  1. Might I suggest you build them in such a way that you can remove one or more walls to better photograph the interior. I left one side of my last MOC, the GO! Scooter shop open because it would save bricks and you don't see that when up against another modular. You can always use those big trans-clear panels to seal it.
  2. The red and black combination and sign looks very good.
  3. Many of the photos look horizontally scaled down so they look squished a bit. When I tap on the photos themselves they ar fine so its just how Eurobricks is displaying them.
  4. It looks great and is really big. I like the giraffes in the front window, they add a lot of p[op to what could otherwise be kind of dull. I also like your bookshelf. Something weird with your photos that a lot fo them are horizontally squished. It's also a great way to use up all the props and odd pieces you have lying around. ?
  5. Sorry, just saw this. Thanks for the kind words everyone. That bike was in the Captain America polybag 30447.
  6. Not really, but Lego does Black Friday sales on everything.
  7. Thanks guys. I have more interior shots on the FLickr link.
  8. Really wonderful. I like how the 1-wide tiles look instead of 2x2 tiles on the first floor interior. My only criticism is that the first floor looks too short when compared to the second.
  9. I finished up the building and finally got around to taking photos. As you can see from the hive on the back deck the owners of the apartment are into bees. The back garage, scooter display, and some of the shop were made from the Crooks Island set.
  10. What's interesting is that Nijago City is designed to connect to the modular buildings.
  11. Greg, I've been over twice for the TT and Manx GP and ridden around a fair bit. A good friend and his family live in Port Erin. Where on the island do you live?
  12. I know it's a tiny thing, but I like the Newsstand.
  13. Regarding the icicles, what about using those bent droid arm style pieces you see holding up the spoilers on the speed champion sets connected to something on the roof?
  14. I really like it, especially the way the top floor is separated from the bottom. Three things: 1. The bottom floor looks a little top-heavy, try to move the windows up one brick so there is more space above than below. 2. Having the white roof snow and the white walls looks a little confusing; it makes it look like the walls are covered in snow. I wonder how a different color on the bottom would look. I think this will be even more aparrant when your display diorama has snow on the ground outside the buildings. 3. Have you considered adding some icicles? Both those suggestions are purely subjective and it really does look nice the way it is.
  15. There is a danger in trying to cram too many details and techniques into a facade; your buildings have a good balance. One suggestion would be to try move the S and T in Posta one plate closer together. Otherwise everything looks great.
  16. Excellent job. Nice use of the crowbars.
  17. I see what you mean, but consider working on the front and rear overhangs. You could even run the overhang back to the hinge point and make it one plate higher than the back and use tiles so everything clears while open. Currently it looks like a building with a top instead of a building with a roof.
  18. I dont think it matters that the houses aren't super detailed because it works really well as a cohesive scene. I like the power line tower and the trees, esp the spikes pine tree.
  19. It's a great start but the roof needs some work. It doesn't look like a distinct roof because there isnt an overhang and the colors blend together.
  20. The GBHQ is such a big and great parts pack that's you are bound to be able use if for nice MOC. If you make a middle building, l,Ike this one, you could easily use the tan panels and bricks for the sides so it will be taller; those sides are only seen when you take the floors off. I had so much fun making my condo high rise for the set that I'm tempted to pick up a second one to make something else; that would be cheaper than bricklinking all the extra parts I would need. Heck I could use it to make my highrise even higher. LOL.
  21. Love this, what a great build.
  22. I had to reload the page once or twice.
  23. It's an impressive build you have there, but in my opinion it still doesn't have the shape down; it's too blunt nosed and bumpy. Most Sith Interceptor MOCs have the same problem as well. I like that it is a play set and a USC display model. Have you considered using the new corner slopes which are in the Speed Champions sets? Or maybe wing plates and ball joints like on the front of the new UCS Snowspeeder.
  24. I see both sides of this and a good compromise would be if your post also had photos and text for people who don't want to see the external link videos. I would feel the same way about posts which were just a Flickr link.
