MOC: Renaissance palazzo

Post by Vineborn The Red »

Hello all,

I'm working on my first MOC to post here and it's going to be some kind of Italian styled mansion with a small square. Maybe you guys got some tips or inspiring photos about renaissance styled architecture. Hopefully you guys will reply. :D

I can't say I'm an expert regarding architecture from that period, but Toltomeja posted [url=https://www.flickr.com/photos/toltomeja/17827953545/]this[/url] moc recently which may provide some inspiration. Also, [url=https://www.flickr.com/photos/52656812@N04/17546311808]this[/url] square by Andrew Tate is more modern but has some stunning facades.

Patrick Bosman's [url=https://www.flickr.com/photos/patrick-bosman ... 1961508142]Querceto Castle Island[/url] has a lot of great architectural details.

Also, there's a Flickr group called [url=https://farm9.staticflickr.com/8191/81505773 ... 21b4_n.jpg]Lego architectural features[/url] that has a lot of good detail shots. You might find some interesting things in there.
