Lego Egyptian House

 I am posting this house because I wanted to do it for school.  I was studying Egyptian history.  I tried to make it as authentic as possible.                                     
            

 Here is the house.


 This is the living room.

 These are the stairs.


 This is the kitchen from the front.

 This is the kitchen from the side.  I don't know if you can see, but there are cookies on the counter.

master bedroom from the back

 stairs from the back

This is the bathroom. They have a shovel for scooping the toilet.

 The boy sleeps on the roof so the air blows over him.

This is the guest room. It's on the roof too.

 This is the shed for the horse.

 Here is the horse.

the granaries and the open door

This house could be an Egyptian peasant's house because in the country you can have any size house as long as you build it.

Lego Tow Truck

I made a Lego tow truck and this YouTube video is where I got my idea.  Now here are the details.

Here is the front.
You can see it has a Texas bumper, which is a bumper that is wide and low.

Here is the side front. The black piece next to the door is the air filter.

The cab side. ( Like the smokestacks? )

Yep, the doors open. (Still like the smokestacks?)

Top front view. (Like the skylight?)
Inside there's a bunk bed and a cabinet.
With a pistol. (He doesn't use it much.)

  The lights and the winch. 

The yellow piece closest to you is for towing.

 
These are the booms and they turn.

See?


They go up and down too.

The red piece is the turntable.

The little thing with wheels is a segway.

But I realized I forgot a engine, air horns, mirrors, stabilizers, and tools. So I added them.

 Here is the truck.

 Here is the front and the mirrors.

 
 The air horns.


 The hood and engine.


 The engine.


The white piece is the hinge for the toolbox.

Here are all the tools.


This is the other side.


These are the stabilizers.


That is where he stores his segway.
  
The red thing inside is a blender.

 The green triangle is the pillow for the bunk bed.


Front view again.


  The lights again.


 This is looking down the booms.


 The thing on the back again. (Do you know what it's called?)

That's how long the tow cable is.
But I forgot that, on trucks like this the whole front tilts forward.

So here are the final improvements.
Opening...

 Opening...

Open!

 Much more space.
