CarsonBrick Posted January 20, 2012 Posted January 20, 2012 (edited) This is Moaning Myrtles Bathroom from Harry Potter and the Chamber of Secrets. I was inspired to make this many months ago and finally got around to posting it. It was just too perfect for this community build! This is actually my first one, but hopefully not my last. Hope you like it! Moaning Myrtles Bathroom by Carson Hart, on Flickr Here's a front view. Moaning Myrtle Bathroom ~Front by Carson Hart, on Flickr I also took a picture of this since I though that some might like to se how I did the back window.

Oky Posted January 20, 2012 Posted January 20, 2012 Uhm, the discussion thread says to make a new topic for each entry, and there is an entry index in the first post of that thread, so don't make people repost their entries in yours. That said, your entry looks great! A bit bare, but that's OK. The window looks HUGE though! I don't think it was quite that big in the movies. Other than that, great work! Does the center piece open up? Quote
JackJonespaw Posted January 20, 2012 Posted January 20, 2012 Looks great! That's some nice architecture! Quote

Does the center piece open up? That's comlpetely my bad. I was confused about the whole posting thing so I think I'm going to delete this and post another. By the way, I did see a reference picture with a window alsmot exactly like that, so I'm not sure. Thanks though! Quote
Oky Posted January 20, 2012 Posted January 20, 2012 Don't create a duplicate topic. Just remove the first paragraph of your post and ask a mod to change the title for you. If you look at the following picture, you'll see that the window is hardly any wider than the center piece and is only 1-2 feet above the ground. So, the entrance to the chamber of secrets doesn't open up, I take it? Quote
Brickity Posted January 20, 2012 Posted January 20, 2012 It doesn't matter if the window is too big, you did an excellent job! I really really like it. I admire you all HP artists Quote

This is the reference picture I found. Quote
CorneliusMurdock Posted January 20, 2012 Posted January 20, 2012 I think it looks very movie accurate. I remember always thinking how absurdly huge and empty that bathroom looked in the movie. Great work! Quote
fyrmedhatt Posted January 20, 2012 Posted January 20, 2012 I like how empty it is, it truly shows the 50 years of lonely existence for Moaning Myrtle the ghost. The stained glass windows are excellent, and you've pulled off some great angles in the build as well. Quote
Si-MOCs Posted January 20, 2012 Posted January 20, 2012 I *LOVED* This. The size is great. I've always pictured Hogwarts to be HUGE when I read the books. That stained glass is fantastic - as is the fountain.... though I must know... does it open? Quote
The Penguin Posted January 20, 2012 Posted January 20, 2012 Looks outstanding to my taste! Since we do not make strictly movie-related MOCs, those windows and the general shape work pretty well. Hogwarts is supposed to be huge and a bit wacky, if you read first two books. A very neat and a very clean MOC! Good day, ladies and gentlemen! ) Quote
Ceroknight Posted January 20, 2012 Posted January 20, 2012 The window really drew my attention, well done! Quote
Oky Posted January 20, 2012 Posted January 20, 2012 Looks like I am overruled again. That reference picture is photoshopped and taken at an odd angle, so it wasn't the best reference to use in my opinion, but since the result still looks nice, I don't really mind. Quote
Miss Kyle Posted January 20, 2012 Posted January 20, 2012 Very, very, very clever building about the stained glass window! I might even snatch that idea ;) Finally a use for all these transparent 1x1 round plates... Great work, I like it. Quote
TheLegoDr Posted January 20, 2012 Posted January 20, 2012 Another great addition to the Community Build. The window is impressive for sure, but I am most amazed at the entrance to the Chamber. The shape and coloring works well. I feel the window may be a bit large, but at the same time it is a very large castle and there are going to be grand stained glass windows about, so why not in this particular lavatory. Plus, I agree that the big window and the empty room adds to the loneliness for Myrtle. Brilliant work. Keep it up. I can't wait to see more. Quote
lightningtiger Posted January 20, 2012 Posted January 20, 2012 Excellent creation ' CarsonBrick ', I really like the stain-glass windows. Good luck in the contest ' CarsonBrick ' and keep casting those spells ! Quote
Vindicare Posted January 20, 2012 Posted January 20, 2012 (edited) Looks pretty spot on, despite it's size. I really like window, very cool. IMO, everything looks out of scale with Hermoine. Maybe it would've been better to present this without her... Edited January 20, 2012 by Legocrazy81 Quote
JackJonespaw Posted January 20, 2012 Posted January 20, 2012 What contest? I think he meant community build. Quote
Legomaster34 Posted February 15, 2012 Posted February 15, 2012 Wow, I really like that stained-glass window! Really great job on that! Quote
