Is there anyway to extend the 5301 mansion?
« on: June 28, 2011, 11:34:03 »
Ive just been treated too one and although its lovely-its just not big enough for what Im looking for:(((
The previous owner has already added another grey floor to it so I dont want it any higher.
Is there anyway to extend it sideways?
Or even combine it with the victorian mansion,for which I have lots of bits:)))
Many thanks for the advice in advance;))))

Yes, here are two ideas.

 :love: :love: :love: I love the second one JOe.
But can you expand the upper floors horizontally? I have my 5301 in a bucket  :P right now so I can't look but I don't think there is a way.  :(

how you made the second joe?
I used parts from the pavilion to make both.  The second doesn't have an attic floor.

But can you expand the upper floors horizontally?
Gaston,
Since there aren't any 2 unit wall sections (except the conservatory ones,) in the 5301 parts, I suppose you could use parts from the 5300 and paint all the house another color to match. You would definitely need floor sections from either the 5300 or 5305 for the horizontal extensions, but I think it could be done.
Good luck.

Im not trying JOe  ;D... I have too much in my hands with the 5300  :lol:
I was just thinking that with the 5301 original parts it is not possible. That is the only thing I don't like about that house.  :(
Thanks anyway.

This might work.  :hmm:
You would need an extension floor for 5301 and some 5300 or 5305 base, floor and roof parts though.
