Posted May 26, 201311 yr Hi All, This is my expansion for the winter village. Overall view of the winter post office and bakery combined The little busy street Will post more photos of the combined scene over here in future.. :) Enjoy! Edited May 27, 201311 yr by crayonboi
May 26, 201311 yr nice idea those snow imprints from the car... what is the idea of the thief and officer?! ;)
May 26, 201311 yr Nice winter scene......great idea using the van from 4207 parking garage as a food van.....Brick On in the snow 'crayonboi' ! (footnote - I think the crook stole a 100 bucks from the bakery......he stole some dough ! )
May 26, 201311 yr This is a great little scene! The brown and tan path is really effective. Will this be consistent across the scenes?
May 27, 201311 yr Author This is a great little scene! The brown and tan path is really effective. Will this be consistent across the scenes? Thanks.. yes.. all my scenes will have this brown tan path.. Nice winter scene......great idea using the van from 4207 parking garage as a food van.....Brick On in the snow 'crayonboi' ! (footnote - I think the crook stole a 100 bucks from the bakery......he stole some dough ! ) But the van look kinda 'thin' from the top view, wanted to make it 6 stub wide but space constraint. :P nice idea those snow imprints from the car... what is the idea of the thief and officer?! ;) Ha.. it can be the thief stole it from the bakery like what 'lightningtiger' mention or stole it from the hot dog van.. :)
May 27, 201311 yr Author This is my winter village bakery expansion Added a hot dog van into the scene Hope you all enjoy it..! Cheers! Working on the winter village post office expansion now, hope to show you all in a few days time.. :) Here come the expansion for the Winter post office as promise.. :) Overall view of the winter post office Feel that the Mail van is too long, so decided to remove the front part and make it shorter.. quite satisfied with the mod.. :D A band of musicians A lady reading a book in the park while enjoying the music Two little Red post box Hey! You left a box behind! Next in line in my winter bus station which i submitted for the Winter Village Expand Contest III :) http://www.eurobricks.com/forum/index.php?showtopic=78792&hl=
May 27, 201311 yr This looks great, crayonboi. I'm looking forward to seeing them all attached side by side.
August 5, 201311 yr This is really great!!! One thing I never much understood was why there was so little snow on the post office roofs!?!?!?!??? That's no reflection on you - just wonder why Lego did that when other buildings had much more or A LOT!
August 9, 201311 yr Loving this idea. Question, I was unaware of Lego making a lamp post piece in red. Is this a custom product?
August 9, 201311 yr Zula - each winter village set has its own theme basically. Like the WV Cottage last year was created to look like it just went through a snowstorm and that's why it has so much more snow than the others. Watch the designer videos. They are quite fun and informative. Wodanis - That piece has come in quite a few different colors actually. I like seeing a whole diorama with the sets. It makes them feel even more complete. However, my complaint is definitely against the mail truck. I think it looks too stubby now without the front engine. Just my opinion. The rest of the set-up looks great. I like the tiled sidewalk and the guy plowing. Very fitting. Keep up the good work. I'd love to see the others blended in as well. This inspires me to do the same with mine sometime if I ever find the pieces. Edited August 9, 201311 yr by TheLegoDr
August 10, 201311 yr Hey! I remember seeing this back in May, but I guess I was too busy at that time to comment on it. Anyway, your work is always very nice. The bus station is great. Did you get the latest Cottage? I'd like to see what you've done with it if possible. Thanks, Joe
August 10, 201311 yr Author Hi all! Thanks for the comments! Thanks to TheLegoDr for helping me to answer some of the question, and for your question regarding the mail van, at first i was quiet reluctant to make the changes to the mail van, but i still find the end product quite pleasing to me. :) Hey Joe - I still left with the winter toy shop and winter cottage yet to build and make it into a scene. Quite busy with my kids and my Iron Man MOC http://www.eurobrick...showtopic=83224 Still finding time to build it and expand it. But i have complete another scene recently, which is the my winter bus station. I have re-design the bus station so that i will be slightly smaller and can fit into my 32x32 scene. Hope you all will like it. Cheers! Soooo, there come the pictures..! Enjoy! And finally, my 3 scenes join up together; (Sorry for the poor lighting)
August 10, 201311 yr I like that bus stop. I'd like to see some more color on the side walls, but otherwise it fits in pretty well. The playground area is a nice touch, although it must not be too cold out in your winter village. Some people don't even have coats on!
December 26, 20168 yr Author Its been some time since i have continue with my Winter Village expansion. Thus i will like to one of the latest expansion for the Winter village Santa Workshop diorama. I have make this Diorama for our local Christmas Brick Show held last weekend, total there are 6 diorama including the 3 diorama which i have done previously. The remaining 2 diorama i will finish up the photo shoot soon and share it. :)
December 26, 20168 yr Great job! I really like the bases you built. I set mine up, but just on those 48x48 baseplates. I like the connectivity so you can take the sets off & take apart. Then store the bases as well. Going to look into that for next year.Â
December 28, 20168 yr Nice details.I like the path that ties it all together. The sausage van is always a welcome addition to a skating session. A busy little street is always hard to do. Although I prefer a little more space, I think you did okay.Â
January 3, 20178 yr Author The 6th scene of my Winter Village Expansion, Winter Village Cottage, but more of like Ghostbuster Winter Village Cottage.
