I thought this morning I should layout my shopping/business district of my town or what I have so far with some road plates street lights and an Australian 'Give Way' sign ! :grin:

Hot babe going to work - cheeky truck driver has a grin from ear to ear ! :grin:

Here's my soon to famous Aussie 'Give Way' sign.........wait to you see the speed limit, no parking and all the road work signs ! :grin:

Finally a shot up the street looking at the post office right up to the Mensland/Sportspower store.

Comments are very welcome, as to sugestions are quite welcome as well !

I'm a conformist! everyone ! :sweet:

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.,.

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:

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.......

mega_street_scape_1.jpg

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:

mega_street_scape_2.jpg

Looks like the BP might just have to pass itself off as a roadhouse in the short term, note the phone box relocation.

mega_street_scape_3.jpg

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 !

mega_street_scape_4.jpgtry

Mitre 10 the hardware men....oops sorry people ! :wink:

mega_street_scape_5.jpg

A view of Mensland corner, a street light is being repaired.

mega_street_scape_6.jpg

Yeah, a more street level view of Mensland corner......man, I getting tired ! :grin:

mega_street_scape_7.jpg

One of the four entry points into New Mannum by road, note the 50Km/hr limit - stick to it ! :vader:

mega_street_scape_8.jpg

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. !

mega_street_scape_9.jpg

Yep, that's the hardware store - I like it too ! :sweet:

Comments welcome and I'm a conformist! ! :sweet:

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.

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.

I'm a conformist! ! :sweet:

well, I have been thinking of building a Tim Hortons for some time. I am planning to do that next fall as I will have more time for LEGO. It is funny you should mention Giant Tiger, they are based right here in Ottawa... :thumbup:

GREAT job Tiger-- couldn't help but notice that there are no straight-outta-the-box sets here, only MOCs and/or altered designs.

Is this by design-- do you only use MOCs in your town display? Or did you just choose to not set up the standard issue sets alongside your original creations for these pics?
