domino39 Posted July 20, 2012 Posted July 20, 2012 B-OM-27C Modular Madness : Passage Parisien (catégory 3: modular classic) The building is a Parisian passage with a gallery with several small stores (antique dealer, hairdresser, florist). The passages Parisian cross several buildings with big windows. Quote
Cecilie Posted July 20, 2012 Posted July 20, 2012 Wow, this is very nice! It's instantly recognizable as Parisien. From the balconies, to the colors on the front of the stores on the ground floor, and that glass roof and tiling on the floor, everything about this screams of Paris. I love it . I have been to Paris many times, so I know what I'm talking about . Good luck in the contest Quote
slovakiasteph Posted July 20, 2012 Posted July 20, 2012 AMAZING! I wish I could have this house in my modular town! Quote
TheLegoDr Posted July 20, 2012 Posted July 20, 2012 Great build! Overall some really tough competition. Hopefully I can get my act together and finish it, but it will be tough when it is time to vote! I really like the interior shot of the skylight walkway with the overhead lighting. Brilliant. That shot alone makes me want to vote for yours. I do like the roofing angle, of which I thought about doing similarly for my own Modular. I couldn't decide between a flat front or a angled roof top. I think I will go with the latter thanks to looking at yours. The detailing around the front upper windows isn't quite what I was going for, but surprisingly similar. Needless to say I think it looks spectacular. Good luck in the contest. Quote
The Blue Brick Posted July 20, 2012 Posted July 20, 2012 This really is stunning. The detail is amazing, from the tiling, to the stores, to all the balconies. The colors work so well together. Good Luck in the contest. This will definitely be one to beat. Quote
prateek Posted July 20, 2012 Posted July 20, 2012 Wow, I love this style of architecture. The walkway in the middle with the skylight is just awesome. Definitely a front runner in this competition Quote
bluedragon Posted July 20, 2012 Posted July 20, 2012 My favourite entry so far. Beautiful modular building- tres chic! Quote
lightningtiger Posted July 20, 2012 Posted July 20, 2012 So French, so beautiful....so classic 19th Century inspired structure 'domino39', gee now I know why I haven't tried a design for the contest. AWESOME work, good luck and Brick On 'domino39' ! Quote
Vindicare Posted July 21, 2012 Posted July 21, 2012 Wow, amazing details! That middle walkway is a great pattern. I like the little shops, very cool. The exterior is nice with the big window displays, they each have their own identity to match the shop(s). I like your railings out front too, very decorative. Quote
castor-troy Posted July 21, 2012 Posted July 21, 2012 Is it the french touch ? very very very nice entry Dom. Your creation is so realistic. But now You are the one to beat Good luck for the contest ! Quote
LeeMcG Posted July 21, 2012 Posted July 21, 2012 (edited) This is very nice indeed. I'm very glad you posted it near the end of the contest or it might have discouraged me from finishing my own entry! Is there an interior to the upstairs floors? Lee Edited July 21, 2012 by LeeMcG Quote
streifen Posted July 21, 2012 Posted July 21, 2012 the facade is excellent! I like the photo of the hallway (4th photo) which showed the light fittings! All the best!! Quote
soccerkid6 Posted July 21, 2012 Posted July 21, 2012 Stunning work! I like the NPUs like the droid bodies and gates turned on their sides The floor work is excellent too and the hairdresser office looks very accurate. The curved stairs are another great detail Quote
LegoJalex Posted July 21, 2012 Posted July 21, 2012 That looks very nice! I like the idea and all the details. It reminds me of a passage we have in the town I live in. The glass roof is really nice! Well done! Quote
L@go Posted July 21, 2012 Posted July 21, 2012 Let me start with the one thing I don't like: The windows without glass on the ground floor. But I don't know how you could solve that. And apart from that, it's great - the idea is probably the best one yet in this contest, and the passage itself is gorgeous, with its diagonally tiled floor. The interiors are wonderful, all of them, and there are some great details: The Fabuland watering can as a sign is nice, the barbershop is packed with greatness, and although you're not being awfully nice to those leaf pieces, it's an interesting way to make small trees. And your custom stickers add to the end result. Overall a great modular and another entry that'll be hard to beat... :) Quote
Vincent Kessels Posted July 23, 2012 Posted July 23, 2012 That is a brilliant Modular Building! Only the direction of the gravity is a bit strange. (You might want to turn the photos 90 degrees.) The part I like best is the glass roof. The sand green cheese slopes are a great detail. The tiled floor looks also very good. It is a shame that you can't remove the shops to make better photos of the passage. Oh, and Welcome to Eurobricks! (Go ahead, and introduce yourself in the Hello! My name is... forum.) Quote
Anticyclone Posted July 23, 2012 Posted July 23, 2012 This is my favorite so far. That glass roof is a great addition. Overall nice color scheme and details. Quote
LovinLegoSince97 Posted July 24, 2012 Posted July 24, 2012 Very nice MOC especially the spiral stairs and picture from the inside. Job well done! Quote
mrlegoman Posted August 4, 2012 Posted August 4, 2012 Ahh, this takes me back to my days in Paris! Very nice indeed! Quote
Redhead1982 Posted August 4, 2012 Posted August 4, 2012 This is another great MOC. I like the use of dbg containers as chimneys, and the roof windows are nicely (and smartly) positioned to open to the inside. What I don't like is the use of greenery - I can't believe it's that flexible! Anyway, the Passage has a lovely mixture of texture on the facade as well as interesting interior details. Quote
