lightningtiger Posted April 16, 2014 Author Posted April 16, 2014 Quick update......more to come......lots of tiling to be done yet ! Keep watching ! Quote
lightningtiger Posted April 16, 2014 Author Posted April 16, 2014 My mind came up with a way to save money today.......I'll have construction workers laying new pavement slabs.......oh, I'm a genius , maybe ! At the price of 50 cents per 2x4 tile you can work out that to tile the missing areas would cost tons of cash that I don't have......D'oh ! I'll post more pictures later today.....looks like Emmet and crew are moving now to Avalonia.......goodness help the people of that land now ! Keep watching ! Quote
Artifex Posted April 16, 2014 Posted April 16, 2014 Looking great, LT! K*e*e*p*o*n*b*r*i*c*k*i*n*g! Quote
lightningtiger Posted April 17, 2014 Author Posted April 17, 2014 Looking great, LT! K*e*e*p*o*n*b*r*i*c*k*i*n*g! Thanks 'Artifex'.......now this...... The new mayor of AC....guess who is not happy about having his public works program interfered with even just by a humble truckie ! I just had enough 2x4 bars to make safety fencing.......trying to save a little money, I do have to buy some tiles but not as many as before......I'll have more construction workers on site to upset Mayor Business ! Keep watching ! Quote
lightningtiger Posted April 17, 2014 Author Posted April 17, 2014 Another quick update.....still even more to come......keep watching ! Quote
lightningtiger Posted April 17, 2014 Author Posted April 17, 2014 Adding the police station into the mix.....the basics of AC are almost done.........one month out from Bricktopia ! Keep watching ! Quote
jfbat Posted April 17, 2014 Posted April 17, 2014 At the price of 50 cents per 2x4 tile you can work out that to tile the missing areas would cost tons of cash that I don't have......D'oh ! Earlier this year I wanted to tile all around my Fire station. So I calculated how many tiles I would need of every kind and put those amounts into PaB. I then decided the Fire Brigade would have to do with a bit more of a rough surface on their terrain. Quote
lightningtiger Posted April 17, 2014 Author Posted April 17, 2014 Ha, that's why I decided to make it a construction/public works site. Quote
gunm Posted April 17, 2014 Posted April 17, 2014 It's fun checking in to see how this city grows and changes. Quote
lightningtiger Posted April 17, 2014 Author Posted April 17, 2014 It's fun checking in to see how this city grows and changes. Thanks 'gunm' doe checking in, now it's packed away ready for Bricktopia......so the next time I post pictures of AC and of course NM it will be on display at said event. Though I still must fix up the ice cream and plumber's vans.......must remember to do that......keep watching as usual. Quote
monsinjor Posted April 18, 2014 Posted April 18, 2014 Awesome town LT, awesome. I like how it looks busy. Quote
lightningtiger Posted April 18, 2014 Author Posted April 18, 2014 Awesome town LT, awesome. I like how it looks busy. Thanks 'monsinjor', now I'll have to design an extra feature to the second floor above the coffee kiosk......it's empty at the moment so I'll take elements from the Friend's beauty salon and add it as an interior add-on when I lay it all out at Bricktopia......keep watching ! Quote
lightningtiger Posted April 20, 2014 Author Posted April 20, 2014 Very nice! Thanks 'SalvoBrick', I've knocked up a mini interior for the beauty salon above the coffee kiosk but everyone will have to wait until mid May for photos....remember this one is packed away ready for Bricktopia ! Quote
Wodanis Posted April 20, 2014 Posted April 20, 2014 Liking what you've done so far LT. Noticed the gas station nestled in the back Quote
lightningtiger Posted April 21, 2014 Author Posted April 21, 2014 Liking what you've done so far LT. Noticed the gas station nestled in the back Thanks 'Wodanis', I would call it layering my city layout to give it depth unlike NM where the layout just stretches width ways. Keep watching ! Quote
Alasdair Ryan Posted April 23, 2014 Posted April 23, 2014 I think you should consider changing how the police station looks. I don't like how Lego make there emergency service buildings. Quote
lightningtiger Posted April 24, 2014 Author Posted April 24, 2014 I think you should consider changing how the police station looks. I don't like how Lego make there emergency service buildings. Well, 'Alasdair' the point of AC is that it's a mixture of MOD's, MOC's and un-mod'ed sets.....unlike NM which is purely MOC'ed. I agree on the fact that maybe the jail cell tower is a bit silly, though the station house itself is very modern and realistic. Quote
