Winter Village: Ski Rental Shop

[PenguinoMF]

With all of the snow that falls around the Winter Village an ambitious entrepreneur, Frank, decided it was the perfect opportunity to open a local ski rental shop.

It looks like construction finished just in time for the winter season.

Frank greets his very first customers. It is Julie and her son David. David sure does look excited.

David looks like he is ready to go while Mom is taking her time getting ready. First time skiing? Maybe she is nervous.

As we open up the shop we can see Frank trying to keep warm by drinking hot chocolate by the wood burning stove. Looks like he was preparing for the cold winters when he designed the building.

Frank is fully stocked with kids skis, adult skis, poles, and helmets.

During his down time Frank keeps himself busy by chopping wood. Hopefully it will be a long winter and he will need a lot of firewood to keep warm.

Wow, that's amazing 'PenguinoMF'! I really like the roof. Keep up the great work!

The roof looks very neat! It is amazing the shop can be opened up.

[Kristel]

Nice entry! I like how you've done the roof and also how the shop opens up.

Great build with very nice details like a bench for getting ready/returning the wares, opening up for better playability, a hearth to get warm and wood chopping area to stay warm. It fits right in and lets minifigures join the skiers from past years sets.

Good luck in the contest.

Great concept! Maybe a little snow on the roof would bring out the winter spirit. Nice to see the inside.

What an well executed design! I love the roof, the details and the fact that it opens.

Nicely done and good luck in the competition.

Great creation PenguinoMF. I like how you've added to the playability of it by opening it up. Would be great with snow on the roof. Good luck in the comp.

That's lovely, every atmospheric -- it takes me right back to winter holidays past ...

Fantastic and original entry! I love that roof technique looks amazing! And I also like how the shop opens up, very clever designing there.

Good luck and happy building

Great build, I like how it opens up! Nice detail remembering a lamp by the door as well.

Thanks for the comments. As for the no snow on the roof issue I couldn't figure out a way that I was happy with. Let's just blame it on poor insulation of the building and it caused it to melt.

Wow great MOC!

The inner details are perfect!

I like the stone roof and the hatchet on the chopping block is a nice touch!
