The Diner Boys

Ninja Edit2;- This is now a project on LEGO Ideas - That means it could be a set, if it gets to 10,000 votes. So please, if you'd like to have one of these for your very own, head through the link, hit support, and let's make it happen.

"Introducing the Fernando Brothers. They run a beautiful little Fries Hut at the top of East and Main; renown for their delicious Fries, more Fries, stuff, and Fries."

Edit 1 : As this has been getting a lot of love, including being featured on the Brothers Brick this morning, I want to say a few more things about the build.

Last year there was a stage where I built a lot of food, mostly cakes. Hotdog guy had just been released and I also had a larger MOC planned that needed a foodstand. That, and I have a fast food place at the end of my street. Well, that's how the Fries stand came together. A pretty simple inspiration really.

I was also going to include a lifesize 'Hotdog' as a children's play feature, except in the end there wasn't room for a themed playground. Which, brings me to the Burger; It's very heavily inspired by a Chris McVeigh build. If you're not familiar with his work, I very much encourage you to check it out www.chrismcveigh.com

(There was also a Milkshake stand planned, yes, as a life size Milkshake, except as a food stand, but again space, so, next version)

Now there's certainly other things I should maybe say about it, particularly the style/composition, and as you guys have been loving this new style, there will certainly be a lot more of it.

I'll probably get around to the larger version eventually. Eventually.

And lastly, THANKYOU. A huge part of why I build is for you, the fans. So please, let me know more of what you want to see, and thanks again for your support.
