hoopoe

nice work with the doors for the wings the nose looks a bit grim or unshaven ;-)

Here’s something for the french friends here. I found it in wikipedia when looking up the architectural term "intersection" (german: Vierung), because Cluny had two of them. Once cluny has been the biggest christian church of the world. To put it to LEGO was not a big deal, since much everything has 90° angles, but the microscale-result is very satisfying, well at least for me.

i have big difficulties writing here, because i have to type very very slow can't even use the copy-paiste for text

just tell when you're in town, you would be warmly welcomed it will also be exhibited in Mondsee (Upper Austria 5th to 6th of December, a good hour from munich)

Ok, I see. But yes. I would really prefer to have it back, since nearly all of my work is done in microscale. What stroke me is the way of moving without asking before.

very funny and charming indeed excellent work by the way

Hey, I've introduced me today as a new member of the family and then started a topic with a MOC of mine in the Microscale section, some have seen it already but now it is gone. If I broke any forum rules please tell me which they were, so I can avoid them in the future. Thank you! Edit: Oh, I see, someone has put the topic to another board. But actually IT IS more architecture and microscale than train, IMHO, so I'm not quite happy with the move. and just moving without telling first seems to me not very friendly or helpful when someone's new to the forum.

If it's the one of Paris, why did you short it? You put so much fine and incredible effort into your work, but to see it that short is disturbing mine eye.

Hey, little john, I wonder if this is a view into your own kitchen ... no bananas or brezels lyin' around showcase your love of cleanness, am I right? i see no reasons to change anything. it just looks sympathic and fine. and I'm quite happy, that you didn't use clothcapes of SW royal guards as curtains but built them with bricks!

Well, my boy's very first schoolday is not faraway, maybe I can talk him into wearing on of these, i hope, there is no copyright on them and I'm sure that ours will be more colourful ;-)

very bautifully captured each and everyone thus they don't even look like wartoys

Another excuse for LEGO Friends which brought us the new colors. The highlight in this model is the face, which looks better drawn than i the original film. It captures all the emotions one might expect from such a scene - or even more - and with just so few parts. Congratulations!

Very awesome and funny MOC with all the detail in floor and walls. Quite impressing are also the expressions of the faces.

I’d like to kick off with one of my (sort of) master pieces. At least some of my local LUG like it and it was displayed at our local LEGO store. It is a railway stop in Vienna, actually an underground-station of the line U6, but situated above floor level. The architect of the original building was Otto Wagner https://en.wikipedia...iki/Otto_Wagner, world famous for Art Nouveau (Jugendstil) in Vienna, Austria. It is my least „micro“-scale building I’ve ever built, the scale is approx. 1:100. I’ve tried to show as much detail as possible and it showcases each and every door and bench. Just in the wings I had to reduce the number of windows from 8 to 6, to keep the symmetry with the archs below. The roof rests like with the original building on the green stands, so they are functional even within my model. For the Nouveau-Art ornaments came mixel-teeth in quite usefully, as well as the round 1x1 mini-tiles. (klick to enlarge) Here’s a view into the building with the platform, therefor i removed the roof on one side. However, I did not add a train, because I’m more interested in architecture than in trains.

Hi everyone, although this site has EURO in its name i’m quite surprised to find so many here from all over the world, which makes the pleasure to join in even bigger. I’m from Austria, from the very heart of Europe and not to be mixed up with the land of kangoroos from downunder ;-) Austria is most famous for Mozart and the Blue Danube (which is not blue at all). I live, as one quarter of all Austrians in its capital, Vienna, where I am member of the local LUG „LGOe“. Our german-written homepage, which contains also a forum, would be www.lgoe.at. I’m in LEGO since childhood with the common long time of (nearly) not touching a brick until the day, when my boy set foot into our world (2008). Then I started to rebrick my old sets, but in the meantime, with all the new parts that have come with the new sets, I became a MOCer. My favorite subject when MOCing became Microscale, since I don’t have a house and space to keep parts and buildings is rare. When LEGO started the Architecture-Series I decided to turn Austrian buildings into LEGO-Microscale, I usually try to minimalize as small as I can without losing the things that make up the special approach of the original building. Thus I try to keep the proportions but overdo some important details - but you will find out yourself when i post the pictures. Another microscale I started together with another man of my LUG is a Microcaletown called Teensietown, which has indeed a spezial mix of scales but all together it looks quite pretty and it is growing exorbitantly fast. I’m a denier of most modern time tools and have neither accounts on facebook nor flickr. I will share my pics only in this forum or the one of my Austrian LUG. You may have noticed, that English is not my mother’s tongue. When writing in English I use to do it in a sometimes all too poetic style, so please accept the poetic license in my very words. Thanx!
