  1. You're rght, it is. In fact this set has a lot of details, which suit very well with the HP spirit and atmosphere IMO.
  2. Just a small off topic, but here a pic (that I took this morning just for you Eurobrickers!) of the gaz station with a glass roof, which I mention before:
  3. Thanks Legocastlegirl for those pics! I think that I will buy it! Like you, I really like the greenhouse *wub*
  4. Thanks for those new pics! The fact that this set is a factory is very good, just thinking of the pieces we will be able to buy *sweet* , like those white streetlights! So sad that TLC uses trans minifig head and not trans-yellow, because all mine are trans-yellow *wacko*
  5. I think I have the solution, after looking attentively at those pics: it's a black owl with two black small antennas/control sticks... Can't wait to see more pics (and why not having it?... :-D )
  6. You don't understand, I didn't want to say that to make the floor taller in term of bricks, but to add one floor, the middle one... Anyway... Nice to see the original building and how you build it, it's really interesting to see how you capture the details. I will do this for my future houses, I think...
  7. Really nice sculptures! I especially like the red, yellow and the most, blue man! What a brillant idea, a man who is in LEGO build himself! This man is an artist! *y*
  8. :-$ After looking at your pics again, I find that the CC looks small. A second middle floor will not be too much IMO to have the same imposing presence than your BC... Just buy another CC and show us how that will look afterward :-D
  9. Thanks for the review KhoRne! *y* I will buy this set even if the truck is too big for me, just to have all the new city sets. Maybe I will downsize it, but I don't know how a green freight bed will look on a smaller truck. And why not puting one in the cargo boat? just put a plate base to close the freight and you can put a lot of fishes on it...
  10. Coudn't say it in a better way... The same for me! Personnaly, I don't like Hermione minifig for Hermione. I mean, her minifig doesn't have her feeling, she looks too old, and not like I imagine her reading the books... I know the HP sets are based on the movies. But I don't find her like in the movie, contrary to the Ron minifigs who is better done... And it's the same for the other HP women, maybe expect for the Umbridge one...
  11. No, I didn't do pics like that... But I've got big project... I will try to put a background in all my new pics... And for the pics of my town, I will try to have this catalog feeling when I will finish it... A new chapter of my city story will be written..
  12. Well, nothing special to say, just *y* ! It's a really nice building with so many details! I like the balcony fences, really great! And even if I have never been to the States, it has an american feeling, like buildings that I have seen in lot of pics from your country. Maybe it will be better to put your Brown Condo just next to CC and don't let 2 studs... Really nice work! Just a little bad think, a red and dark grey car will suit better than your white car :-D !
  13. Thanks! :-$ I hope that I will take the time to make a new map like that for my city'07. But I doubt, not so many times those days... Maybe 07 will be 08... I think that it's nice to have pics of our mocs, so we can see the evolution in the time, after 1-2 years... And I understand what you want to do with your LEGOREDO, because it's what I do with my city: mix official sets will mocs, to have a layout that can be taken for a LEGO catalog... Now we are waiting to see your so promizing pics of your WW city... And for your choice of the station style, I think that it's the good one. The station looks like what we have in the Lucky Luck comic strip. So this is the idea I have for how a WW train station looks like :-P
  14. What can I said that have not already been said... The artwork of your pics is just perfect, I didn't expected less from you. I have to say that I didn't buy any of the WW sets. Not that I don't like them, but I was too young to buy all the sets I wanted. And one of my friend collected them, so I discovered the theme with him, he let me building those sets and playing with them. It was a "by proxy" theme for me. And know, I regret not having some sets of this line. This friend is always mine, but he is not decided to give me his collection to shwo me its friendship! Back on your moc BM! This set has a really LEGO touch, so I will not be astonnished to see this set on shelves. I really like all the details you put on this moc, with all the different parts that add a lot of playability. In the trainstation, the white arches give a nice "metallic structure" touch. So maybe a white stair will be better, maybe... The figs selection are really good, with nice custom torsos. The train is nice too, maybe the space between the two bogies is too empty, like others said. And maybe some stickers on the side of the cylinder part of the train will be good (with the same style of the stickers which can be found in the My own train locos). The other wagons are very good as well. I like how you have integrated the city train logo! And the colour sheme is really nice! And the pony car is quite simple but it's a nice addition. So all the elements give this moc its general LEGO feeling! I confirm, it's a really good moc, just keep this track for your next creation! And you are not as different as city fan, you try to make some buildings that are needed in the human society. Just the architecture and the design change... *y*
  15. *sad* They are not all like that... But this problem of money will take end in few month for me (hope), I'm a futur ex-student, a new worker on the hard job market...
  16. Nice house, better than your old red/yellow fachwerkhouse! And the interior details add a lot to the general moc. Even if the house is closed, when you know that there are some things to show inside, the house looks more "complete" from the outdoor (It's what I feel, don't laugh at me :-$ ) Now we are waiting for the next house and the layout...

    Sleepers...

    I think that more dark grey willbe better, with light grey, black and brown touch as well. And maybe some round studded bricks will look better than square one... But I have no pics to show you what I think... :-/
  18. I hesitated with the version without windshield, but it was a little too "un-civilan" :-D
  19. Don't make generality! In my Leclerc (a French supermarket), the gaz station is made by a metallic structure in Y and between the arms of the Y, there are some glass. It's a really beautifull gaz station (most of the time, they are just practicle, without a touch of architecture).
  20. So I wait for your modified verions Sne and Hobbes, that sounds good mods... :-)
  21. I voted for Hinckley39's Two-Seater Convertible. Even if I don't want 6-wide cars in official LEGO set, I have to admit that the Hinckley's car is nice, with good proportion. I like how the back looks. The only think I find strange is the colour of the hear of your minifig Hinckley... I thought that it was fair and not black, regarding your avatar, idon't know why... There are some other cars that I like: - the Smart really looks like in real, so small with the bi-coloured parts. - Yoda, you have made a nice "Pimp my ride" version of the 6584 pick-up :-D . The all black and chrome scheme is really nice!
  22. I never succeed in making a Rubik's Cube 8-| And a so simple robot does it so easily?! *wacko* Maybe that means the NXT brick is more intelligent than... No! I mean I hope... :-D Nice found too!
  23. Thanks Cabby for this review which I was wainting for! Nice pics! Me too, but the 7990 is already a good one for an official LEGO set. So I will buy it (without esitation, like all the new city sets :-D (when I will find them on shelves, hard to wait...) The colour scheme is really nice. It will be nice to have the same set in different colours, like in yellow or in green, to make other cement companies.
  24. Oh! Now I know why I choose her! I can't put my finger on why her before your explanation! :-D My second choice is the Alpine Mountain Fortress Princess, the only princess I have (I had stolen her from a friend who has the Lion castle with her when I was a young boy 8-| :-$ ...)
