Bricker Bricker 72 Posted April 16, 2017 Posted April 16, 2017 (edited) hi guys I have an idea ( for admin ?) to streamline this forum, make a general topic new entry of moc or WIP In this topic everyone can post a title 1 picture and bellow the link to your made topic ( only 1 time per build ). I think it is easier for people who want to follow us, they only have to follow this topic and everyone have a better chance to be seen Because of this? This is only a suggestion!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

2LegoOrNot2Lego... Posted April 17, 2017 Posted April 17, 2017 It is easy to loose track of what's new or have been updated, this might be a solution to that. Quote
efferman Posted April 17, 2017 Posted April 17, 2017 When a topic is updated it jumps on the top of the forum. Why a second notice that something is new? Quote
WvG_853 Posted April 17, 2017 Posted April 17, 2017 Is there a way to stay informed of the Technic and the Scale Modeling sub forum at the same time? I have found the daily digest mail not to be very reliable ... Personally I think it is a shame to split the Technic forum into two fora. The distinction between Technic models and scale models will often be arbitrary in my opinion and there is a risk of diluting the discussions. On the positive side, logically there will be less activity in this sub forum and the great contributions will be better visible ... Just my two cents ... Quote
Jim Posted April 17, 2017 Author Posted April 17, 2017 You can Follow this forum, but using the Follow button in the top right. You will be notified when new topics are posted. After some initial discussion, we have defined a pretty clear description of what Scale Modeling entails. There was always a discussion about these models belonging in Technic or in Special Themes. Well, with this forum we solved that problem Quote

Thanks! I will follow the posts here with much interest. I have always found the scale model posts the icing on the cake of the Technic forum, but let's see how it works out ... Quote

We simply need to get used to the fact of visiting more (sub)forums Quote
Kai NRG Posted April 18, 2017 Posted April 18, 2017 Okay, I've read up on this topic and I think I got the idea of what belongs in this forum right... but just to be on the safe side before I post, would an architectural model such as the LEGO skyline sets - which aren't as far as I know built to a specific scale (at least, mine isn't!), but are obviously models of real-world-buildings - fit in this forum?

efferman Posted April 23, 2017 Posted April 23, 2017 Monday i have asked for moving my liebherr topic into the scale forum. And it is not done yet. So i think a ldd progress is not enough to move. Quote

Buildings are ok. They need to be actual scale model of real building. Specific scale is not important. You can chose the scale you like. Quote

You can chose the scale you like. Ah... okay. I think I understand that, but I want to be extra sure. So, of course, if I replicate a building, I'm replicating it to some scale or another... but I may have no clue as to what that scale is. And I may not be super accurate in getting multiple buildings on one baseplate all to the exact same scale. Is that okay, or am I just overthinking this? Thanks! Quote
efferman Posted April 29, 2017 Posted April 29, 2017 The Proportions should fit. so the construction site toilet should not bigger than the House which is to build on the construction site Quote
lcvisser Posted May 5, 2017 Posted May 5, 2017 May I suggest to include a non-vehicle related MOC in the header picture, e.g. the Palace of Westminster? To emphasise that it's not just about Technic-like models (in the sense of typical Technic themes, such as trucks, machinery, etc.), and maybe let other scale modellers feel more welcome also...

2LegoOrNot2Lego... Posted May 5, 2017 Posted May 5, 2017 @Ludo Visser I really like your suggestion. Makes it more "all-inclusive"...excellent! Quote
