Hello all,

Here is my modification of 3661. I started out wanting to turn it into a modular building and got rather carried away, so it is a corner modular 32 x 32. Hope you like it, and more pics available on my flickr page (link in my signature) :laugh:

The top floor is the manager's office, with the bank vault next to it, of course with the key pad so only employees can enter. As you can see, lots of goodies in the vault. (Unfortunately i'm still waiting for the dark blue tiles to go on the floor)

And all the floors.

More pics on my flickr account (link below) and comments welcome :classic:

'timmyc1983'....this is a fantastic modular......greed is good for this bank plus you used quite a few 3661 sets up or make extra stickers yourself eh ? :grin:

Personally I'm more of a fan of open back designs......you might have guessed that anyway. :laugh:

I will now pass the same comments over on ANZFOL now.......Brick On 'timmy' ! :grin:

Thanks for the kind comments, much appreciated :classic:

Wow that is awesome! How many Bank sets did it take to build it??

...snip....

I used only one 3661, the extra stickers are indeed my own doing. The building all up is is 2050 bricks :classic:

Ahahaha :grin: yes I have to admit I have taken my sticker inspiration from you LT!!! But I didn't want to fork out for an extra 3661 and I wanted a few custom signs on the building too...

Fantastic work timmyc1983. A very modern-looking steel-and-glass modular building that would be a perfect complement to the new 'city corner'. The interior is amazing too, especially small details such as the basin in the office and the keypad lock. The vault content is also nicely presented.

Very well done!

I like this a lot. I have a soft spot for modular banks for some reason; I wish TLG would release an official one. The dollar sign on the sidewalk is a nice touch.

I like the front spiral staircase surrounded by all that glass. Very impressive - although I'm not sure about the security/privacy aspects of carrying all that bullion and goodies up two flights of stairs in full view of the general public :wink: (but that's why we need all those Lego Police Stations)

Joking apart it does look impressive and thanks for sharing it with us!

That spiral staircase/window combination at the front is just an amazing design feature and a wonderful use of space.

Great work

This is an interesting design. I have two of those sets, and I'm thinking of modularising it for a few years now. The idea I have is much different from yours, so it's great to see a potential in a set to make it different. The color scheme looks fine, but it's details attracting attention. I like the rounded corner, although I'd prefer a non-transparent roof.

Thanks you all, feedback is much appreciated :classic:

Very nice and i love your town layout, but i must ask, where is your layout. It looks like you in a cave or something like that.

Thanks 'Branolego'! Now that would be amazing: a LEGO Cave!!!! But my layout is under the house, as the house is on slope, the sandstone foundation at the front of the house are very high and the further back you go smaller the space is. Luckily there's a nice big room at the front which I can stand in, and that's where my layout is :laugh:

Thanks! I'd love to see your take on this set!! I had a lot of trouble figuring out what to do with the roof. I didn't want to put just a standard tower on it with the rounded corner, i felt it needed something very unique to set the building apart from anything else, so i came up with the trans-clear brick idea. I'm still not entirely happy with the roof over the rounded corner, I must admit...
