Badshahi Mosque

Post by LittleJohn » Thu Apr 21, 2016 11:48 am

Built for the “Historical Build” category of the 2016 MOCathalon over on MOCpages. I chose to do part of a Persian style building, the Badshahi Mosque. Getting the patterns to looks similar to the real mosque was pretty difficult, but in the end I’m satisfied with the result.

Great built. Like all the small detailing you have done to it.

I really loved it.
Do you have instructions for this design?
Did you have hard time to get all the parts needed for this design?

Beautifully detailed! Are you going to complete a market scene ? I would appreciate if you could share some design insights or instructions - thanks mate

Thank you, glad you like it! I don't have instructions for it, it was all by trial and error :-D And I only used parts that I had on hand, so it wasn't a problem :-)

Thank you! I don't plan on completing a market scene, at least not in the near future. Unfortunately this is no longer together, so I can't give much as far as design tips or anything, but I can say it used a lot of 1x1 brick modified with stud, jumper plates, brackets, and 1x2 tiles to achieve all the patterns in the walls. I hope this was helpful, if not, let me know and I'll try my best to answer any further questions :-)
