Welcome to the Wild West! 

The story

Lucky Town is a small mining community in the Wild West. It's the late 19th century. The general store is the heart of the town. It was built by the owner more than 30 years ago, that's why some buildings' surface damage is visible. The store is regularly visited by the Town residents and local farmers. And what can we find in it? Almost everything. From vegetables and baked goods to mining equipment and dynamite - everything that is essential in a mining town. As anyone can get gold fever!

The store is a one-story building with an interesting color scheme. Sand blue matches with white accessories. The walls are made of horizontal boarding. Above the entrance, we have a large roof to protect us from the sun. On the side of the building, there is a smaller roof over vegetable and fruit boxes. There is also a rocking chair on the porch - a favorite place for the owner to spend his free time. Inside, we have several shelves. One is full of mining equipment and on another, we can find canned food and bottles of various liquors. On the counter, we can see a cloche of cupcakes - the muffins are baked every morning by the owner's wife. Right away a classic cash register catches the eye. In the building, we also have a stove for the colder months. On the flat roof, we see supplies of straw for the animals and multiple barrels full of liquor and gunpowder. Behind the building, we have some stock and a large barrel of water. Next to the building, we can also see a cactus and a shriveled tree.

Look! A wagon with new supplies is heading to the store!

5 Minifigures and 2 horses included.

Howdy! My name is Lukasz Lyciuk and I hail from Poland. Aged 36, I work as an IT Architect in an international consulting company. When I'm not wrangling IT challenges, you'll find me immersed in two of my favorite hobbies: LEGO building and reading Clive Cussler novels. 


My love for LEGO dates back to my childhood, where I spent countless hours creating worlds with those colorful bricks. Despite facing financial constraints, my parents always managed to provide me with a few sets, fostering my creativity. At some point, I found myself particularly drawn to the Wild West theme. It's in the rugged charm of those classic spaghetti westerns and the soul-stirring music of Ennio Morricone that I draw my inspiration. Captivated by the era, I strive to infuse every one of my projects with the essence and details of the Wild West. Before embarking on each new creation, I immerse myself in that world, setting the stage for my next adventure! 


For me, LEGO is more than just a pastime; it's a break from the world, a way to connect with my kids, and an opportunity to let my imagination run wild in the world of Pirates, Imperials, Islanders, and the Wild West, themes that captured my heart back in the '90s. I take great pride in my MOCs, particularly the Imperial Soldiers Fort, Forgotten Island, Sheriff’s Office, Blacksmith and Train Station, which reflect my spontaneous and adventurous building style. 


Absolutely, at some point, my heartfelt goal became to revive the spirit of the Wild West in the world of LEGO! Being captivated by the enchanting Western themes from my childhood, I found myself on a mission to infuse the LEGO world with the magic of those days gone by. The General Store and my other Wild West projects became the perfect canvas for me to unleash my passion and dedication, as I poured my heart and soul into every detail to create an authentic and evocative representation of the Wild West. My ultimate aim is to transport LEGO fans back to that fascinating era and share in the joy and excitement it brings.  

 

My inspiration for the model came about several months before I even knew about the Bricklink Designer Program. It wasn't initially designed with the competition in mind, nor was it my first choice of project. During the design process, I drew inspiration from my previous project, the Sheriff's Office, and utilized the best techniques from that building while also making some improvements. 


As for where I find my inspiration, I immerse myself in the era by browsing through a plethora of photos from that time and watching classic Western movies. I strive to absorb the atmosphere and essence of those times. Ultimately, my creations are a combination of various inspirations rather than being solely influenced by one existing building or source. The Wild West theme sparks my imagination, and I love crafting unique pieces that pay homage to the enchanting era of the Wild West.  

 

It's truly hard to pick just one favorite feature from this project, as there are numerous elements that bring me joy. However, the first thing that comes to mind is the rocking chair. I dedicated a lot of time and effort to create something truly captivating. After many iterations, I finally achieved a design that fills me with pride! I adore such intricate details that add character to the whole build. 


Another aspect that stands out for me is the wall construction technique. I simply love how it perfectly complements the Wild West atmosphere. The rustic walls add a touch of authenticity and enhance the overall vibe of the design. 

Lastly, the color palette ties everything together beautifully. The combination of white and sand blue exudes an unmistakable Wild West charm. It's a delight to see how these colors come together to create a captivating and harmonious composition. Overall, these features represent the heart and soul of the Wild West General Store, and I couldn't be happier with the way they turned out!


Yee-haw!
