Love the look of this modular!  Bought the instructions.  I had about 80% of the parts already and purchased most of the remaining needed. Looking forward to the parts arriving so me and my daughter can start building it!

Thanks very much for buying the instructions. Would love to see some pictures when you've completed the build. So far I've not seen any photos from anyone who has actually built the model.

I stumbled on these images whilst browsing online earlier today.

These are the first pics I've seen from anyone who has built the Post Office using real bricks.

Adding to a long list of positive comments, this MOC is simply excellent. I like the exterior, the interior, the presentation, color scheme and everything else. It's cleverly designed and one can see a story in the presentation. I wouldn't mind owning and building it as a set.

Thanks a lot for the kind comment. Glad you like it.

Oh cool someone finally finished the bills with real bricks. It looks great. Looks like it would flow naturally with most of the official modulars too.

I saw a post on one of my Facebook groups showing a real build of this too. It is awesome. I still have to buy bricks to build mine.

 

On another side note the creator of that build you showed seems to be selling it on Bricklink?

I hadn't realised it was for sale on bricklink. I found those images just from doing a google image search.

After seeing Mister Phes frontpage this thread more than a year after it was created...

Simply gorgeous ...I can't say if the characters are the best thing or if it's the architecture!

The attention to detail is obsessive ...amazing work!

  I was surprised to see it featured for a second time on the front page too.

I’ve been a long time lurker and this build has made me a first time poster!  I finished this in the brick last week.  The degree of detail is incredible and the color palate is very pleasing.  Can’t say enough great things about your work and am anxiously awaiting your English Pub instructions.  Thanks so much for sharing your talent and hard work!!  Greatly appreciated!!

I know I'm late to the party, and I probably told you this over on flickr, but this is stunning as always. Great job!

Thanks very much indeed. I'm glad you enjoyed building the model and that you're pleased with the finished result. That's great to hear.  The Queen Bricktoria Pub instructions will be ready soon.

What a great creation! Perfect in every detail!

[Brick Extreme]

Finally completed and integrated into Crazy Town

Most significant modification was to shift the post office back two dots and the fish & chips forward two dots to align more closely to the buildings on either side. Removed one set of windows on the right side of the post office to make this work.

A few other minor changes based on part limitations: i.e. different colored umbrella, 87552 instead of 4864a, 2540 used brown instead of reddish brown, Front door is the only red door - substituted different colors for internal.

My daughter and I had a lot of fun building this together.
