult part of the build was incorporating the hinge into the side of the building for easier access to the apartments. I probably have not accurately portrayed the interior details and fittings so most of it is made up! I felt the building would have been quite sad without any interior details. On the ground floor there is a Cafe with street facing kiosk for pastries on the go, a clothes shop selling fine ladies wear and finally the Metro station entrance. The first floor has an office and a dental surgery. The four upper floors have apartments, with a top floor penthouse with a full balcony. Some apartments have kitchens and bathrooms which I have tried to get decent photo's to see the details. A central staircase allows access to all the rooms. The whole scene is based sometime in the past, not quite sure when but before the comforts of technology! I have added several exterior and interior pics for now. All others can be found at the link at the bottom of the post. There are 22 rooms in all. More photo's can be found on my flick here: http://www.flickr.co...s/52656812@N04/ All thoughts welcome!

Hi everyone I have created a small landscape based on the book Harry Potter and the Goblet of fire. The movie and the set 4762 were a disappointment. The book describes the presence of a town with small cottages with gardens and the treasures of the champions are held on a small square. I have tried to recreate the scene from the book on a 32x32 plate. There are two small cottages and a square. Harry wants to rescue Ron and Hermione and confronts the merman. Victor Krum is on his way to rescue Hermione. Here is an overview of the landscape. Here is a link of the Flickr album. https://www.flickr.com/photos/137652851@N07/albums/72157669370404822 The photo's are also on my Brickshelf account. http://www.brickshelf.com/cgi-bin/gallery.cgi?f=564893 Feedback and questions are welcome.

Hello fellow EB members; I present my newest MOC with a distinct American feel from the 1940's - Brickhills Avenue. It was inspired by a trip to Disney's Hollywood studios several years ago. I was really interested in the Art Deco/Streamline styling of some of the stores on 'Sunset Boulevard' and 'Hollywood Boulevard' and did some research to find out where they got their inspiration from. Many of these buildings are based on real one's in and around L.A, many of which are still in use today albeit with different purposes. The corner store houses Gini's electrical store and the white and black streamline building is a ladies clothing boutique. I certainly enjoyed making the ladies store more than the electrical shop I've set it in the early 1960's, just as the 'Walk of fame' stars we're being added to the sidewalk/pavement, also a good excuse to use some very cool Scooby-Doo 1960's hairpieces! Anyway on with the pics - all 7 of them; You can see them at flickr if you prefer on the link here: https://www.flickr.c...s/52656812@N04/ Any questions, comments or suggestions welcomed!

Hi everyone, My latest moc is called The Ocean restaurant and is inspired by Miami's south beach area. I felt some of my ealiest attempts on the style didn't do it justice. I thought a 1 storey building wouldn't be as time-consuming as some of my more recent buildings much larger in size which would allow me to concentrate more on the details and refinement. The exterior was done first and I wasn't originally going to do an interior but was persuaded to and I'm pleased I did as it turned out to be pretty fun designing. Anyway on with the pics - There's only 5 this time so i'll put them all in here These are all the pictures from this MOC, if you'd prefer to view them at flickr go here: https://www.flickr.c...s/52656812@N04/ Comments welcome!

I seem to be going on a MOC-ing spree! "The police have themselves an RV!"- Die Hard Mine is based on the MOC by Mocpages member Death Metal. The only major difference between ours is that mine has a smaller and simpler Common Remotely Operated Weapons System (CROWS) mount. Police APC 1 by Ryn Labrie, on Flickr Police APC 2 by Ryn Labrie, on Flickr Police APC 3 by Ryn Labrie, on Flickr Police APC 4 by Ryn Labrie, on Flickr I also made a dual minigun turret for the times when more firepower is needed.

