Josh Posted December 10, 2008 Posted December 10, 2008 (edited) Hi have started on the brothel for the EBCCB and have a question! Whilst trying to design away to make this look like a brothel from the outside I came up with an idea to try and make a semi naked woman!However the way I want to place this on the outside of the building I am not sure if it is breaking the rules so I thought I better ask before I go any further! Let me know what you think!I have since found some grey hinges for the doors so dont worry about the black ones in there at the moment! I hope they have been resized enough!!

LOL its not the nudity I was thinking about its the actual amount the figurehead(for want of a better word) sticks out that concerns me as it it isnt in the size of the building regulations! Quote
I Scream Clone Posted December 10, 2008 Posted December 10, 2008 (edited) Thanks for the info Sinner. Josh, the interior/inside castle walls of the building can overlap the baseplate as there is castle grounds throughout the interior. I have no problem with the overlap. Though once you get your ideas sorted out, could you post the final product into your Team's thread. I have placed you into Team Alpha Group Build Topic this stops the boards being overrun by all our creations Good luck with the build, cant wait to see the final product.

Sandy Posted December 10, 2008 Posted December 10, 2008 That building is so Las Vegas... But the whole EB Community Castle town is full of strange houses, so I think this one will blend right in. It could use a few more windows, though. Quote
The Penguin Posted December 10, 2008 Posted December 10, 2008 It could use a few more windows, though. Does that kind of place actually need many windows? ) To my mind that is a bit... disturbing, but the author has the right to make it the way he wishes it to be.... Quote

LOL I was just trying to stick with the "theme park" theme a few of the other members had done already!!I am going to try (but it is proving difficult) and make themed rooms inside ie maybe an egyptian girl and room ,pirate girl and room and forestmen girl and room!!

Sounds really good! )))) Well, your section sure looks promissing, but still I'd somehow change the statue, not to make our fair ladies here blush.... ) But anyway, great job! ) Quote
Thrash Posted December 10, 2008 Posted December 10, 2008 Haha, I love it. I can't wait to see the finished product. I'm glad that you've been working on it, too. No one had posted in the main thread for a while, so I'm glad to see that at least one person has been working hard on their entry. I should have 2 more entries up this weekend, too :) ~Thrash Quote
Holy Diver Posted December 11, 2008 Posted December 11, 2008 I like signs I don't have to read. Quote
hewkii9 Posted December 11, 2008 Posted December 11, 2008 Looks very nice, but may I suggest you mottle some tan into your figurehead, to make it look more like stone? Cause I doubt the medieval pimp hires a naked giantess to stand there for hours on end :P And another suggestion - extend the legs down to frame the doorway perhaps? Quote

Haha but they did have paint right and wood carvers?I was thinking about how I could do that to make it spread legged but that would probably really offend the female's on here LOL!Stuff it I will do it anyway,you have twisted my arm!!

I guarantee you that you can't possibly make that building any more offensive towards women, no matter what you add to it. I mean, it's a brothel, for cripes' sakes! The only thing you can do to make up for it is to add some delicious male prostitutes... Quote

LOL Sandy I suppose your right!Maybe the Robin Hood room can have the male Pro. in it! Anyways sorted out the design for the big girl out the front and some stuff inside!!I am going to call this place Madame Lashes! I have made most of the first floor now and the stairs going up to the Wall on the outside of the building!Inside you can see a rack with some sex toys on it a small table for the punters to have a quick drink and the main counter where Madam Lash will serve from!Outside there is a Troll for the bouncer dude!

The Penguin Posted December 11, 2008 Posted December 11, 2008 Well, Josh, I guess that's it.... Don't you think that's a bit too much? Sure some ideas are fairly good, but it's really quite insulting. I am not a sanctimonious person, but I guess that it should not be that vulgar.... Good day, gentlemen! ) Quote

Lighten up Penguin!!!!Which parts do you like? the bits that look the same as everyone elses MOC! If I have overstepped the mark here can someone with any authority tell me so please!

Dragonator Posted December 11, 2008 Posted December 11, 2008 I think it's fine, I'm all for a bit of free minded thinking as long as it is meant in good jest and is not designed to offend. But a hammer!? They must sure get up to some... interesting... things in there. I think the woman is very well designed, even if the taste is a little vulgar. You know, her legs and pants remind me a bit of a sumo wrestler for some reason, but I see crazy things like that everywhere. Nice job so far, it'll be interesting to see how this turns out. I do have one small suggestion, it would be good if you could do something with the ledges above the inside windows (the ones left by the castle wall panels). They look a bit dull just sitting there, perhaps a shelf with booze or something? Quote

LOL at the Hammer!I guess some people might have a hammer fetish, maybe the blacksmith! If you look in the first pic. it actaully supports a walkway heading for another set of steps which are going to lead to the second floor!I just took it off so you could see behind the bar abit! I am not trying to offend anyone with this build just trying to have a laugh with it thats all!Hopefully the themed rooms will take a bit of heat away from the grand entrance LOL!It is going to be pretty high with the three rooms added I am trying to make them detachable like some others have done!its not something I have done before so it will take abit of time working it all out!I am glad i can go out the front more which I plan on doing so the rooms are bigger! Stay tuned for the next update! Quote

If I have overstepped the mark here can someone with any authority tell me so please! Well, I do respect your choice and way of building such a controversial thing as a brothel. And I may even confess that I find it rather amuzing, but free minded thinking © is not the same thing as dissoluteness. You may think that I'm old-fashioned, but I suppose that some principles of morality shoud remain unaltered.... Good day, gentlemen! ) Quote

Good day, gentlemen! ) Just incase you didnt know this was one of the buildings on the list to be built,so someone else thought of the whole brothel idea bfore I decided to make it!I only really chose it because most other things already had someone else building it if not two people so i figured i may as well take the ugly duckling and give it a shot!Also the the whole idea of the statue out front was just to try and go along with the "Theme Park" theme others had done already which I thought was good idea as you new what the build was meant to be!I honestly am not out to offend anyone truly and if I get more complaints i am happy to scrap it altogether! Anyway I got a couple of the rooms in!I think I am going to take it to bits tomorrow and try and mixe up the gray and black abit so its not so boring looking on the outside so much!I blinged up the back wall a bit so the guards know where they're at in the castle , I also thought I may add a door to the wall outback just incase a guard or two feels the need!Let me know what you think or any ideas you may have that may help!

Captain Green Hair Posted December 11, 2008 Posted December 11, 2008 Wow, this is the funniest thread i've all day! Lookin' good there Josh, keep it up! Quote
Sandy Posted December 11, 2008 Posted December 11, 2008 Come on guys, whatever your principles may be, this is LEGO we're talking about; little plastic bricks. If you get seriously offended or disgusted by them, then that's your problem. By all means, continue with what you're doing, Josh, this is too fun to pass up! Quote
Thrash Posted December 11, 2008 Posted December 11, 2008 Hahaha, this thread gets better by the hour. I absolutely love the rack of sex toys. A couple of the items are pretty kinky, or just downright disturbing. When I suggested that the Brothel be on the list, I never imagined that it would be such a masterpiece. Can't wait to see more pictures! ~Thrash Quote

Well, I guess you got me wrong.... I do like your MOC and your attitude to it. Indeed, you've done a good job with it. ) No doubt here. And I'd also like to see more later, but what I'm talking about is that, in my mind, you should dot get too exited with that topic here.... That kind of thing is very delicate one and may offend other people's feelings.... That's all. ) P.S. It does not offend my feelings, as some of you might have thought, I'm just thinking of others. ) And I'm glad it seems that no one's been offended as yet here.... ) Good day, gentlemen! ) Quote
