OK, maybe just one more...
When we put the display together with our new extra large buildings we realised we would need one final large scale building, the gaps between the buildings needed to be smaller to create a "metropolis" feel - one final building would plug the hole nicely.
We'll plan to complete the building with the bricks we have remaining on hand. We have lots of white bricks (especially 2 x 4s) and a good quantity of red bricks. We also have some curved 'macaroni' bricks which thought might be a nice touch. (There is a pic of the 'macaroni' bricks on this page.)
We also had a nice little "Shell" sign we'll put to good use:
The completed build - front view
The completed build - side view
The completed build - rear view
The completed building - top view
The completed building - close-up
Total bricks: 1,072
We’ll call this “The Shell Building”.
So that's that! We are now ready for the Canberra Brick Expo on August 10th, 11th and 12th. If you're in Canberra during that weekend pop in and see us, otherwise stay tuned for photos of the completed display in our next post.
