LEGO Guy Bri Posted November 5, 2012 Posted November 5, 2012 Beautiful modular RYB! The colors are wonderful and I love that pic with it among those other modulars. Quite an impressive collection Quote
TheLegoDr Posted November 5, 2012 Posted November 5, 2012 I agree that it doesn't feel overwhelming for its size, mostly because of the color scheme. I'm not sure how much I like the roof color and the two blues together, but at the same time I can't seem to turn away. It's very peculiar. I do love the overall design structure of the building though. The gold accents do play off of those browns. It is amazing how different those two browns are when put side by side. Keep up the good work. That's quite an interesting city you have there. You must have a lot of space and time! Quote
Alasdair Ryan Posted November 6, 2012 Posted November 6, 2012 Awesome job recreating the building in Lego. Quote
MrDarthLord Posted November 6, 2012 Posted November 6, 2012 Any idea of the brick count and potentiel BL pricing ? Anyway, It's just wonderful... Quote
alois Posted November 6, 2012 Posted November 6, 2012 Amazing building. I like the way you've restrained yourself in using blue bricks. And I think this would also look wonderful surrounded by a large park or garden. Quote
RoxYourBlox Posted November 6, 2012 Author Posted November 6, 2012 (edited) Any idea of the brick count and potentiel BL pricing ? 9136 pieces. BL prices can vary, but you could make a rough estimate by the piece count. The 1x2x3 black windows are hard-to-find at the moment. Amazing building. I like the way you've restrained yourself in using blue bricks. And I think this would also look wonderful surrounded by a large park or garden. Personally, I would have liked to try sand red or salmon as the primary color with a dark blue roof and brick yellow (tan) trim, but that'd require some bricks never produced. So, I swapped the color palette of the completed LDD file to try a few different looks. Medium nougat produced an effect too similar to my Pumpkin Factory, and dark red was just too dark. Eventually I settled on a reprise of my daughter's favorite colors, as seen previously here. Perhaps there's a better combination, but with the MOC being so expensive I wanted a guarantee that 1 person in particular would be happy with it. Edited November 6, 2012 by RoxYourBlox Quote
MrDarthLord Posted November 6, 2012 Posted November 6, 2012 Wow, that's a lot of parts, and that's also a nice father. I'll get the LDD tomorrow on my big computer to see some details, but this is really a masterpiece you can be proud of. Quote
LegoJalex Posted November 14, 2012 Posted November 14, 2012 Very nice design and colour combinations! Well done! Quote
Foxley Posted February 16, 2013 Posted February 16, 2013 (edited) Most beautiful design, well done. Edited February 16, 2013 by Foxley Quote
Vindicare Posted February 17, 2013 Posted February 17, 2013 (edited) You have some amazing talent. The color combinations you come up with are brilliant. That photo of yours together is mind boggling(I'd love to see more of that). The shapes of your buildings are also a breath of fresh air, with all the recessed areas to break up an otherwise flat wall. Edited February 17, 2013 by Legocrazy81 Quote

I had plans to update a few Castlometry pics soon, so I'll have the camera out for any other requests as well.Since you mentioned it, yes, the windows of Fountain Castle are recessed by a full stud--the visible frame is actually formed by tiles. However, the black tiles absorb light as around a raccoon's eyes, and the effect becomes (too) subtle. Quote
Missing Brick Posted February 17, 2013 Posted February 17, 2013 Beautiful MOC - the sort I'd be proud to display on the sideboard. Just need to add some stairs :) Quote
