well, my first posting went really well. i must admit, i really appreciated
hearing from people whose names were familiar since i’ve been lurking around
for years, and to be welcomed so positively into what i know is a really fine
community. and while these mocs that i’m announcing are in no way new,
they’ve been on brickshelf for a while, i figure this is what lugnet is for,
to share my work.
cliff house:
built early last year, it stayed around for a long while because it broke my
heart to break it up. it was a 3 story house with removable roof and floor
with a lap pool that ran from the front hall to the ocean wall. it featured a
movable glass wall that extended the living space out onto the deck built
into the rockface cliff. the bedroom and tv room on the 3rd floor were
divided by a balcony that overlooked the waterfall that flowed (by the virtue
of lego engineering) between the 2nd and 3rd floor (environmentalists could
believe that its power was harnessed to generate electricity for the house)
and cascaded dramatically down into the ocean, to be viewed from the floor to
ceiling windows of the dining room. imagine that dinner party!
museum of fine arts:
built last fall. a simple one story building with peaceful gardens,
meandering pathways and statuary. 3 wings featured “the grand masters”,
“french impressionists” and “medieval monarchs”. the open air patio was
accessed from the exterior open wall. the two reflecting pools were
traversed by a simple arched bridge. one pool featured a fountain, the other
a replica of the venus de milo.
i hope you enjoy these mocs like i have.

Very nice house. I rather like the way you’ve made the waterfall using both
solid blue pieces & trans-blue pieces. One other thing that’s interesting to is
how you made the spiral staircase. I’ve created spiral stairs too, but never
thought of using the 1-stud pieces that way. I may have to give it a try for the
next house I build. If you haven’t torn it down already yet, you might want to
consider making an Ldraw file of it. That way you can still ‘look’ at it even if
the original’s gone, and could even rebuild it if you ever wanted to using the
Ldraw file as a reference.
