[MOC] Ragge Runarson's business building

[LegoJalex]

This model was the third place winner in Swebricks LEGO competition "The city we built".

Here is (the badly translated) description I had for my model:

"Businesses had been bad for Ragge Runarson in the increasingly desolate little town. Because of the current recession, sales had fallen drastically and all of his employees had to quit. It was with mixed feelings that he was standing at the window of the office building and looking out over his lifework.

He remembers how he so happily rode to work every morning on his red bicycle. And he remembers the now broken cement mixer which he would use to finish cementing the walkway to the white cottage.

Soon, however, there would come a person who was interested in buying the building, so then Ragge could start all over again!"

Thats an awesome city block! I like the contrast between mantained and starting-to-fall-apart building. Oh and antenna rocks too!

[Mr Greeble]

Really nice! Sometimes it can be harder to make a very ramshackle lego building than a very precise, clean one.

This is refreshing. So different from the typical MOC. Love the white building.

Great work! The white building is the star of the scene, but I love the doors on the other buildings too!

[Cagast]

Amazing. Every part of it. :thumbup: :thumbup:

Excellent MOC! I love it - plenty of good details and some interesting textures on the facades. I especially like the ramshackle walls to the white cottage.

That white cottage is so beautifully dilapidated! Just great!

[Hobbythom]

Awesome build. So many cool details. Every angle is great to look at!

[LegoJalex]

Thanks for your comments! Glad you like it!

Awesome

The breaking siding on the white building is very cool, the whole thing is well done and looks very run down.

[happer]

Great job, all these little details make this MOC alive

[Kristel]

This is fantastic! Love the overall realism created by all the small details.

Brilliant effects, especially on the white building as others have said.

And pretty well translated, too :)
