MOC: Mission San Francisco Solano de Sonoma

[Commodore Hornbricker]

If you live in California you know that in the 4th grade you do a California Mission project complete with model. My daughter built this one with a little assistance from me. Sorry the photos aren't great quality.

I'm thinking she'll get an 'A' on that assignment. Nicely done! Love the roofing--

[Niku]

Interesting MOC, I like the combination of colors, the well placed trees and the atmosphere of peace, not to mention the roof and how well the white bricks made the walls.

I also love the fact of the mutual work between daughter and father, I hope you passed a great time together.

And hopefully too she gets an A+.

[Captain Heineken]

It's huge! Very well done.

I'd say some dad in California has got to be extremely proud of his daughter these days!!

I'm thinking she'll get an 'A' on that assignment.

I certainly hope so; it's an impressive build.

Perfect work Commodore!

The thing I like the most is that awesome roof!

[bombcar]

I remember building mine out of Lego, but not that well.

I also remember the teacher getting really mad at someone who knocked over a palm tree; I don't think she realized it could be put back easily.

This MOC is realy large! I need more photoes to look closer!

[JackJonespaw]

Looks great! I like the effect on the roof - very nice and detailed.

[Ecclesiastes]

Great moc! And as said before the roof is awesome. And even more with the size of the building. Also great job on al the action and details inside the walls!

[Hartfan]

Love this build. So big. Great work !

[Redhead1982]

That's really well done! It's obvious both of you enjoyed the build. My favourite is the garden in the back with all the trees, fruits, flowers and crops in the garden.

[Captain Green Hair]

What a great build, very nice!

It looks realistic and lively, I love all the little things that are happening in there.

Did she get a grade yet?

[Commodore Hornbricker]

Thanks for all the nice reply's. It was a lot of fun to build with her and to build again in general its been over a year since I built anything other than the new modular buildings by Lego. The model attracted a lot of positive attention at her school (most of the kindergarten through 4th grade boys have elevated her to god like status) and you'll all be happy to know she got an A+. My wife wanted to donate it to the Mission as a permanet display. I am thinking about it....its almost all my brown tiles on the darn roof, plus its gotta be around 10,000 pieces easy. Maybe a temporary display would be better .

Great build. Good team work.

I think a temporary display would suffice!

I'd certainly go for the latter.

If you put up a petition, let me know where to sign!

Great Moc, Congrats!

I think your wife doesn't want you have Legos

If I were you, I'll took a lot of pictures and that's it...
