I think a good idea would be to use brown plates for your flower beds. Flower beds, at least around where I live, are typically filled with dirt, mulch, sometimes even wood chips and then the flowers and trees are what bring in the color. Just an idea that's been kicking around in my head since you've started adding those more oblong shaped beds around the train station. Great stuff though overall! Really enjoying this series!
You could do a hommage to yourself and the excruciating building of the cobblestone tiles: have a small group of minifig workers who are tearing up the cobblestones, fixing some communications beneath them, and then laying the tiles again :D
Love the new tree design and the railing on the stairs! It's a bit sad to see the rock face go, but the space feels more available to use for bigger and better things now. I think you did a good job on the curved stairs railing. Great job as always! Looking forward to future updates
You removed the red flowers! The red flowers were so good there. The purple/pink is alright. But I loved the red. The purple is much more muted, the red gave the area before the tunnel so much vibrance. What you might be able to do is intersperse red and blue together to mute the red enough to match in with the other blues/purples.
Also, that new tree is absolutely awesome. Would love to see some larger trees in that style.
If I had any recommendation, it's just that it might be worth reconsidering the placement of the buildings directly on top of the railway tunnel. Structurally that would not be an ideal spot to build houses, and it might make a little more sense to have an open walkway area right where the tunnel is located, with houses on either side.
Maybe you could put a big lake between the village and the edge of the city. You could fill that with minifigs fishing, swimming and doing watersports. I love the look of the city! Its amazing!
An idea for the museum : you could have a space for visitors to create their city. it would be a collective work from all the visitors, each one adding something, some would just add a few flowers, other might want to add bigger contributions, ... some will remove things, improve others, ... the result could be so cool
For the railing next to the wall you could make a hand rail that connects to the wall instead of the floor like it would be in real life so there is a little less clutter because I think with all the connections to the ground there might be a little to much black. Just an idea, love the vids :)
You should add a random Minifigure at the very edge of the city staring out into the land beyond the baseplates that's having an extecensial crisis about the entire world as he knows it being plastic, is his house made of flesh or is he made of house? Does he even have a house? Who are his parents? Could they even be considered parents or siblings since they originated form the same factory, whos hands are these are they even his? And other such though provoking questions a Lego man could have...
I've been following your builds for a while now. Whenever I see you've posted an update, I stop what I'm doing, make a coffee and sit in awe of your building skills.
This build is insane, the amount of time and planning & patience you have for this is incredible. So satisfying seeing the Timelapse. Your so passionate about your work 😊 it’s amazing!
