lightningtiger Posted July 12, 2015 Posted July 12, 2015 Well, it's been a little while since I have come up with a fresh MOC and this one is totally out of my norm.......NO STICKERS ! Everything is brick built including the sign, it has a plumbing department to the left and to the right digging tools. Soon a dump bin type of display will have paint rollers on sale in it. It's also different for me not to do something Aussie or to tile the interior floor. The name is just a common one used around the world for hardware stores, the brick built sign is basically two h's back to back. Keep watching for more is to come. Quote
Kristel Posted July 12, 2015 Posted July 12, 2015 Nice! I like the angled walls next to the entrance and the toilet seats in the plumbing section. Quote
lightningtiger Posted July 12, 2015 Author Posted July 12, 2015 Nice! I like the angled walls next to the entrance and the toilet seats in the plumbing section. Thanks 'Kristel', I actually designed this set to be more City Set like than my normal Aussie builds.....I'm waiting for the approval from Ideas for this one to go up. Keep watching as I said more to come. Quote
gazumpty Posted July 13, 2015 Posted July 13, 2015 Nice design LT... I also like the way you have achieved the inverted slopes at the entrance doors. I've always wondered how a suspended ceiling system...or exposed service pipes , structure, etc would look in your builds. Almost like a cross section through the store you have built be cool to see your take on it! Quote
Mestari Posted July 13, 2015 Posted July 13, 2015 Those toilet seats do look good (I know it sounds weird...) Quote
Captain Braunsfeld Posted July 13, 2015 Posted July 13, 2015 Already looking good - though it needs to be finished (stickers?) Quote
Bennemans Posted July 14, 2015 Posted July 14, 2015 The blue displays look very nice! Did you design the blue phallic logo yourself or is it based on something? Quote
lightningtiger Posted July 14, 2015 Author Posted July 14, 2015 Ha, everyone this is a sticker free build for a change and the fact that my printer is totally off-line at the moment. Doh ! The blue sign is based on similar looking signs for hardware store using the word 'home' as well in their name. Now I have built models with ceiling/roof combos in the past but cost factors blow them out of the water hence the last spent on roofs and ceilings the more I can spend on smaller etails that sell the idea of what the MOC is. Thanks to everyone's kind words, etc.,. Actually this might not be the last HH store design so keep watching ! Quote
lightningtiger Posted July 16, 2015 Author Posted July 16, 2015 It finally got the nod on Ideas.....https://ideas.lego.com/projects/108821 I'm still planning more builds to join this one, keep watching ! Quote
lightningtiger Posted July 24, 2015 Author Posted July 24, 2015 Wow, not one of my best efforts on Ideas, only 23 supports in 7 days. I might be planning a rebuild into a bigger version. Keep watching everyone ! Quote
