Multiverse Posted June 27, 2012 Posted June 27, 2012 B-M-04E I realised that, having achieved its status as a Winter Village set, the much-wanted Post Office likely won't be seen as an official modular for quite another while. Here, I give you my personal interpretation of what it might've looked like it in a mini-modular version: Modular Madness Cat.1: Post Office (1) by Multi Versal, on Flickr Quote
brickcitydepot Posted June 27, 2012 Posted June 27, 2012 I really like some of the details going on with this build. I have not seen pollution coming from my post office but yours might be different. I do like that effect though. Great job all around. I wouldn't assume that because we got a winter post office that we won't see a modular version. We got "Mill Village Raid" and a Mill for POC. We got a blacksmith shop for castle and for Ninjago. Quote
Multiverse Posted June 27, 2012 Author Posted June 27, 2012 Thanks a lot, Brickcitydepot! My local post office is actually a small room adjoined to the local grocery store (I live in a small village), so I didn't have all that much personal experience to work from. The smoke is simply an attempt at adjusting it for a big-city feel. You've got a point with the mills and the blacksmiths, though I still think the WV and Modulars are a different category than the regular themes - both are one-set-per-year lines, and they're both exclusives aimed at AFOLs, who TLC can be certain knows about all the sets available to them. I think it's a bigger risk than making, say, a City Post Office immediately after the WV Post Office, because in that case it'd plainly be a children's version and a grown-ups version, making them less of a rival to each other. Still, I guess one never knows. =) Quote
lego_legis_legere Posted June 27, 2012 Posted June 27, 2012 Nice M.O.C. ! It looks like a giant mailbox (am I too imaginative?) Can you add more details such as windows? Good job and keep bricking on ! Quote
Legobrandon Posted June 27, 2012 Posted June 27, 2012 Darn it, I had plans to do a Post Office as well. But you did a great job, much better than what I could of have done. Good luck! Quote
lightningtiger Posted June 27, 2012 Posted June 27, 2012 Cool entry ' Multiverse ', very interesting design....very arty ! Good luck and Brick On ! Quote
Kai NRG Posted June 27, 2012 Posted June 27, 2012 Nice Post office! Great front detailing, but it's a little bricky on the sides - I think you could make it better by adding some details there. Quote
Multiverse Posted July 6, 2012 Author Posted July 6, 2012 Nice M.O.C. ! It looks like a giant mailbox (am I too imaginative?) Can you add more details such as windows? Good job and keep bricking on ! Oh, thank you. I quite like that parallel, though I'll have to admit it wasn't intentional. =) Darn it, I had plans to do a Post Office as well. But you did a great job, much better than what I could of have done. Good luck! Unless you've come up with a better idea since then, why not go ahead and build one anyway? I don't own the copyright of the Post Office concept, and I'd personally be thrilled to see another design for something I'd also done. =) Nice Post office! Great front detailing, but it's a little bricky on the sides - I think you could make it better by adding some details there. Thanks! I very much appreciate the advice. =) Oh, if anyone have any suggestions about what to add on the sides - or suggestions about anything, really - I'm all ears. =) Quote
Ferrik Posted July 6, 2012 Posted July 6, 2012 That looks great. The simple details like just sticking a few letters to the building are effective. The gold bricks look excellent. Quote
Legobrandon Posted July 7, 2012 Posted July 7, 2012 Ahh... that is too bad. Don't have the bricks needed to build my post office. Plus, the mock-up I did on LDD look really stupid. But best of luck to you Multiverse! Quote
soccerkid6 Posted July 7, 2012 Posted July 7, 2012 I like the trees out front, and the jumper plate step ups are a nice touch Cool entry Quote

Kai NRG Posted July 19, 2012 Posted July 19, 2012 Thanks! I very much appreciate the advice. =) Oh, if anyone have any suggestions about what to add on the sides - or suggestions about anything, really - I'm all ears. =) I don't know: Maybe a window? Or a touch of gold?? I like how you have the window at the top though! Quote
