Hi, this is my second MOC and first Ninjago City module. It’s a 32x32 baseplate with a height of 75 cm (2.5 feet) and a piece count of around 6500.

Features:

• A large, lavish hotel with a "Ninjago Movie-esque" sign written in ninjargon (it simply says "HOTEL")
• A beach with an ice cream shop and springboard
• "I ❤️ NC" souvenir stand where you can buy ninja figurines, shirts, plush toys and more
• Thai restaurant with outdoor seating
• Air scooter rental (inspired by the jewelry thief from Ninjago City Gardens)

       

Good looking build. Lots of details. Does the hotel have interiors for the rooms? I love the expression of the guy on the air scooter.

Thank you @Feuer Zug! Only the bottom floor foyer of the hotel is decorated (reception desk, elevator, chandeliers, potted flowers etc) but I might add more if this ever makes it to a convention. 

Very fun! I love the brick-built lettering on the hotel!

Thank you! The sign was actually the thing that initiated this build. The movie version of Ninjago City is full of huge signs on the buildings but the official sets lack them altogether.

Love how the clean look and the color palette return that manga feeling that this subject deserves.
Great job!

Thanks @Grin! Even though Ninjago City is supposed to be a chaotic, bustling metropolis, I find that it helps to chunk up this kind of large, busy build with the help of color for it to not be perceived as cluttered. Especially when this is only a fraction of the total city footprint as in the case of my, and most other Lego cities (pardon the lack of pictures of it in context, I’ll add some once I’ve taken proper pictures).
