Posted March 26, 20204 yr After a few digital MOCs lately, it was a blast to actually build with real LEGO bricks. This MOC started as a concept back in October 2019 and was put aside while working on my previous released MOCs. Finally took the time to finish it up, main feature of the MOC must be the roof technique I guess. No nets were used, this is achieved by clipping various bits on flex tubes across the roof line.

March 26, 20204 yr I saw this on Flickr. Very cool build! I like the roof a lot. Gives some good inspiration for me.
March 26, 20204 yr This is very nice. I thought the roof was achieved by using nets. Seems that it's not. Would you be willing to share a picture on part of the process with flextubes? Thanks a lot in advance

Indeed, the whole roof is constructed with clips on flextubes. this is actually the only picture I took of the roof in WIP stage: Edited March 28, 20204 yr by Perterz
March 27, 20204 yr Excellent build. I like the way the part with the window leans outward. The roof is great, and really nice texturing with the walls. The pathway is neat, and the landscaping is nice with all the plates and plant pieces.

But be carefull, it’s trial and error and frustrating sometimes as some parts could be fragile while constructing it.

April 8, 20204 yr Amazing. I'm always impressed by these cottages with irregular structure, leaning walls and crooked roof. Thanks for sharing the roof detail, it's really good to see how it's done. I guess it's not so stable to move around?

While building there were fragile parts in the walls but they became stable while building the roof. The flextubes across tje roof added a lot to the stability of the build. I moved the finished MOC from my building area downstairs to my closet upstairs and it was the tree that was the least stable part of the MOC, the house stood strong.
