 | | Urban Pool Hall —Jonathan Lopes
|
| | | Hello, I had been uninspired lately but broke out of it (for a little while, anyway) to build this Pool Hall. I hope this is the first of many more buildings for my new layout. (Urban Landscape 2008/2009) (4 URLs) After mod: (URL) This was built on (...) (17 years ago, 21-Feb-08, to lugnet.announce.moc, lugnet.town) !!

| | | | | That is awesome! I especially like the big heavy doors and all of the trim and moulding around the windows. As always, the colors used are as true to life as you can get with LEGO bricks. Great work! Scott (17 years ago, 21-Feb-08, to lugnet.town)

| | | | | (...) WOW as usual. Your mocs have been a constant inspiration to me for years now but you never cease to amaze me. I honestly wish I naturally had half your creativity. I look forward to "barrowing" ideas from this moc and the others you have (...) (17 years ago, 22-Feb-08, to lugnet.town)

| | | | | | | (...) Thanks, Ondrew. I must say that your NMRA set-up really got me wanting to take my layouts and MOC's to the next level. Alleys, more angled buildings etc. very inspirational. I am 95% sure I'll be at Brickworld at this point. Don't yet know if (...) (17 years ago, 25-Feb-08, to lugnet.town)

Here is picture of the Wichita State Logo engraved ove 5 1x8 bricks. (URL) Armstrong The (...) (17 years ago, 25-Feb-08, to lugnet.town)

|
| | | | | (...) Nice work! Very funky, too. ;) The 'weathered wall look' would be great in the urban landscape, or for (western) adobe buildings, or for (dare I say it) Post-Apoc dioramas. I hope to see you try some of those themes someday. Keep building! (...) (17 years ago, 23-Feb-08, to lugnet.town, FTX)

| | | | | (...) Superb--I spent many, many, many hours of my youth in just such buildings. Actually have to disagree about the sign--think it works well. POOL is all that is needed. If one is a pool player that is all that is needed. And most pool halls (...) (17 years ago, 23-Feb-08, to lugnet.town)

| | | | | Great work as always Johnathan. The colors you use and the subject of the creations always fit so well with the other buildings you make. Bravo!

| | | | | | Hey thanks, part of the reason I mention this opportunity is because during the past 3 years, the display space keeps getting bigger and bigger. The marketing company I work with from Hoboken is really very supportive of the displays I put on. At (...) (17 years ago, 29-Feb-08, to lugnet.town)
