The shape is good enough. Maybe some tiles on the wings will make this aircraft more realistic. And the inner space in the cabine need some detales.

Very nice model! I am subscribe to the opinion of the commentators above. But why your trailer is black?! In the place I live they are mostly white or another light color.

Very nice bus in a minifig scale! I like the byke fastening, doors and driver's seat. I want to build bus from my native town too!

The plants look very great indeed! I like how they grow and sprouting through the road and crashing all around!!! Very naturalistic if this word appropriate to the huge mutant flowers!

Roger that! I am on my way for downloading!

Very nice carriage. I like the atmosphere that you successfully have expressed. Only one thing is confusing me... One horse power for such large carriage seems not enough. Let it be two horses!!! or four!!!

It's amazing! Especialy I like dual cannons!

I am waiting impatiently for the result. Good luck!

Ha-ha-ha!!! The same story in my family! The only difference that I go to the toy shop with my son and wife! And we buy lego for the child!

Very nice girlish set! Must have!

Good job! I like the moovie and cartoons and your car is very recognizable. Oh whant to see the ghoost busters tonight once more

I have seen pictures of the Fukushima after tragedy in the IEEE Spectrum magazine. Your MOC is illustrating the time just befor the disaster. I think it is very painful for the Japanese to comment your work.

Very nice design! Good recognizable shapes in so small scale!

Hi guys! Thank you all for the kind comments and constructive advices! Yes, it can be better to use dark pink color for the roof. But I am affraid that TLG does not produce the parts needed in that color. You will be surprised how many variants for the side awnings I have tried! Anyway I will continue thinking.

Lyalya Tulpan mosque ("Tulip in Bloom") Architect Series Facts Architect ............................................. Wakil Davlyatshin Construction Type ................................ Mosque Height ................................................. 53 m (174 ft.) Location .............................................. Ufa, Republic of Bashkortostan, Russia (Google maps) Materials ............................................. Steel, glass, plastic, concrete, stone Style ................................................... Hi-tech Year .................................................... 1989 - 1998 Story The Lyalya Tulpan means «Tulip in Bloom». The tulip is a favorite symbol of the Muslim world so it became a basis of architecture of this mosque. The mosque building is an opened flower, the two minarets which height is 53 meters (174 ft.) are resemble the closed buds on long stalks. The complex of these buildings symbolizes the beginning, origin, spring, nature and eternal belief. It is unique cult construction and has no analogues in the world. The architect of the project is Wakil Davlyatshin. It was built from steel, plastic, glass and stone and is a good example of hi-tech style. Mosque’s work is directed on relations strengthening of two religious faiths (Orthodoxy and Moslem). Lyalya Tulpan is a mosque-madrasah and carries out some extra functions at the same time - it is an educational center, Muslim temple and place of meetings of Muslim religious figures. The building can seat up to 1000 worshippers. Now the mosque is one of the main sights of the Ufa city. Architect Wakil Davlyatshin was born on March 10, 1949 in the USSR. He graduated as an architect from the Moscow Architect Institute. In 1988 he was offered to design the mosque for 1100 anniversary of Islamizing of Russia and Bashkiria. The work of gathering and the analysis of various sources on cult architecture including ancient and foreign has begun. The image of the future mosque was helped by impressions of trips to Bulgaria, Hungary, Greece, Germany, and Islamic regions - Turkey, the United Arab Emirates. In 1998 the construction was finished. The Lyalya Tulpan Mosque became the worthy ornament and the landmark of capital of Republic Bashkortostan. For this work Davlyatshin has been awarded by State award of name of Salavat Yulaev. Design the model The most challenging was to replicate the slopes of the building. The scale of the model is 1:480 and it is very tough problem. The Idea was to use tiles with ½ displacement. The nested triangles at the entrance are the most recognizable shapes. For the side awnings was chosen SNOT technique. The minarets have both sophisticated solid stone and floral like design because they symbolize the tulip's stalks. And the teeth are well representing sepals.
