Mini Modular version based on a previous MOC. With some slight modifications.
Thought it would be fun to revisit some of my old MOCs and recreate them as Mini Modulars.
My LUG's city layout lacks corner buildings and I suddenly had a few ideas for my first modular buildings. This corner will constist of two small houses, the other will be rounded (hopefully).
32 8x8 mini-modulars designed over 2 months for the 2017 Rebrick Mini Building Madness contest. All purely 3D, no real build, parts in unavailable colors were allowed.
Building the highlands castle, really stimulated my mind, and I was left wondering what would these techniques and styles look like if they were incorporated into the modular castle system.
This is my first attempt at the gatehouse. There is definately a lot i'd like to change, but i like it enough for an innitial upload.
As always if you are interested in the project, go to my lego ideas castle, and support it, so it can become a real set!
An extension for the Ninjago City modular sets. This is designed to set between the Ninjago City set and the Ninjago City Docks. I intentionally stepped the right side down a bit to help transition from the taller city set to the shorter docks set.
This will be part of the Brothers Brick collaborative project at BrickCon 2018.
A simple star from waterbomb bases, folded from circles.
Or one can say it's made from preliminary bases - on a circle they are the same thing.
5 units, no glue
After 3 years Con'ing - and watching the likes of Pepa Quinn and Mark Larson pack down their layouts, I set off to try to add some modularity and build more collapsible. So when I was building the Mechhanest I did put some thought to how to compact this down as much as possible.
I also thought about modularizing the system a bit to be able to make this hangar expandable - Though I'll probably make the next section be a single mech bay, instead of two scrawny ones :D
A modular version of this picture frame. Folded from 4 units, each from 1:2 paper.
Modular version is easier to assemble and can be made with smaller paper sheets than the single-sheet version. This model also shows how the proportions of the frame (width, height, depth and breadth) can be varied independently. Instructions can be found here.
Inspired by models by Hans-Werner Guth who, as I later learned, has designed an almost identical model. Given the simplicity, I assume an exactly identical design must also have already been folded by others before. His work in turn is based on the designs of Thoki Yenn.
Designed by: Shuzo Fujimoto
Folded by: Akira Nguyen
I don't really do a lot of tessellation's but i was definitely on board with this one since it can be made into a modular unit!

MOC: Modular LEGO Store. Based on the LEGO Brand Retail Store set that has been used as a giveaway at store openings over the past couple of years, but blown up to minifig scale.
And yes, I know that the original set isn't a corner building, but I just hadn't built one yet and needed one for a layout I was working on :)
A couple of weeks ago, I got my hands on a 1592 Town Square set (Dutch version). I had to restore it a little, and then I got the idea to make a building for my modular street inspired by this set. So this is the result. A corner house, built in the middle ages, the last in its sort, next to the last remaining part of the city walls. Maybe it was the house of the gatekeeper. Today the space behind the gate isn't used as road any more, but houses a little snack corner, where you can eat 'soep en worst' (as in the original 1983 set).
Next to another modular MOC it looks very small, but that is to be expected from a little mediaeval house.
I haven't yet remade the statue and the parade from set 1592.
Modular Origami Star (Maria Sinayskaya)
squares, 6 units, no glue
The paper I used here is one of the patterns from Zen Origami kit The model is not, though! I'm just using the paper to fold all the current stuff I'm working on. There are 40 sheets of each pattern and as I have already folded a 30 unit model from this particular one (haven't uploaded yet), I "can afford" now using the rest of the sheets for stars :)
Lego bookstore modular inspired by A.Masow Architects concept store. There are four apartments above the bookstore. The modular house can be opened at the back and is fully furnished. About 6500 bricks. Computer rendering but only existing bricks/colors were used. Reference images.
Modular Origami Stars (Maria Sinayskaya)
rectangles (1:3), 8 units, no glue
All these are folded from 1:3 rectangles of the same size (2.5*7.5 cm). The smallest stars will work better from 2:5 though.
So this is a little "Collection" Pic of all my CUSTOM yes that right My custom modular buildings!
Enjoy!

Rendered just before some minor detail changes, this is the most up-to-date render of my modular police station. It's still a WIP, but most of the work is interior decorating at this point.
The design is inspired heavily by the old Hartford CT Post Office and Customs House: en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hartford,_Connecticut#/media/File:H..., as well as the Lego City Police Station 7744.

So many modular builds I've seen are always so... I dunno, ground level? I wanted to build something that had a walkdown to something, like, for example a pub.
Building guide available on www.brickmonster.toys
Following the standards commonly used for LEGO® modular buildings, the Police Station is a modular building in a 32-stud-wide format with 4 distinct sections.
- Ground Floor featuring payphones, a large desk, waiting area, and holding cell.
- Main Floor featuring the many desks of the precinct's detectives, file storage, a bathroom and a caged armory.
- Top Floor featuring the chief's office, an evidence room, and crime lab.
- Roof featuring communication equipment and the station's air conditioner.

There are four pieces missing from the LXF. You have to imagine four 1x1 Technic Brick with pin hole placed there. (Pin holes have restrictions in LDD)

A Greek meander pattern folded as modular origami. The bent frame technique is the “Thoki Yenn style” which I also employed in a number of other models.
Each of the five full loops of the curve is a single unit, folded from a 1:5 rectangle, so that the whole model can be made from five pieces cut from a single square. Of course, it is possible to add as many units as required to make a longer model.
In theory, one could fold the whole thing (or even arbitrarily many turns of the curve) from a single long strip of paper, but such long strips are not very practical to fold with. For those who do not like even 1:5 ratio paper, it is possible to make each segment a separate unit, thus exchanging the ease of folding for much more measuring and cutting.

The facade of this hospital is modelled after Ullevål Universitetssykehus, which is a hospital in Oslo, Norway.
Made for the Modular Madness contest on Eurobricks.

I designed this with the Parisian Restaurant in mind, but it is made to be totally modular and used with any Modular from Lego or custom built.
The central part of my idea is the park, which in turn can be used as a larger park or two smaller ones, on the likes of the Lego Pet Shop modular.
But there’s more! It can be connected to extra pavements and these can also be used with your modulars, to create squares, make a standard modular look like a corner one, or create your own and unique combination. Did I mention that there's also a colorful mosaic?
There's a bunch of accessories, from a fire hydrant to a comfy bench, and some of them are used to disguise the standard Technic brick used to connect modulars.
And if that was not enough, you will get a lot of accessories to make your city stem to life!
There's a newspaper kiosk, designed to remind the Parisian ones, a crepes rickshaw, a trash trolley, a monumental statue, two wonderfully flowered trees and a big oak tree to give some shade in the park.
And then several other smaller accessories that can be used with this set or all over your modular town.
And, last but not least, there’s 7 minifigs (and a dog) to animate the town!
If you are a Lego Modulars fan, you will want to have all of these in your Lego town.
