The kitchen
-
My secret is to put the tile on a larger plate, and put the sticker on the tip of a small knife. Very easy to align them correctly that way.

I made some changes to the roof greenhouse. Humorously enough, this is what started me building this house.

I figured that having a Dutch mother I should probably try to make a Dutch-style house. This is primarily made from 2x 31065 and 1x 31050. I decided to incorporate brighter friends colors along with the parts from those sets. I already had a bunch of the tan quarter circles on either side of the skylight. Beyond that I started working on the recessed window idea which was inspired by something Barrie Crossan made; although mine is constructed differently. The right side will be left open so you can see the interior; considering this will sit next to other modulars its not that big of a deal. The white bit on the left has the stairs to access the second floor.

One would hope they improved the technic substructure because the current one ends up with issues it you motorized all day while at shows.

1920's ocean liner "RMS Acadia" (micro-scale ship MOC)
gotoAndLego replied to Murdoch17's topic in Special LEGO Themes
I always love ship scale models and yours is quite nice. Looking forward to the finished photos. Did you investigate using the curved slopes on their sides for the white bow and stern? -
This puts the fun in funicular.

Our FIRST ever MOC- Police Station Modular *UPDATED*
gotoAndLego replied to swisstony's topic in LEGO Town
Looks better...but since your modifying it I have another suggestion. It's still really flat on the front, what about moving the front entrance (the ridged 2x2 cylinders, doors, and sign) out one stud. You could even bring the center of that first row of 1x2 ridged bricks out as well. Also, the hat on the third floor is not centered vertically in the space. Either move it down or add some additional police stuff below it to fill up the white area and add some complexity. -
[MOC] 24 BMW R 1200GS
gotoAndLego replied to andrepinto's topic in LEGO Technic, Mindstorms, Model Team and Scale Modeling
While it is very good, the lines of the tank are wrong. It is missing the hump which makes the tank look like a tank. I noticed that this is the water cooled boxer engine. Good solution for the jugs and nice farkles on the handlebars. -
How do you expert builders begin to design and build a modular building?
gotoAndLego replied to JLSD's topic in LEGO Town
The hardest part are the architectural elements That will define the front of your building. Concentrate on those, build one floor, than the next, then refine them so they have a cohesive design. Building the rest of the building is easy. I always keep the building out where I am for a month or so because all that time spent looking at it will make you adjust the design as you get new ideas for parts usage. -
How do you display your modular building collection?
gotoAndLego replied to yanathin's topic in LEGO Town
I'm conflicted about this, because while it's nice for everyone else, I'd just see the backs. Maybe you need a larger desk so you can have double rows of modulars. -
Looks good. Reminds me of classic town.
-
Detective Office because that is the lower side which lets you see more of the restaurant's patio.

Brickset as well.

Our FIRST ever MOC- Police Station Modular *UPDATED*
gotoAndLego replied to swisstony's topic in LEGO Town
Yeah, the sand blue tiles. I feel like you also need to work the vertical ridged bricks into the third floor because right now it doesn't look like it belongs. -
There are a lot of great details in here, like the recessed red bricks on the front and the olive green 1x1 plates on the back. Especially in the tan tower, I like the roof with the lower dark tan center, but I think the four white round tiles look better than the half rounds on the second floor because they repeat the four round white plates. I also like what is going on below the first floor tan windows on the right. The support for the trans awning on the left is great. I think this would fit well next to the Detective Office set, which I really liked, because they have a similar general structure.

You don't have a lot for your town so unless you plan on doing some heavy purchasing in a short amount of time there reall isnt anything to plan right now. You haven't even touched on what kinds of things will be in your town; are they going to be creator sets or modular buildings? If modular how quickly will you be buying them? Planning a town for a bunch of modulars and MOCs is going to look empty when you only have two modulars a couple of houses and a few cars. Why not build a small layout and move around until you are happy, then change it up when you get more stuff.

Love it, Beyond the nice irregular shapes I like your tailor signage and flowerbeds.

I remember the Toys shop from the first Modular Madness contest.
