Klaus-Dieter Posted August 20, 2009 Posted August 20, 2009 (edited) Hello everybody! Over the last weeks I have been working on a bigger MOC which I finished yesterday. Here you are: Vaudeville Visit the magic show in the vaudeville! From the outside: left side: stage, middle: auditorium, right side: entrance with hall: The outside of the hall and its inside: The auditorium: The balcony with the floodlights in the auditorium: The stage from its front: The magician's equipment: The auto-hoist with which the magician drives on the stage: The stage from behind: The performers' cloakroom: The stage direction: The stage elevator: The stage beside the main stage where the stage props are stored: Beneath the stage: Some more pics can be found in this folder (when public) of my BS gallery. Comments are welcome! Klaus-Dieter Edited August 21, 2009 by TheBrickster Quote
Milan Posted August 20, 2009 Posted August 20, 2009 Wow, I love those detailed and well organised buildings. Awesome design. Where is the audience? Quote
Etzel Posted August 20, 2009 Posted August 20, 2009 Wow, really good work Klaus-Dieter! It's a very big MOC and really well done. I really like how you have managed to include so much details but still keep the simple style of classic town. Truly impressive! The auditorium is just lovely and I especially like the cloakroom and stage direction. The outside is a little boring and maybe it could be improved with a big brick built sign or a mosaic on the wall. But on the other hand it's quite realistic with the big plain walls, surprisingly that's how many theatres look like on the outside despite their often much more interesting inside. Once again, great work! Quote
aawsum Posted August 21, 2009 Posted August 21, 2009 (edited) impressive looking at the outside, I would have never imagined that you could put all those details inside the building it is just magic. The design is well thought of. This would look great in every city. Edited August 21, 2009 by aawsum Quote
BlueBard Posted August 21, 2009 Posted August 21, 2009 Really nice MOC, specially because of all the interior details Quote
Klaus-Dieter Posted August 21, 2009 Author Posted August 21, 2009 Wow, I love those detailed and well organised buildings.Awesome design. Where is the audience? Thanks, Milan! Like (nearly) always I do not add minifigs to my regular MOCs since firstly many, many minifigs would be needed to make it looking good and realistic and since secondly when there are minifigs placed they conceal the view on other details. Wow, really good work Klaus-Dieter! It's a very big MOC and really well done. I really like how you have managed to include so much details but still keep the simple style of classic town. Truly impressive! The auditorium is just lovely and I especially like the cloakroom and stage direction. Thanks, Etzel! Yes, I wanted to include as much different for a vaudeville important rooms as possible. Nice to hear that you like it. The outside is a little boring and maybe it could be improved with a big brick built sign or a mosaic on the wall. But on the other hand it's quite realistic with the big plain walls, surprisingly that's how many theatres look like on the outside despite their often much more interesting inside. I firstly wanted to search for some poster of a movie or show in the internet, print it and then cleave it to the wall - but I must admit that I forgot it. Nevertheless you're right: today's buildings are often built in a very scant style - so this would fit here, too. impressivelooking at the outside, I would have never imagined that you could put all those details inside the building it is just magic. The design is well thought of. This would look great in every city. Thanks, aawsum! I totally agree with you: TLG made a great start with including the brilliant cinema in the awesome 10188 Town Plan - but a regular theater is still needed (even if it of course was only small)! Really nice MOC, specially because of all the interior details Thanks, BlueBard! I wanted to include as much interior as possible since I really dislike spartanic interior (like it's regrettably the case in some official sets - especially of City sets in the 70s-90s). Nice to hear that you like it. Klaus-Dieter Quote
squidman85 Posted October 22, 2009 Posted October 22, 2009 Excellent work!But in my opinion,cinema will be better,than magic show Quote
Inconspicuous Posted October 22, 2009 Posted October 22, 2009 But in my opinion,cinema will be better,than magic show Excuse me? Magic is the greatest thing in life (apart from Legos! ) Excellent MOC, Klaus. I love of the details like the mirrors in the cloak room and the trapdoor that the magician enters in. Good work! Quote
Stauder Posted October 22, 2009 Posted October 22, 2009 Very nicley done! I the details like the stage direction room, and the elevator! If you have time do take a few pics during a show And for my next trick I will make this cookie dissapear! *munch* *munch* *munch* *Crowd goes wild* Stauder. Quote
Enigma-85 Posted November 24, 2009 Posted November 24, 2009 (edited) A lot of LEGO City MOCs tend to go for extravagant, quaint, or classical external designs, which are fantastic but not particularly realistic. I mean, in my town there are no Roman columns, Gothic arches, thatched roofs, or anything of that sort... just big, largely plain, square buildings, built from concrete or bricks as cheaply as possible. I think you've captured that brilliantly (if yellowly... is that a word? Tis now) with this set, and I'd actually be interested to see somebody build an entire town in a more realistic style like this. Urban decay in LEGO form! As for the innards... just wow.
