This is a project that I thought will take few week, but took longer and now is on my working table again.

The customer authorize me to post it. So here I am.

This is a 3 bay fire station reproduced from a real modern one.

Don't worry about the crocked letter because are just for the picture. ( the other ones will be straight)

So today I finished the windows, blinds and doors.

The picture is not the best but give a general idea of how it's look.

If tomorrow the weather is good, I will take better pictures with sun light.

any comment will be welcome.

Andre, that is just awesome!  You have really captured the dimensions and massiveness of the style -- especially through your brickwork. I see a lot of that style these days for car dealerships, supermarket plazas, etc. with the sort of flattened tower roof.

 

It reminds me of a "watered down" or modernized Egyptionate (spelling?) style, which always puzzled me as a style/design choice for new public buildings. But as rendered in this fire station and translated into your model, I must say I really like it a lot.  The architecture and its purpose go hand-in-hand and you've made an impressive model.  The clean monotone colors add to the "weightiness" of the building. The lettering came out great, too.

No interior details from my side. the customer just request the design and finishing structure.

 

Bigtruckpete, thank you, sir!!!

 

Tom, Thank you! keep the character, when you are modifying size and shape is the key.

 

Pete,

I will take a look, I can recreate an 85% of the original building, but as Tom say the character and essence a lot more.

 

Frank, This kit is one of the kind. This is a custom job that I am doing only once.

actually few parts where made during the construction, because is a very irregular geometry, and I didn't keep the drawing. 

 

Thank you again for the nice comments!!

 

Andre.
