Introducing my first custom skyscraper:

US Bank Tower, Los Angeles! Click the picture for more photos.

That's your first!?! Great job on that US Bank tower! One of the best ones I've seen at that scale.

Sorry for the large picture size. Not sure how to shrink it...

It looks really nice.

I'd resize the picture before uploading it to Brickshelf.

I was inspired after looking at this thread earlier today that I wanted to build another mini-scale building. After browsing for ideas in the Skysraperpage diagrams I found the perfect one that I can build with the pieces I already have and that I haven't seen done before. With that here is what I just finished after about 5 hours of building:

Trump Tower:

Instantly recognizable. About what scale is it?

Ersh · #**807** Posted **Apr 19, 2011, 3:55 AM**

It's roughly 1:600 scale. It's to the same scale as my Sears Tower I posted last year.

It looks very good! Are those all 1x2 trans-black plates?

Speaking of Burj Khalifa Spencer...¡Andale!

¡Andale!

Just kidding

Since ths thread has to do with architecture in LEGO bricks I think we should start putting the modular house series up!

The latest one, 10218 Pet Shop, has been revealed today! I've known about this baby since December but couldn't say anything till now

IMO, this looks rather ordinary on the outside and a bit dull. But if you look at more pics online, you'll find that the inside does not disappoint!

The original release date was set for June but I believe it was pushed back to August.

Hey!

I don't know if anyone thinks this is interesting, but here are some screenshots of the skyscraper set I made in Lego Digital Designer.

This is not everything but I can't show you all the buildings that are in the set.

Please let me know what you think of it.

Ersh · #**815** Posted **May 6, 2011, 3:28 AM**

I'm not seeing any pics or links in your post, though I was able to see the links when I go to quote your post and took a look around. Those are pretty cool.

Does Brickshelf not allow hotlinking anymore? Bummer, that was the main reason I have any of my photos there.

Actually stores start selling it this Tuesday, May 10!!!!

Ersh · #**818** Posted **May 6, 2011, 11:41 PM**

Brickshelf allows hotlinking still. He had put the url of the page of the image rather than the image itself between the [img] tags

rjb001 · #**819** Posted **May 7, 2011, 5:11 PM**

So Spencer, any hint as to when we'll see this aforementioned new building of yours??

There's been some delays. Probably sometime in June.
