Joff_Draeven Posted January 24, 2013 Posted January 24, 2013 Please see my Hot Sausage Shop for the 'Expand the Winter Village' Contest. This MOC has been playtested by a 10 year old girl, who absolutely loves all the features! (and keeps eyeing off the prizes too!!) Winter Village Expansion - Hot Sausage Shop with Xmas Hamper Delivery Van, Roast Chestnut Seller & Snowball Fighters by mjfirefly, on Flickr The sausage shop is a two storey affair, complete with attached pig sty, just right for making fresh sausages... There is a total of 8 minifigures, including Sausage Sellers (2), Children throwing snowballs (2), Roast Chestnut Seller, Delivery Man, Business Man and Santa. The Sausage Shop roof can be lifted (using the Xmas Tree decoration) for play access. We use a proper log fire to cook our sausages by mjfirefly, on Flickr The interior of the Sausage Shop, a light brick provides the 'log fire' look. Xmas Hamper Delivery by mjfirefly, on Flickr Xmas Hamper Delivery, the hamper includes two bottles of Christmas drink, a carrot, parsnip, and cherries. The trolley can be placed inside the delivery van for ease of transportation, as of course can the hamper. Roast Chestnut Seller by mjfirefly, on Flickr Roast Chestnut Seller, the cart can be pushed along by the seller. Snowball Fight by mjfirefly, on Flickr Children throwing snowballs under a holiday decorated lamppost, this piece can be slotted onto the corner of the Sausage Shop so as it appears as if the children are peeping around the corner of the building to throw snowballs. More pictures of this MOC, showing the lifting roof, upstairs fireplace and other details can be found on the Flickr set by clicking any of the pictures. Quote
tedbeard Posted January 24, 2013 Posted January 24, 2013 Nice, the chestnut cart is very good. I am afraid that the idea of a "Hot Sausage Shop" just sends the 13-year old inside me into fits of giggles however. Sorry. Quote
Joff_Draeven Posted January 24, 2013 Author Posted January 24, 2013 everyone wants a bit of hot sausage on a cold winter's day. Quote
eurotrash Posted January 25, 2013 Posted January 25, 2013 everyone wants a bit of hot sausage on a cold winter's day. I read that and heard Sid James's voice. Fnaaar-fnaaar! Nice MOC by the way. Thanks for sharing it with us! Quote
Joff_Draeven Posted January 25, 2013 Author Posted January 25, 2013 I was trying to channel Frankie Howerd... Thanks, I really enjoyed making it too. I'm relatively new to it all, suppose I've come back from my Dark Period (is that what it's called?) when I left Australia, and a 4' x 3' tub of Lego, behind over 10 years ago. *sigh* Making up for lost time now!

lightningtiger Posted January 25, 2013 Posted January 25, 2013 Nice and simple designing there 'Joff'.....it doesn't take much sometimes to create a cute and cool layout. Good luck and Brick On ! Quote
Joff_Draeven Posted January 25, 2013 Author Posted January 25, 2013 I went with simple and playable, I love seeing MOCs with lots of wonderful designs and to be honest beautiful sculpture work, but there's a lot to be said for being able to play! Thanks for the kinds comments Quote
