Boise Bro: “Full House” Victorian/Wohnhaus im San-Francisco-Stil

E Another amazing house builder is Boise Bro, completely unknown to us till to date. This victorian building  (one of the typical “Painted Ladies” of San Francisco) is inspired by a TV show named “Full House”. Now this is really top-notch building: nice techniques, a lot of great detailing, but not over the top, all in all well balanced and very stylish at the same time. There’s a fantastic interior, too. This is a building style we really love, also because of the sheer size which meets quite well the scale we’re aiming at, too. We’ll surely keep track of this builder.

D Boise Bro war uns bis dato völlig unbekannt. Dabei gehört dies sicherlich zum Besten, was es derzeit im Bereich Häuserbau gibt. Bei diesem “viktorianischen” Wohnhaus im San-Francisco-Stil ist praktisch alles erfüllt, was uns besonders freut: Continue reading

E Andrew Tate aka snaillad is surely one of our favourite LEGO architects. His buildings go far beyond the usual CC style, he’s a specialist in terms of Art Deco, and he’s a great car builder, too, a combination which is rather rare. Here you can see his lovely Riverbank Cottage, together with a nice scenery. Very british! The interior is worth a look, too (see below).

Rita Stallings: Coraline’s Pink (Tan) Palace

Coraline’s Pink (Tan) Palace

E My Sig Fig just found out where he wants to live. This lovely and extremely detailed victorian house, based on the “Pink Palace” from the animation film “Coraline”, was designed and built by Rita Stallings – not in pink, as can be seen, but it looks as well in tan. This talented builder is specialized in wonderful houses. Each one of her MOCs is a work of art and we’ll absolutely keep track of her MOCs!

D Meine Sig Fig hat gerade herausgefunden, wo sie leben möchte: in diesem schönen und sehr detaillierten Haus auf der Basis des “Pink Palace” aus dem Animationsfilm “Coraline”. Es wurde von Rita Stallings entwickelt und gebaut – zwar nicht in Pink, aber auch Tan erscheint sehr passend. Rita Stallings hat sich auf wunderschöne Häuser spezialisiert. Jedes ihrer MOCs ist ein Kunstwerk, auch ihre anderen Gebäude wird man sicher hier bestaunen können.

V8 Diner (ER0L’s Garage 1.0)

garage

This is the first step of a bigger project which is meant to feature the cars. This part consists of a 50s style Diner with a sign and a small gas station (rather part of it). And there is a new Rod, too, which is called Baby Blue.

There are some traces of different stuff in it which I tried to melt into something new. It’s not meant as a design study, but as a functional thing – something being used by minifigs. That means that if there is a barstool they must be able to sit on it – even if more beautiful barstools can be imagined. The diner has a detachable roof and a detachable back. The main points here are the slanted columns and the large windows.

Some details: Continue reading
