lightningtiger Posted July 11, 2012 Now the street as it is at the moment, my photo shot platform is too small. More greenery coming, more white fences, more road pieces....once that's done I can start on the entrances to the main street of my town centre. Comments and suggestions etc., as usual quite welcome. Again more to come so keep watching ! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
lightningtiger Posted July 12, 2012 Odd, no suggestions or comments....must be perfect eh ? Won't mind having some fresh ideas to try out, helps sometimes to have a different opinions on what has been done and what could be done next ? I guess my work is not everyone's cup of tea....Brick On anyway ! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

lightningtiger Posted July 15, 2012 (edited) The main street pavement is finished (the last 16x17 stud area in front of the bank had to be done), and so is the Ford Dealer's spare parts/sales office/service reception/call-it-what-you-like store's ceiling. Vehicles are next....suggestions anyone ? Edited July 15, 2012 by lightningtiger Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

The Blue Brick Posted July 17, 2012 Your town is looking great 'LT.' The street looks awesome and the buildings have wonderful interiors. I love how you even tiled the ceilings. Also, your buildings look a lot better with roofs on them when on display and overview pics. I hope to see more soon. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

lightningtiger Posted July 17, 2012 A huge w-i-p going on here, this will sit about 32 studs away from the bank building to the right side.....a rail bridge will be joining it too ! More to come, more lighting on the bridge plus the rail bridge....the joining plates and scenery too....a lot of work involved. Keep watching ! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

lightningtiger Posted July 17, 2012 Can't wait to see the full bridge! I will work on the rail bridge today and start on the entrance and exit points of the road bridge.....the 32 stud piece you see is the length of it. It goes over an old deep creek bed/irrigation channel. Keep watching everyone.....I will try and position it correctly too today for photographing. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

lightningtiger Posted July 17, 2012 Wait a minute... The entrance and exit points have to be inclined, right? I can see you will have a lot of work on your way! Not always, this is only a small gap the road and bridge roadway are on the same level.....keeping it easier to work with while still being totally realistic. What is hard is the number of 8x16 tiles I need for the roads at 4 bucks a pop and a simple stretch of road costs 16 bucks not to say how much adding T-junctions is.....oh, well....I'll Brick On eh ?

The Blue Brick Posted July 18, 2012 I'm loving that bridge 'LT', and its not even done yet. I can't wait to see it finished. It will be awesome. I want to build a bridge of my own now. Also, what is that large piece you are using. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Keep watching ! Oh sorry, I've seen your new picture of the bridge. I thought that the bridge was going to be on the side of the road, not together with the road. I got fooled with the other pictures . About the road pieces, didn't you like if LEGO made singular sets with just one stretch of road? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
