December 3, 201311 yr Author When im finding the password for my Cuusoo account im gonna support it. Im a sucker with passwords. :P I always save my passwords on my computer so I don't forget them.......I hope ! Work has started on the next building but it will be a few days before pictures as I haven't decided on the final look of the front wall.....keep watching !
December 4, 201311 yr Author Since it's a LOWES.........from their Facebook page https://www.facebook.com/photo.php?fbid=641272135914055&set=o.107747659249628&type=1&comment_id=1819247&offset=0&total_comments=2 Keep watching !
December 4, 201311 yr Hey LT....long time no chat :) this is another wee masterpiece from the wizard of 'old school' lego builds. I'd love to see your style given the Lego series treatment...they are a great addition between the playtime element of CITY and the uber expensive Modular :D

Work is under way on the new post office.....though I'm a bit torn should I break down my other Aussie Post office or not for some of the interior parts ? Keep watching !
December 5, 201311 yr I got another message from Lowes in Sydney.....they are send me a gift for my posting my design on their Facebook page. Thats awesome !!!! :)
December 5, 201311 yr Author Thats awesome !!!! :) Thanks 'LEGO Family', yeah I know eh ? Last year when I did my first LOWES, I was sent a few gift vouchers.....but they expired before a LOWES store opened up in my nearest shopping centre....at least it's a big store at Ingle Farm. I don't know what they are sending me this time......I'll just wait and see. Now I should hopefully posting (pardon the pun) images of my new post office.....keep watching !
December 5, 201311 yr Now I should hopefully posting (pardon the pun) images of my new post office.....keep watching ! Hahaha .... So be glad you aint using the danish Post office ... Then it would be approx 3 days before the any of us would be looking at your latest build. :D
December 5, 201311 yr Author Hahaha .... So be glad you aint using the danish Post office ... Then it would be approx 3 days before the any of us would be looking at your latest build. :D You know I did build a Danish post office once, along with an OK tankstation and a few other buildings that look modern day Danish.......don't worry postal services around the world are similar ! The right side wall of the LOWES forms the left side wall of the post office.....like I wrote earlier it's a row of shops. The roof section will be a huge piece covering all the builds...hopefully I can keep it simple and more so keep the cost down. Keep watching !

Do you have links to pictures of those danish builds. Just cause im curious ? And ive been really tempted to build the same way when i first started on Allbrickcity. To save bricks. The BricksRus i had to rebuild cause i did it that way. And now where i finally have a plan for my layout im glad i didnt try to save bricks on the rest of my modulars in progress since ive had to reorganize my whole city plan. Im just amased that i havent had to make a BL order yet. But im getting close. Im pretty sure that i dont have the bricks i need to make my hotel which i think will be my next take on a modular. But ive just gotten started on town so i still have so many other things i can build on. I just have this thing that when i run out of ideas on one build i begin a new till i get ideas and then return to the former build. Which i guess my post is showing really well .... LOL On a sidenote, did you se the crypt i posted. Any ideas of what i can make of it ? And that postoffice of yours. Looks like the mail is being distributed around the world is the same. Where is it :D .... Haha Sorry for being sarcastic. Have had a hell of a day and an insane storm is over Denmark so ive been running around securing the house, and lost power for a few hours. So im deadtired. :D Edit: And honestly. Just as i wrote that i ran out of 1x4 white tiles building the interior of my firestation. Karma is a B*t*h ! Edited December 5, 201311 yr by LEGO Family
December 5, 201311 yr Author Well lucky for me my spare parts supplier is only 15 minutes drive from home.....oh, yeah here's a link to my OK tankstation design from a few years back.....http://www.eurobricks.com/forum/index.php?showtopic=63015&hl=tankstation#entry1134428 - my battery on my laptop is about to give out so more later......keep watching !
December 5, 201311 yr Author Now I've started on the post office, but the interior and signs still to be done......keep watching !
December 6, 201311 yr Author A little more work just now.....signs are next - might take a day or two to do though...... Any suggestions what I can put next to the post office......another building or just sidewalk or ? Keep watching !
December 6, 201311 yr Any suggestions what I can put next to the post office......another building or just sidewalk or ? Keep watching ! How about a jewelry shop or a radio shack ? ...Maybe even an pet shop :D
December 6, 201311 yr Author Thanks for the suggestions 'LEGO Family', only very large towns have pet shops, electronic stores or jewelry stores.......a chemist/drug store perhaps or a bakery or butchers shop maybe.....some more suggestions I need indeed. Oh, the new hardware store will be going to the left of the LOWES menswear/drapery store. Post office sticker day today......updating in a few hours......keep watching !
December 6, 201311 yr Author Stickering under way.....a little bit more still to go once I have the next wall up. Keep watching !
December 7, 201311 yr As always your stickers looks excellent. I love the "express post" sticker. Then what about a bookstore or a butcher shop sounds spot on. It could also be a little pub for the locals to share rumors and bit*h about the weather. Maybe a dentist or a haircut shop.
December 7, 201311 yr Author Thanks for the feedback 'jonwil' and 'LEGO Family', there is a pub already in my earlier NM design but since each building is getting a complete overhaul I guess that too will be expanded. I was think a putting the Landmark next to the post office, but I guess a butchers shop and then the Landmark might work......keep watching !
December 9, 201311 yr Author Only digital designing today, I was busy earning money so I couldn't do any work on any of my shops today.....question.....should the buildings be a mix again of different twenty century design eras...i.e. art deco, ? Keep watching !
December 9, 201311 yr Yeah I like the idea of the mix of designs...but if they are arranged in a manner that looks like natural progression over time. Some older buildings with a more modern retro-fits or extension :)
December 9, 201311 yr Author Thanks 'gazumpty', maybe post Victorian and Art Deco.....I'll see how the next few turn out......keep suggesting....keep watching.
December 11, 201311 yr Author A little bit more now....ouch this is going to be a big MOC......better something about the title of this topic. Keep watching !
