peedeejay Posted March 20, 2021 Posted March 20, 2021 (edited) I would like to share my 14th modular building. 5598 parts / building instruction is available at: https://rebrickable.com/users/peedeejay/mocs/ This is most likely my fastest modular up to date. Took me only roughly 2 weeks to finish after my last building. I was building the digital design while waiting for the delivery of the parts for the post office. ;-) A rather simple facade this time, even though the SNOT'ed brackets were a bit of a challenge, especially when trying to connect the facade to the other walls. Most of the time however was invested into the details of the antique shop to build all the details and figure out which kind of parts I was going to use. The upper levels contain an apartment. I had a lot of fun building a children's room (I honestly don't know why I never built one before...). Here is a selection of images. All of them can be found on Flickr.

The Island Chronicles Posted March 20, 2021 Posted March 20, 2021 (edited) Nice! I've always loved town MOCs that involved town matter we don't see so much from Lego. I may actually build one of those but on a smaller scale. Edited March 31, 2021 by Poodabricks Quote
The Neighborhood Merchant Posted March 21, 2021 Posted March 21, 2021 Gorgeous design! I love how much life is in this build. Quote
Carbohydrates Posted March 22, 2021 Posted March 22, 2021 You must have had a ton of fun with all the mini builds here. The detailing is perfect, and the contrast of the cluttered ground floor against the sleek, modernized apartment looks great. Quote
TheAbsoluteSt81 Posted March 25, 2021 Posted March 25, 2021 I love it! The details are really cool, reminds me of some of the antique shops near me Quote
that_lego_builder Posted March 25, 2021 Posted March 25, 2021 This would look good with my 3 other Modulars. Quote
MAVERICK26 Posted March 31, 2021 Posted March 31, 2021 I love all the 'random trinkets you have in there! What were your inspirations? Do you plan to submit this to LEGO IDEAS anytime soon? Quote
snaillad Posted April 5, 2021 Posted April 5, 2021 Very nice use of colour! Really like the antique furniture and those radiators! Quote
Vilhelm22 Posted April 6, 2021 Posted April 6, 2021 Love it! The exterior design is brilliant, and the interior reminds of many antique shops or similar round me. I feel like the wool jumper torso is also a perfect choice as the sort of person who owns those shops tends to be of that sort of generation..... Quote
peedeejay Posted April 6, 2021 Author Posted April 6, 2021 Thanks again everyone! On 3/31/2021 at 2:13 PM, MAVERICK26 said: I love all the 'random trinkets you have in there! What were your inspirations? Do you plan to submit this to LEGO IDEAS anytime soon? I never put my modulars on LEGO Ideas for two simple reasons. First, even if a build reaches 10k supporters I think it would never pass review and second, my builds always use way too many pieces. ;-) My inspiritation this time was just another random building in my home town that was popping out a little bit due to it's color scheme. I very roughly mirrored the facade and went freestyle from there, which is bascially what I do all the time. Here is an image from the building that inspired me: http://kawano.de/LEGO/Antique_Shop/antique_shop_inspiration.png Quote
