Lego Result: Gas Station

This is the result of my previous post "Lego Research: Gas Station" (31JUL2010). If you click back to it, you can see the clear influences of the Texaco 1945 station, as well as, the Signal and Magnolia stations. In the end I went vintage rather than modern.

The model is based on the gas station frame that was in the Town Square building set. Created with only partial facades, I fleshed out the full form and shape of the building increasing it's actual size in the process, and then I added the tower and canopy setting the entire structure down on plates tiled to fit in with the detailed architectural models that were inspired by the new Lego Factory series. In the end, I rather like it.
