    New MOC: Michigan Theater —David Kohrman
   Time to announce my newest building. I recently finished the Michigan Theater, a fully furnished 1920's movie palace. My largest building yet features a neoclassical exterior and a japanise atmospheric interior. There is seating capacity for 86 (...)

        Re: New MOC: Michigan Theater —Greg Perry
     (...) I wanted to go ahead and send you a "WOW!" in response to your posting. This is a great building. Here are some of the things I really like about it: - The side exit stairs and the way they link to doors at different levels. - The columns on (...) (22 years ago, 7-Apr-02, to lugnet.town)
    
         Re: New MOC: Michigan Theater —David Kohrman
     (...) Thanks for the comments! I feel that the use of the 1x2 white grills for the pilasters really make the design work. Ever since I saw those pieces I thought they would make great fluted columns. Never could get enough for a building until now. (...) (22 years ago, 8-Apr-02, to lugnet.town)
   
        Re: New MOC: Michigan Theater —Jonathan Lopes
      (...) Hi David, This theater is fantastic. I really like like all the detail on the facade. Particularly the use of 1x4 tiles at the street level/entrance level of the facade, I use tiles in that manner as well. The columns are great & the blanked (...)

         Re: New MOC: Michigan Theater —David Kohrman
     (...) Your correct that the blanked in windows hide the exit stairwell. The staircase follows a similar path as the fire escape and exits were the front door is. I got the idea for the rustication when I got the Blacksmith Shop and its 1x4 studs on (...) (22 years ago, 8-Apr-02, to lugnet.town)

     (...) Whoa! I just took one look at this thing, and I found myself looking at every picture in the gallery! Just makes me wish I has purchased more 3033 tubs when I had the chance! Just my two brickz... <<_Matt Hein_>> Lugnet No. 1112 (22 years ago, 7-Apr-02, to lugnet.town)
    
         Re: New MOC: Michigan Theater —David Kohrman
     (...) Thanks for the comments! Since this chewed up most of my bulk yellow and bulk blue (interior shell) I likewise wish I had more 3033s. Maybe someday Lego will issue a similar product... Again thanks for the comments! David Kohrman (22 years ago, 8-Apr-02, to lugnet.town)

     (...) The theater rocks.It's even better in person.I love the half stud work.The details on the inside are just as good as the detailed outside.Chris (who is home sorting his 9 - 6921's(monorail acc. pack) he got in the mail yesterday((5 days from (...)

         Re: New MOC: Michigan Theater —David Kohrman
     (...) Yeah, it is better in person. Given the camera and lighting conditions I couldn't get any good clear pictures of the interior. Perhaps if we actually have a sunny day anytime soon I can take better ones. But this is Michigan... Glad you like (...) (22 years ago, 8-Apr-02, to lugnet.town)
   
        Re: New MOC: Michigan Theater —William R. Ward
     (...) the interior pics are difficult to view in some cases. Can you take some more, perhaps with better lighting? --Bill. (22 years ago, 8-Apr-02, to lugnet.town)
    
         Re: New MOC: Michigan Theater —David Kohrman
     (...) Thanks for the comments. I plan on adding better pictures once the weather improves. Its been raining for the past few days but I think it will be sunny tomorrow so I hope to have some up by then. Thanks! David Kohrman (22 years ago, 9-Apr-02, to lugnet.town)
   
        Re: New MOC: Michigan Theater —Jason Spears
   (...) <snip> (...) I really like the red stripes on the stairs inside. The Japanese feel to the inside is unique. I particularly like the roof-line just above the screen. The fire escape along the back is of course wonderful. That is one the things (...) (22 years ago, 9-Apr-02, to lugnet.town)
   
        Re: New MOC: Michigan Theater —David Kohrman
   (...) The inspiration for the interior came from the Redford Theater in Detroit... (URL) it was a good town use for those extra 6093s and 6088s I had lying around. I think this was the first time I've really done any sort of floor pattern. The (...) (22 years ago, 9-Apr-02, to lugnet.town)
