DB24 Posted November 22, 2007 Wow that looks spectacular! I love the whole 'non crowded' look, its so realistic. My town is so full of cars and minifigs... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Captain Green Hair Posted November 22, 2007 Nice town you have there Daniel! I especially love the wooden building and the water tower, the size of the watertower is great! *y* Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Asuka Posted November 22, 2007 What a plain wonderful layout, simply marvelous and beautiful with a fine balance between the realistic town atmosphere and the rural charm of the clever non-LEGO landscaping. *y* Perhaps some windows for the backside of some of your exquisite buildings like your version of that tan Town House could add to its overall very detailed atmosphere.... :'-) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
jedikermit Posted November 22, 2007 Beautiful setup, some great buildings--love the trains! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
simonwillems Posted November 22, 2007 Nice work! This town of yours looks very spacious with a good balance of build-up areas and rural landscape. If only I had that many space for a layout... I'd like to see some close up pictures of that wonderful tall crane in the background, do you have any? any particular reason why you called your town Revelstoke?

casewindu Posted November 22, 2007 A very nice town Daniel really classical and plain demonstrating how a plain town can look great! I love your hill and grass effect could you tell us how you created this? That would be great! your swat type police van in the backround of the first pic is very nice too maybe some close ups? ;-) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Captain K. Posted November 22, 2007 Hello, I am Sven. Daniel and I, we have built this town together. Here one picture of the station. We still will make a pair of pictures of details and vehicles. Greeting, Sven Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Daniel G Posted November 22, 2007 (edited) Thank you for the praise answers. @ casewindu, @ simonwillems, I will make further detail pictures of our town. The grass is a carpet. Capt. K. and I built the hill with polystyrene. The grass effect on this hill is a grass for the modelrailway normally.. Revelstoke is an american small town in the reality. Our town is little adapted to the material town. Many greetings Daniel G Edited November 22, 2007 by Daniel G Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
ExoBuilder Posted November 22, 2007 Wow very impressive and very large! I wouldn't mind having one of those! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Bonaparte Posted November 22, 2007 One of the better big layouts I've seen till now. The carpet and the hill certainly adds a lot to this town. You guys have some fine building and I just *wub* the train station. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
tedbeard Posted November 23, 2007 Revelstoke is an american small town in the reality. Too bad. I was all excited that someone was doing the Revelstoke here in British Columbia, Canada. I didn't know there was one in America. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

maiq the liar Posted November 23, 2007 Hello, I am Sven. Daniel and I, we have built this town together. Here one picture of the station. http://www.brickshelf.com/gallery/DundS/Bahnhof/abahnhof.jpg We still will make a pair of pictures of details and vehicles. Greeting, Sven I just LOVE how small Town-ish that looks! (When i see it the tillamook county forest comes to mind) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Daniel G Posted November 24, 2007 Too bad. I was all excited that someone was doing the Revelstoke here in British Columbia, Canada. I didn't know there was one in America. OK. Small misunderstanding. It was probably nevertheless rather the name, which was more interesting. Our town was not very large at the beginning. That see you on our website under "Legogeschichte". We found the town Revelstoke in a railway magazine. After the fact we decided that our town is built approximately in this style. Greetings Daniel Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
PaulC Posted November 25, 2007 That's a beautiful layout. I'm particularly impressed with your 8-wide trains and the mix of Lego landscaping (I love the pond) and non-Lego landscaping (the hill and tunnel with the house on top). Can I ask, is the green mat something you can buy for model railways or just a piece of carpet that matches the grass on the tunnel? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Captain K. Posted November 25, 2007 This is a green carpet. We have bought this one in a shop. The colour matches the green of Lego very well. We were lucky there. Green flakes are the grass on the mountain from a model railway shop. I am pleased this our town felled! Sven Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Matn Posted November 25, 2007 An example for all of us! It is a very nice and comfortable town, it looks nice and quiet there. Really nice buildings. I posted this 'Stadt' on my LEGO-blog. *y* Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
