It is very very nice in that scale! Much better than the original although I also like the original.

Very nice job. Indeed very tricky in LDD. It will take a lot of space in the real world. I did a few attempts, I got a partial turntable working but I don't have a place to permanently store it yet since it is so huge. A traverser table is much more compact.

Then it is spot on, I don't remember that but it has been a while.

Although I think the only thing that is a little out of place is that Santa, maybe you could add something more CS Lewis style instead.

Don't call out at each other @LegoSims20 and @LordVoldemort and keep it friendly in here. It is our hobby, so keep it enjoyable for each other and for the rest.

Are there any sand brown / gray brown colored bricks?
JopieK replied to willsbuilds's topic in General LEGO Discussion
I meant medium dark flesh as well instead of dark flesh without the medium, medium dark flesh it is more orange than old brown. Old brown is a little darker than current reddish brown, but not as dark as current dark brown. Dark flesh was only around for two years apparently mostly Bionicle parts. -
Works great I think! Nice work!

JopieK replied to willsbuilds's topic in General LEGO Discussion
It also depends on what type of bricks you are looking for of course. Maybe sand red comes a little in your desired spectrum? LEGO designers (from TLG) have quite some restrictions on colors. Colors play a role in what age category a set is put in but they are also limited in the amount of different colors they can use for a set. So the spectrum is becoming better (I think), but indeed still some gaps. Did you already come across dark flesh as well? There are even masonry bricks in that color: Lots For Sale: Dark Bluish Gray (989) Dark Red (492) Dark Tan (1064) Light Bluish Gray (1096) Light Gray (2) Medium Dark Flesh (1147) Olive Green (119) Sand Green (635) Tan (348) -

I think there are. 1000steine at least has a lot of sub-communities. You could ask @Dirk1313 he definitely knows!

Hi 343EVE, welcome to Eurobricks! Can you be a little more specific? A picture would help. Aliexpress and parts suppliers including Mouser, Arrows, Digi-Key, etc. have a massive amount of different switches. But it totally depends on what you need, what LEDs you want to use etc. If you embed it entirely in a model you could even use a reed switch and a magnet.

Still need to fix an annoying bug for version 1.1 then you can also use the app for controlling two motors on one HUB (you can also choose to reverse one or the other). Will support iOS 10+ (upon request).

It is a nice and clean build. But I don't see the 'modularity' as in the modular building standard. You might want to improve it towards that, nice with LEGO that you can always change/expand. I finished the outside of a modular hospital some weeks ago, still finishing of the internals. I decided to make an elevator for it instead of stairs. I don't think it is too tall (I don't know of your other buildings of course).

Technic legacy/oop parts
JopieK replied to Eclipse's topic in LEGO Technic, Mindstorms, Model Team and Scale Modeling
The part they should rerelease is the Cypress. There has been a lot of mystery around it. It is also in the LEGO games apparently (I saw when my cousins played it :)). But apparently they even don't want to reintroduce that part. Some people say well the molds are destroyed. Well they could 'just' recreate it from the original part, they make molds all the time for new parts that are more complex I would say.
