Somewhere Rural, United States - (BTT) A new barn went up on the outskirts of town! Sources say its to house Farmer Smith's slick new tractor, that, incredibly, he bought at a recent auction. When asked about the purchase, Smith said, "I have absolutely no intention in using it. It just looks real nice in my barn. I'm a hoarder, you must understand."

Classic Red Barn

My Classic Red Barn

This took me about two months to produce. It originally started out with a really basic roofless frame of the building with any sort of brick I could find—mostly yellow and blue. From there I counted the pieces I needed and ordered a good amount of red 1xX bricks. Another order soon followed to complete the roof and grass.

By far the trickiest/irritating bit of this whole model was the top most roof sections. They can't just sit on there, or else they slide off, pushing the middle roof section off in the process. So I had to place them on little hinges, which worked pretty well, aside from the fact that they leave little gaps near the top.

I'm really happy in how this turned out. I've never built a barn before, and now I finally have!

Hope you all enjoy it!

Home on the Range

This was posted a long time ago on Classic-Town.net, but after looking around on through Misterzumbi's Brickshelf images, I figured that this diorama deserved to be shown again. The house, barn, cornfield (with accompanying crop circles), pond, tractor, and abandoned truck are absolutely fantastic. The amount of detail in this is astounding, and just proves how much one can do with LEGO. Awesome work on this one!
