I saw this on brickshelf earlier and felt it to be one of the best buildings
I've ever seen.  The level of detail is great as is the color combinations.

The numerous different types of bricks used on the facing give an excellent
sense of texture and look like real molding.

Great job!

Timing, as they say, is everything, so in many ways even the idea of
playing with LEGO seems a little absurd in light of recent events, but
life will go on for us and there's nothing that any despicable coward
can do that will conquer our indomitable spirit.  But I came to share an
MOC-- I hope you enjoy the little diversion:-)

The inspiration for this building came after I got a bunch of the Oasis
Ambush sets last year:
http://guide.lugnet.com/set/5938

I started fooling around with the parts from the set and came up with
the cornice design, and built the rest from there.  It took a very long
time to assemble all of the necessary parts, but I am happy with the
results.

This is my first example of my "miniland detail in minifig scale"
campaign-- more on the way.  Thanks to LD for making many of these
elements available through bulk!
