Tobias T's display has varied setbacks, closely matching floor-to-floor heights,
and an appropriate level of detail.
Brick Knight's buildings use a bunch of parts we don't recognize.
The past few years have been kind to townies.
More that Moonbase, more than whatever this was, the simplicity of the Market Street Module seems to allow a wide variety of buildings to appear coherent, even tasteful.
Take a time warp to the Interwar Period. It's not Town, it's Ye Olde Towne
What has been the largest single display of Modules? Who is the best at it, the Modular Man?
Probably our favorite of the bunch. We clearly have no choice
but to pony up the cheddar cheese for a Disney Castle. Forget
LUGs, let's form a Gild Guild.
We are a sucker for soft pastels.
We've missed the simplicity, timelessness, and joy of this hobby. Connecting pieces and in so doing, connecting with people.
The modular building series is one of the things that brought me out of a grey age in the mid to late 2000's. I'd argue the style is ubiquitous because it's timeless. The same thread runs through every town set Lego has made (even those awful ones in the late 90's and early 2000's). All the modular building style did was add more polish and attention to detail, and judging from both official sets and MOCs I don't think there's any danger of running out of ideas.
ReplyDeleteI got a few of the city modulars and tried to moc Arkham Asylum into CC scale as well. However I got bored and am now trying to build in a more Ninjago modular way - with the attendant mix of styles/eras/modes of transport
