Old Fishing Store hits 10k on Ideas
Old Fishing Store which is one of the most unique and interesting projects to come out of LEGO Ideas has raced to 10,000 supporters at break neck speed and joins the likes of the Fossil Museum, the Gingerbread House, and the Modular Train Station as the projects that qualify for the next review round. The good thing is LEGO put a rallying call out for unique not IP based projects and all 4 to qualify tick that box and this is probably my personal favourite of the 4.
The project is the by robenanne and this is his project pitch”My story for this modular building was that the Old Fishing Store is based upon the Christmas sets that are available. I liked the Christmas sets so I built this one on Lego Digital Designer (LDD). I really believe that this model could have a lot of genuine interest to fans of Christmas sets. This is the first of a series of modular buildings that I will be making.
Summary
The building consists of roughly 2160 parts and three floors: the main store, office, and lookout. I used the colors brown and sand green that gives it a realistic feeling. Three Mini-figures could be added such as a fisherman, the store keeper, one captain. And a lot of details.
It includes: Mini fish, crab, flicking hook, starfish, snow owl,Barrels.”
