Bookstore Book Nook modular WIP
Started converting the new Bookstore Book Nook into a 16 x 32 modular! I'll be working on it for the next couple of weeks and publish the end result here as well as on my Rebrickable profile :)

Based on your feedback to my previous post, I've created a first version of the Kiosk & Urban Face Sketcher Plaza. Very curious to hear how you like it!
Once the sets are released, I'll share the instructions and parts list on my Rebrickable profile :)
I'm planning to create a modular style base for the upcoming BDP Kiosk and share instructrions for it on my Rebrickable profile. With the building being 14 studs wide, I decided to build it on a 16x32 baseplate. Before I do so, I thought I'd ask you for your preferences!
- Should this base be a 'straight', a 'corner', or a 'double corner'?
- Should the building be at the front of the baseplate (~6 studs from the kerb) or in the back, creating a little plaza in front of it?
- Should the area behind the Kiosk be tiled or not?
- Any other preferences?
Looking forward to hearing how you would like it best :)
2nd USA plate I've spotted in Vilnius in the last 24h, after yesterday's Georgia.
M29, travelling solo by bus from Lithuania to Beach Grind in Pärnu this weekend. Anyone willing to give some festival-related tips and/or adopt a DnB and Estonian hiphop lover?
Insert joke about bad American parking here
BDP Series 7 has shipped and the official instructions are online, so I've updated my modular style base for the Sushi Restaurant and published two separate builds on Rebrickable:
Restaurant base: https://rebrickable.com/mocs/MOC-254332/
Tram line base: https://rebrickable.com/mocs/MOC-254335/
The restaurant base is built on baseplates with a 1.5 modular (32x48 studs) footprint, and the tram line on baseplates with a half modular (16x32 studs) footprint. I kept the original split down the middle of both of them, so the models still separate just like the official design.
My modulars are on rotation because I only have one shelf to display them, and today I updated the layout! Curious to hear how you like it :) From left to right:
- The Art Factory on a modular style base (https://rebrickable.com/mocs/MOC-239650/kiploempia/the-art-factory-modular-style-base/)
- Modified Mountain Bike Adventure Van (https://rebrickable.com/mocs/MOC-265837/kiploempia/mtb-adventure-van-smaller-wheels/)
- Mirrored Tudor Corner
- Mirrored Police Station with dark red accents instead of medium lavender
...so I created my own version of the new City 60512 Mountain Bike Adventure van, with smaller wheels and a bit less ground clearance. Free instructions here: https://rebrickable.com/mocs/MOC-265837/kiploempia/mtb-adventure-van-smaller-wheels/
BDP series 8 is now on sale! If you're buying the University of Science and plan to integrate it into your city, I've made a custom base to do just that. Free parts list and instructions here: https://rebrickable.com/mocs/MOC-263278/kiploempia/university-of-science-modular-style-base/
