Blake Baer Posted June 24, 2011 Posted June 24, 2011 Hello all! I am taking a break from my normal historic creations, and decided to expand my horizons to city. This is my first City MOC since I came to the community so I am a little tentative to hear your response. Anyhow, I won't bore you, and instead I will just show you the MOC. NOTE: All pics link to MOCpages though this can also be found on Flickr Link to Flickr: http://www.flickr.com/photos/baericks/ Anyhow thanks for viewing, and I would appreciate hearing what you think! MOCpage has much more pictures as well as some stats and descriptions about it. ~Blake Quote
rriggs Posted June 24, 2011 Posted June 24, 2011 All your minfigures appear to have gone a bit fleshy..... The hotel looks great. The retail units below the entrance level are really nice and the greebling at the top of the hotel looks fab. Great job. Cheers Rog Quote
Eating TV Posted June 24, 2011 Posted June 24, 2011 Looks great! I love the foyer windows (too bad there doesn't actually seem to be a foyer or reception). Great levels, very nice architecture. Quote
tharris147 Posted June 24, 2011 Posted June 24, 2011 I love the logo for the hotel. Overall a great hotel. Quote
lightningtiger Posted June 24, 2011 Posted June 24, 2011 AWESOME 'Blake Baer', excellent use of window pieces - very art deco inspired and a fantastic fore court to the hotel including your bank and cafe....very busy too - plenty of action ! Keep them comming and Brick On 'Blake Baer' ! Quote
Blake Baer Posted June 24, 2011 Author Posted June 24, 2011 Thank you all for you feedback and encouragement! All your minfigures appear to have gone a bit fleshy..... Haha Rog, you are correct. In as much as I like yellows, Fleshies retain some element of realism. Looks great! I love the foyer windows (too bad there doesn't actually seem to be a foyer or reception). Great levels, very nice architecture. Thank you! Agreed, If I were to do this MOC over again, I would redo the interiors. I found it to be much more cramped than I wanted it. Quote
L@go Posted June 24, 2011 Posted June 24, 2011 I really, really like this - the lovely details, the colour combinations, everything! As others have already pointed out, that window arrangement is very nice, the sign is wonderful and the roof of the bank is different - in a good way. Still, I keep coming back to the small details, particularly the use of that towball piece for an easel and the parts combination for that yellow baby stroller. Great work! (But why has the ice cream seller gone sour?) Quote
XimenaPaulina Posted June 25, 2011 Posted June 25, 2011 This is certainly a very impressive build Blake, I really like the unique layout of the outside of the hotel, particularly the stairs sandwiched by the bank and cafe establishments. The brickbuilt signage and the clever white window-work are truly great details on this elegant-looking building. Excellent job! Quote
LEGO Train 12 Volts Posted June 25, 2011 Posted June 25, 2011 Ooooh amazing MOC! The banner on the front wall, the big window and the awning are beautiful! I like impressive the marble step! Thanks for sharing Quote
Toadtorrent Posted June 25, 2011 Posted June 25, 2011 This is excellent. The SNOT banner is great...the levels are executed amazingly with the below street level shop access...very clever. I really like your yellow stroller/pram. Quote
Bricks2000 Posted June 25, 2011 Posted June 25, 2011 That's pretty darn good, Blake Baer! All your minfigures appear to have gone a bit fleshy..... The hotel for pale people... Quote
jth781 Posted June 25, 2011 Posted June 25, 2011 Great Hotel I would love to have that in my LEGO City. Quote
Fuzzylegobricks Posted June 26, 2011 Posted June 26, 2011 Very wonderful starter! Welcome to our nice little town, the sign is definitely a huge attention gatherer. Quote
LEGO Guy Bri Posted June 27, 2011 Posted June 27, 2011 Awesome MOC 'BB'. This is absolutely great. The level of detail makes this really stand out. Top notch job, keep up the great work Quote
LegoCityMann Posted June 28, 2011 Posted June 28, 2011 so many details in suck a small space. Absolutely beautiful. ~LCM Quote

wizkid Posted June 28, 2011 Posted June 28, 2011 Nice MOC! I like seeing you having a break from historic MOCS! Quote
Man with a hat Posted June 28, 2011 Posted June 28, 2011 Wow, this is good. You put a lot of nice details in it. I really like this setup with the stairs. And you have hidden some nice things under there! Quote
