Bandstand

Like every spring, the city celebrates his bandstand and remembers the one who built it : Mr. Blacky Smiles. He has called his building The Lantern, as if everything underneath should be made to shine !

Legend has it that this mysterious man was a pirate and that he hid part of his treasure in this square... A treasure that children are always looking for.

But now, let's celebrate ! The musical instruments are prepared, the refreshment bar is installed, the audience has arrived, the concert can begin !

I came up with this idea while playing with bricks from a small Ninjago set. I assembled the base with its floor with these real bricks. I liked the rendering and I deepened.

This set of more than 1300 pieces includes some gameplay features :

There are 5 minifigures :

This bandstand has a regular octagon shape. Its design was sympathetic. As much as integrating it on a square that takes up the codes of modular sets ! 

 

The most interesting part was designing the roof. I imagined several solutions and I finally retained the strongest. It includes an assembly of Technic bricks under the panels. This assembly also helps to support the ceiling that has the studs down.

I hope you like the idea !

And sorry for my level of english.
