The Jersey Brick Guy Posted May 9, 2016 Posted May 9, 2016 Hi Jersey Brick Guy--Yup! I already have the screen grabs I need for some skyscrapers. However, I planned on doing a few more builds from the construction site before working on more of the downtown area. I'll get there sooner or later... Awesome, I can't wait to see them all! These are amazing! Quote
BrickJagger Posted May 9, 2016 Posted May 9, 2016 Surprised I have commented on this before; this is amazing! It takes an extreme amount of dedication for a project of this size. Can't wait to see the whole Bricksburg. Quote
Jim Posted May 9, 2016 Posted May 9, 2016 Сам набор мне не нравится, он хорош только на детали\минифигурки, имхо. Please only use the English language. Translation: Sam set I do not like , it is good only for parts \ minifigures , IMHO . Quote
Xon67 Posted May 16, 2016 Author Posted May 16, 2016 What's this? A construction vehicle that's not yellow? How weird... This set cannot actually be built in LDD according to the official instructions. LDD says there's a collision between a pair of brackets, a pair of 1 x 6 plates, and a gearbox that's sandwiched in between them. I solved the issue by using smaller brackets. The folks on The LEGO Movie solved it by simply omitting the gearbox entirely. Quote
Actor Builder Posted May 16, 2016 Posted May 16, 2016 The Dump Truck looks like a yellow reptile of some kind. Quote
Actor Builder Posted May 17, 2016 Posted May 17, 2016 Yeah. Like a motorized crocodile/alligator/IDon'tKnowTheDifferenceBetweenThemWellEnoughToChooseOne. Quote
Lego Dino 500 Posted May 17, 2016 Posted May 17, 2016 (edited) Has anyone started work on the Cloud Cuckoo Land submarine yet? Edited May 17, 2016 by Lego Dino 500 Quote
Xon67 Posted May 17, 2016 Author Posted May 17, 2016 (edited) Lego Dino 500--Flikr user Imagine Rigney has done a great job building one: I'm going to build my own one of these days. Technically, I already started on it when I did my Master Builder Christmas tree. Edited May 17, 2016 by Xon67 Quote
Xon67 Posted May 20, 2016 Author Posted May 20, 2016 (edited) Okay Jersey Brick Guy--You got me thinking about the skyscrapers, so I built the first one. This one appeared with several different color combinations (I haven't shown them all here) and 3 different rooftops. Edited May 20, 2016 by Xon67 Quote

Any ones that can be converted to being minifig size? Quote
Xon67 Posted May 21, 2016 Author Posted May 21, 2016 Jersey Brick Guy--Everything in this topic is built with LDD and rendered with Bluerender. The skyscrapers are at minifig scale--those are rows of 1x4x6 windows (twenty per side) alternating with rows of 1x6x5 panels. That would give those minifigs plenty of headroom in there. Quote
Xon67 Posted May 25, 2016 Author Posted May 25, 2016 (edited) This truck is based off one with the LEGO logo on it that delivers LEGO sets. It was also used as the basis for a Toys R Us truck set in blue. Edited May 26, 2016 by Xon67 Quote

Wow those are huge! They seriously look amazing. Quote
Dakar A Posted May 25, 2016 Posted May 25, 2016 Oh man, I love all of these! But I really like the gas station- could we (or just I ) get the .lxf for it? I promise you'll be the first to know if/when I brick build it. Quote
Xon67 Posted May 26, 2016 Author Posted May 26, 2016 Dakar A--At this point I'm only posting files for a few of these. The ones that I have are on the first page of this topic. If you'd like, I could post a few more images of the gas station for reference, Just let me know. Quote

Xon67 Posted June 1, 2016 Author Posted June 1, 2016 Dakar A--Here ya go! Let me know if you have any questions or need any other views. Quote
Chr.Maglekaer Posted June 1, 2016 Posted June 1, 2016 Hi kibosh. Yes, I've been creating these for a while in LDD. I'm just now getting around to posting them since I recently found the Bluerender post on this site. It's really easy to use and gives great photo-real results. Here's another one based on the Fire Brigade set. LEGO Movie brick tower by Xon 67, on Flickr It's look like Rundetårn i Copenhagen or maybe just used as a source of inspiration :P https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rundetaarn Quote
Xon67 Posted June 2, 2016 Author Posted June 2, 2016 Look at that! It even has the same number of windows going up the tower. Thanks for sharing! Quote
Xon67 Posted June 4, 2016 Author Posted June 4, 2016 Back to the construction site: I have a few more to do here before moving on to another area. Quote
