My Not Lego Police Station Modular MOC - Part Two

Hey brick fans!  Welcome back to the Bricks and Figs blog where I review the latest MOCs and minifigures in my not Lego brick collection.  In this post, we will continue to follow the progress of the new Its-Not-Lego police station modular building.  If you've just arrived at this blog post, make sure you check out Part One to this post here, to find out what has transpired to date.

First Looks

In our previous post, the Its-Not-Lego town police chief expanded the project scope to make the police station larger, resulting in extra cost and more delays to redesign and re-engineer the building.  Never the less, work has to continue and we are pleased to provide you with the latest progress to the police station modular.

Recall that the Green Grocer is now brown, not green anymore.  Bricks have been ordered to replace all the sand green bricks with coffee brown, however at the moment only the front and some sides of the building have been replaced.

Starting from the third floor and working downwards, let's look at what else has changed.  The third floor dormer windows have been replaced, providing a cleaner and simpler look.  The police chief is currently undecided on whether he wants the third floor height might to be raised for extra headroom.  But, let's not get ahead of ourselves, just yet.

No significant changes to the bay windows other than the addition of the police signage.  Some windows are not yet glazed but this will be rectified in the next phase.

Moving down to the second floor.  The tan windows in the proof of concept phase have now been painted black.  The window treatments and balcony railings from the original green grocer have now been deleted.  Tan coloured details above the windows remain intact.

There's no mistaking this police station with the large printed sign (courtesy of the Enlighten brand police set #128).  Dark tinted windows with printed stripes also enhance the look.

What used to be the entrance arch has now been replaced by a not quite functional garage door.  The door rails are the poorly made discards from the Lepin Fire Brigade set which I mentioned in my post here.  I needed something, so this will do for now.  Looks good though.   Added a driveway and yellow striping and bumpers.  Light fixtures from the original set were reused.

This side view gives you a better idea as to how deep the new police station will be extended back, almost six studs in some cases.  The floors of the second and third storeys need to be re-engineered, as a result.  New baseplates are on order.

Here's the first floor. Interior wise, the police station is empty.  

Still need to figure out the layout.  For now, there's a door that leads into the garage bay and two interior windows.  The entire front sign can be removed easily.

View looking forward.  Stair case needs to be added and maybe a back door also. Next phase.

Am thinking of doing a slight roof overhang here.  Might need to redo this whole back section.

A couple of the detectives come by to check out the progress of their new workplace.

I dunno. Does the police chief look happy or not?  Do you think he likes how the police station looks, so far?  Let me know what you think of this design in the comments below. 

Next update will be whenever the remaining bricks and plates are delivered.  Thanks for visiting and bye for now!
