I'm assuming that this a tool store?

It looks nice.

Thanks and it's a farmers supply store.....you can see coils of electric fence wire, boxes containing irrigation plumbing parts, pumps, shearing motors, etc.,.

Real one......

You are becoming the store expert!

They look very good.

How did you create those small plastic packages? Customizing?

Thanks 'Captain Braunsfeld', stores seem to be my calling, just like some AFOL's rock space or castle themes....mine is always and very ever be town. :grin:

Now custom items are two ways, brick built items or stickering tiles/bricks it give the appearance of packing, items hanging, etc., it's like magic I guess to sell this is miniature real life. :classic:

Keep watching more still to come. :classic:

Just a quick written update, I have decided to add a fenced off section to the right on another 48x48 base plate which will lead into the silo area.....it will start will sealed road and then gravel roads heading eastward from the town centre. Hopefully tomorrow I might have section one and two together again so I can work out the power poles and photograph it......keep watching tomorrow everyone. :wink:

As 'Captain Braunsfeld' said............

"You are becoming the store expert!"

I agree completely, all your 'store' MOCs are fantastic. :thumbup: :thumbup: You must have 1000's of small pieces to create all the details you build inside and out of your creations. :grin:

Keep up your great work.............maybe I'll ' borrow ' some of your ideas for my creations. :blush: ( Surest form of a compliment ) :wub:

Even before reading who was the author of this new moc I had already recognized your style.

Excellent reconstruction, far better than my poor english.

Congratulations.
