Thank you! 🙏

I finally got around to documenting this build a bit better. It required that I built a new Lego room with ample space to actually build up the city again (it’s been in cardboard boxes since last spring) so it took me a while A few more images can be found here: https://www.flickr.com/photos/201315430@N04/albums/72177720331604447/with/55054903677/ Also, I made a detailed tour of my MOC'ed parts over at YouTube, unfortunately only available in Swedish though.

Thank you Kalais! I can see people not fully agreeing with the legs but they do provide elevation and make the base feel less chunky and a tad more elegant. It might be that they work better IRL than in photos as well. Thanks again, appreciate you taking the time to look and write!

Thank you. Appreciate you taking the time to notice some of the smaller details! 🙏

Thank you! I’m quite pleased with the color palette and balance between the different colors myself. Although I wish medium tan was more actual "medium tan" rather than the "medium-light nougat" it is in reality.

Thanks, yeah, haven’t seen a lot of Rings of Power MOCs at all, but I guess that’s not too surprising 🙂 But no matter what you think of the show, there’s undeniably lots of pretty scenes and locations to be inspired by at least 🙂

Queen regent Míriel, Galadriel and the mysterious Halbrand meet for the first time in the king’s court in Armenelos, capital of the kingdom of Númenor.

Thank you! Yes, better photos and a video tour is on my todo list.

My Ninjago city went to its first convention a couple of weeks back. Here’s some pictures showing Ninjago City Resorts next to my others MOCs (the two 32x32 baseplates left of it + the pavilion bridge). The other parts of the city is made up of official sets, modified sets, water baseplates and a MOC from Rebrickable (Ninjago City Expansion 2 by brickgloria). Total size is about 45000 bricks and 128x128 studs.

Epic design, looking forward to seeing the finished dragon hall!

Epic, love it!

Thanks @Grin! Even though Ninjago City is supposed to be a chaotic, bustling metropolis, I find that it helps to chunk up this kind of large, busy build with the help of color for it to not be perceived as cluttered. Especially when this is only a fraction of the total city footprint as in the case of my, and most other Lego cities (pardon the lack of pictures of it in context, I’ll add some once I’ve taken proper pictures).

Thank you! The sign was actually the thing that initiated this build. The movie version of Ninjago City is full of huge signs on the buildings but the official sets lack them altogether.

Wonderful, very clever parts usage. Great work!

Awesome project and progress, following!
