All:
I have just completed a 4.5 foot tall model of The Empire State Building:
http://www.mocpages.com/moc.php/794
This new model remains very faithful to the design of the real Empire
State Building. I had to "fudge" things, obviously... For example, the
scale would make a single window smaller than a single LEGO brick; I
compromized and finagled things to look semi-decent. I also didn't
want to simply reproduce The LEGO Company's 20-foot tall model,
which is very accurate, but very huge. For the most part, the building
is microscale... it works well with traditional microfig people (1x1)
and my micro cars.
I was surprised that it only took about 5 days to build; most of that was
playing around with various versions of the top (red, white, blue) section.
The main body of the building went together in about 5-8 hours of
straight building, courtesy of about 50 bulk packs of grey pieces from
lego.com. :)
Hope you like it.