Hello fellow EB members. My latest creation Piazza Maria is a little closer to home than my last, a town square with influences from several different parts of Europe. There is a deli, an ice cream parlour and a furniture shop around the main square with a market with outside seating to create some hustle and bustle! I only chose to furnish the interior's on the ground floors in all 3 buildings as there is very little depth to the buildings to accommodate a lot of apartment furniture like beds and such. I merely wanted window decoration where possible to show the buildings purpose. Anyway on with the pics, there's only 7 so they are all in here, apologies for editing of the last two, I tried to erase out some brightly coloured plates underneath so it looks a little scruffy! If you wish to view them in flickr you can on the link here: https://www.flickr.c...s/52656812@N04/ Any comments welcome! Cheers

Today I have a pair of MOCs that I deem the first of their kind on the internet. I felt that the world of Lego was lacking in little-known warehouse vehicles, so I built a Hubtex-style sideloader forklift and an electric pallet truck. I have only seen one other sideloader, however it was a technic model with power functions. Hubtex 1 by Ryn Labrie, on Flickr Hubtex 2 by Ryn Labrie, on Flickr Hubtex 3 by Ryn Labrie, on Flickr As you can see, my vehicle is heavily based on the Hubtex MQ40, however I placed the door on the back, and the wheels are unable to pivot.

My first MOC, nothing as fancy as what I've seen on this site but still proud of it. My Town is still very much WIP. Most of the windows and gold pieces came from 2006/2007? pirate set. The roof was from a batman set around the same time. I recently started doing Lego again.

I like to show you my new MOC: KOMATSU 895 “The gentle giant” At this moment, the KOMATSU 895 is the biggest forwarder of KOMATSU Forest. This moc took me three months to complete, because it was a challenging build to get all the details and functions in this 1:25 scale model. In real, the 895 has several ingenious functions to load and transport a lot of trunks. The following functions are in this scale model: - Wheel suspension -Telescopic boom -Shovel blade -74-AWI-4v diesel engine - Cabin with door - In the cabin, an operators seat which can turn 360 degrees - Ladder for enter te cabin - Adjustable LoadFlex - Adjustable Flexgate I've choose the 1:25 scale because I want to build a forest layout for this forwarder and a KOMATSU harvester. The 1:25 scale is a challenge for a detailed build, but I think I managed it Pictures: 01_KOMATSU_895 by Mathijs Bongers, on Flickr 02_KOMATSU_895 by Mathijs Bongers, on Flickr 03_KOMATSU_895 by Mathijs Bongers, on Flickr 08_KOMATSU_895_transporting_trunks_adjusted_LoadFlex by Mathijs Bongers, on Flickr Adjustable LoadFlex 09_KOMATSU_895 by Mathijs Bongers, on Flickr 10_KOMATSU_895_backside by Mathijs Bongers, on Flickr 12_KOMATSU_895_suitable_for_rugged_terrain by Mathijs Bongers, on Flickr The forwarder is suitable for rugged terrain. 20__KOMATSU_895_74-AWI-4V_diesel_engine by Mathijs Bongers, on Flickr 74-AWI-4V diesel engine Picture which shows all functions: 25_KOMATSU_895_overview_functions by Mathijs Bongers, on Flickr for more picture see my Flickr profile: https://www.flickr.c...157653524113986 Hope you like it -
Time for something fresh, a complete redo of something only two months or so old. I rehashed a lot of the last roadhouse but made it more diner like for truckers to sit and drink coffee. Keep watching !

Hey guys, I have found a cool way to use the minifigure style head piece to go inside boilers. I just used that and an upside down 1x1 to give it some depth. Lego train Boiler by Railco1, on Flickr Lego train Boiler by Railco1, on Flickr I think it adds a small touch to the boiler and I hope you like it! -Rail Co [How you can use it for cars!]: http://www.eurobrick...howtopic=105602

Hey guys, I have found out you can use the minifgure style head piece inside of wheels to add some extra detail to some vehicles. Sorry in advance for slightly blurry images I wasn't using the best camera and I have unsteady hands. Style 1: IMG_20150207_124635620 by Railco1, on Flickr Style 2: IMG_20150207_125438985 by Railco1, on Flickr Hope you like these i think they are kind of cool, you do not need to include a 1x1 round plate but I did for a little color in the rim. -RailCo NOTE: You cannot do these with the new style wheels that clip in you can use them on the new ones that use an axle as shown.
