Hi all,

just in time for the anual 1000steine.de-meeting after X-Mas (http://www.brickshelf.com/cgi-bin/gallery.cgi?f=67347) I finished my minifig-scale model of Venice in Italy.

The whole scenery is 4.5 x 7 baseplates (32x32 studs) large and includes some well known historic sights of the city:

Il Campanile - the red tall tower with a golden angel on top, Rialto Brigde - a very thin and wide bridge over 3 baseplates with two mirrored arched “buildings” with little shops, the Doges’ Palace - the mosaic on the wall will completed soon (hopefully), two columns with the famous statues, a tan and a new-light-brown villa, a small piazza with a little fountain ...

And some boats and gondolas and tourists.

See all pics at http://www.brickshelf.com/cgi-bin/gallery.cgi?f=67367 or http://www.holgermatthes.de/bricks/index.htm

Wow.

Big structures, lots of details. You sure use odd plates well for the decoration.

Apart from the gondolas, I like the fisherman’s boat, who seems to have caught spider crabs!

The Doge’s palace is amazing. (What are the screens made of?) The simple checkered tiles look better in there than any time before.
