lisqr Posted April 21, 2012 Posted April 21, 2012 B-OV-30C After building the Tower Bridge, I felt like doing something similar to that style. So I was going to build a section of the Westminster Palace. But I underestimated the amount of bricks it takes to just do a 2x3 building. So I cut it down a bit. Still in that style, but simplified a little. The Westminster Palace looks like a big cardboard box from a far. So it gives me this idea of building my building in panels. So it's easier to carry around. All 4 sides come off. 4 sides sit on the base and then are locked together with technic pins (forgot to take pic of the pins). The side towers and the roof then sets on top of it. The roof is built with a technic frame. Quote
AwesomeStar Posted April 21, 2012 Posted April 21, 2012 Wow, it's lovely! Royally brilliant -A.S. Quote
Calanon Posted April 21, 2012 Posted April 21, 2012 This is a pretty awesome moc, it looks wonderful and I like what you've done to make it easier to move too! Quote
purpleparadox Posted April 21, 2012 Posted April 21, 2012 Woah. That's beautiful! I love everything about it, it's got really great detailing. Any interior? Quote
LEGOfan123 Posted April 21, 2012 Posted April 21, 2012 Wow! Awesome MOC lisqr! I really love all the details! Great work! I wish I could build huge things like that... LEGOfan123 Quote
The Joker1 Posted April 21, 2012 Posted April 21, 2012 Wow what a grand looking palace. If you are a Harry Potter fan it could even be Hogwarts. Great work. Quote
ZCerberus Posted April 21, 2012 Posted April 21, 2012 Good work lisqr! Some very nice greebles on this bad boy! Love the bread as a detail piece! Any interior? Really dude? Really? Quote
lightningtiger Posted April 21, 2012 Posted April 21, 2012 Wonderful looking structure 'lisqr' , really looks it's 15th/16th century London for sure ! Any more to join it.....perhaps a clock tower ? Quote
mrklaw Posted April 21, 2012 Posted April 21, 2012 Amazing and beautiful. Makes me think of St. George's chapel inside Windsor castle. Love the greebling Quote
L@go Posted April 21, 2012 Posted April 21, 2012 It's gorgeous! Great job, I think you've captured what you say you were aiming for quite perfectly. Love the bread as a detail piece! My thoughts exactly! Quote
purpleparadox Posted April 21, 2012 Posted April 21, 2012 (edited) Really dude? Really? I didn't mean any criticism or anything negative with my question! I've never built anything even half as amazing as this MOC. I merely was wondering if there was any interior, or any plans for an interior. Edited April 21, 2012 by purpleparadox Quote
unbornchikken Posted April 21, 2012 Posted April 21, 2012 This is simply stunning. Not only is the scope of it immense, but the detailing is so well done, and it is obvious to me that a lot of thought and planning went into this. I love the choice of colors, the tan technic and bread pieces involved in the detailing, and also the technic-supported roof and base. Wonderful! Quote
lisqr Posted April 21, 2012 Author Posted April 21, 2012 (edited) I didn't mean any criticism or anything negative with my question! I've never built anything even half as amazing as this MOC. I merely was wondering if there was any interior, or any plans for an interior. The 4 walls come apart into 4 pieces for the ease of moving and storing. So obviously having an interior defeats that purpose. The interior is completely empty. Wonderful looking structure 'lisqr' , really looks it's 15th/16th century London for sure ! Any more to join it.....perhaps a clock tower ? Well, I've built quite a few (5~6) clock towers of various sizes in the past 2 years. So I've passed my clock tower building urge. Also I'm about to move, so I'm in tearing down phase. In fact, I just teared down this moc today. It's been sitting there for 2 month now. I don't usually keep moc around for longer than that anyway. So in short, not going to build a big Ben anytime soon. Edited April 21, 2012 by lisqr Quote
Nightshroud99 Posted April 21, 2012 Posted April 21, 2012 Wow, there's alot of genius expressed in this Moc. Your parts usage is fantastic. Keep up the good work. Quote
Vindicare Posted April 22, 2012 Posted April 22, 2012 WOW! Amazing building. All the little details are great. The window trimming, the blue spires on the roof. The sheer size is impressive on it's own. Then all the details, wow. Quote
LEGO Train 12 Volts Posted April 22, 2012 Posted April 22, 2012 (edited) WOW! This beautiful MOC is huge and all those lego pieces are so shining! The giant windows in Victorian style are my favorite! ...now you need the Big Ben! Edited April 22, 2012 by LEGO Train 12 Volts Quote
Redhead1982 Posted April 22, 2012 Posted April 22, 2012 The size of the model is great, and so is the detailing...all those bread bricks create amazing pattern. Well done! Quote
