Legos of the day!

Hey again, it's been a week or two since I posted anything. But, have no fear! I have been busy building(and playing baseball and going to school, oog) I have built two models to share with you today. They are(drumroll please) A car, and an earth house!

I hope you like them. To see the car you will have to go back a page or two, I took a lot of pictures. Tell me what you think!

Melville's house

This is the front view of Melville's house. It features wooden pillars that help support the sod roof. It also has an ever important invention known as the door. I have also adapted the use of flower boxes to my building. As you can see, this is an earth house, and as such has a green roof=D Enjoy!

Bed

This part of the house is where Melville sleeps, you can see the fireplace in the corner which we will talk about next! Above his bed you can see he has a map. What could it be for? He also has a window by his bead so he can see out when he wakes up in the morning!

the hearth

This is the hearth or fireplace in his house. This little corner has a fireplace, 3 windows, a barrel with his wooden sword in it. Plus, he has his wooden shield mounted on the wall above his chest of personal belongings! In the picture you can see tha he is attempting to stoke his fire.

Lego car

This is my first realistic & minifig scale Lego car I have succeeded in building. I would also add that I haven't tried to build one in a few years. Anyways, The car features four wheels, seats, and opening doors!=D It's actually a pretty basic car. And, last but not least, it has seating capabilities for two people!

Inn

This is my version of an old inn, it is complete with a kitchen, dining hall, master bedroom, and storage/bedroom. A fine place to spend a medieval night munching maggoty bread, drinking ale, and talking with fellow drunks!

Top floor

The top floor serves as a storage room and a place for cheap bedding. This is a good alternative to a pricey fully furnished bedroom. The room includes heating and stairs down, isn't it nice not to have to jump out of a window to reach the bottom floor?

Dining room

This is the main entrance to the inn. It is also the place where meals would be served and travelers would meet with friends. Complete with a fireplace, main dining table, smaller table, and fireplace!

Master bedroom

This is a bedroom that the owner of the inn would sleep in. Or perhaps a wealthy noble or traveler.

Kitchen

This is my inn's kitchen. Complete with sink, stove, and angry chef!

Back alley

This is the back ally of my Inn, the door you see is a backdoor into the kitchen, the black pipe coming off the building that you can see in the bottom right hand corner is a drain out of the sink in the kitchen.
