That store is the best part of this scene now! Just a suggestion, instead of making new topics each time you update something, you should post it in the old topic as an update, like many other EB town builders do. :wink: :thumbup:

Thanks 'prateek' for your kind reply :sweet: , I normally do update old, but this had quite a few changes in it and there are more to come, so from now on any street shots will appear here with the roads etc.,.
Keep on bricking everyone ! :sweet:

Thanks 'The Brickster' for your reply, it's only going to get bigger with a pub, supermarket, car/tractor dealership, cargo handling area and truck stop. So I even think I'm half way yet ! :grin:
Keep on bricking everyone ! :sweet:

I went nuts today - well not crazy, but set up what I have of my town (minus medical clinic and yet to be started pub and supermaket), so here we go.......
Posted Image
As you can see it is only going to get bigger, the riverbank and train line/station and a factory is yet to come too ! :grin:
Posted Image
Looks like the BP might just have to pass itself off as a roadhouse in the short term, note the phone box relocation.
Posted Image
Yep, and my one and only front paged MOC, Bridgestone Select - note the curve plate might make way for a T junction to go the pub, supermarket and medical clinic....whew......I'm not done yet !
Posted Imagetry
Mitre 10 the hardware men....oops sorry people ! :wink:
Posted Image
A view of Mensland corner, a street light is being repaired.
Posted Image
Yeah, a more street level view of Mensland corner......man, I getting tired ! :grin:
Posted Image
One of the four entry points into New Mannum by road, note the 50Km/hr limit - stick to it ! :vader:
Posted Image
Another view of the main street, you may have noticed I need more road plate - yes I'll be trying to get some a.s.a.p. !
Posted Image
Yep, that's the hardware store - I like it too ! :sweet:
Comments welcome and keep on bricking ! :sweet:

You town is all coming together nicely lightning, great job. All the decals are looking great too. Any plans for some greenery?
Keep up the good work. :thumbup:

Thank you 'ISC' for your reply, kind words thank you again. :sweet:
Greenery, yes.....like I wrote I need more road plates so with that I can have a large traffic island with plants (flowers & shrubs).
Many Aussie country towns have their town centre to one side of the highway so hence this large traffic island will seperate most of said town centre from the main road in and out of New Mannum.
Keep on bricking ! :sweet:

WOW!

Lighting Tiger, i cannot tell you how much i love your town/ city! It's so sweet! It has everything a town needs; pub, clinic, stores, hot-babes!!
Really love your MOC stores and houses! :thumbup: I like that phone booth! Place where Superman can transform.. Very beautifully made! Not to forget the use of personalised decals! Sweet!

Thanks for sharing and hope to see your town/ city expand even more! :classic:

That's great! :thumbup:

I think your town could use a few more vehicles and minifigures. The scene looks kind of empty.

Thank you 'prateek' and 'FixBayonets!' for your kind words. :sweet:
Now more vehicles are planned, more people too, as I said before greenery, roads, more buildings etc., this will always be a W.I.P., because any town in whole always changes so might mine.
Keep on bricking ! :sweet:
