For the lighthouse, could you insert a few black panels in the glass in the direction facing wild-west? A number of lighthouses have blank panels that face inland for the same reason that the lights don't direct their beam that way.

Some type of diffusion screen might work, too. The light looks good from up close but shouldn’t affect the western area too much.

I would put 3 out of 4 lights shining out from a cross, looking down, leaving the direction facing the Wild West free. Then pulse the lights to simulate turning, similar to modern warning lights on trucks with long/wide loads .

I've been looking forward to watching this all day and it truly did not disappoint. Seeing the city lit up for the first time made me gasp out loud. It's so stunning. It was also fun seeing the moon base which I don't think I've seen before. Looking forward to seeing all that you accomplish in the next year! It's my dream someday to be able to see this in person when you open to the public.

If you're looking to add to the blank space near the airport, you could do hangar bays for smaller privately owned planes. Maybe a flight school. You could even have one of the hangars include a mafia story, maybe the counterfeited money being exported.

a helipad on a tower complex, a hangar bay or three, a few cropdusters and a few light aircraft for private/flight school use, a small emergency services building containing medics, police, and fire. and also possibly add a military aircraft, and also a launch site. have a small water feature like many airports have (to possibly use as a water source for fires), and then have a aste recovery (dump) on the border of the empty space. and then it adds to the story. mafia getting rid of countefiet money, and those who asked too many questions, like a mouthy blonde news reporter. lol

I just want to say keep up the good work for 2024…I absolutely respect your progress and I’m glad to witness it grow 👍

for the wheat field, i think a little harvester tractor would really add some life to it just by having an empty path of dirt behind the tractor showing that its gathering the wheat.

same with a small airplane to act as a cropduster. with it flying low and angle the wands a bit like the backdraft is blowing it away.

Something I would love to see in regards to the lights (unless you've already implemented it): if the lights would turn on gradually as night gets closer. Like streetlights turning in all at the same time, then the windows would turn on randomly. Just to add that little bit of realism.

If you've got one, it would be pretty nice to see a statue minifigure sitting on a bench in the city. Like a little tribute to someone that was possibly important to that place. There's a lot of local towns that do stuff like that, as far I'm aware.

I have a concept for the train layout: what if you have an underground train station for the airport and have the turning loop under the table? I don't know if it's possible but it would be pretty cool.

@ampelogardenboy

And it would also leave more room at the surface of the table for a modern city district, which blends nicely with underground metro stations. Because if it's going to be a modern city district it also needs room for some roads for cars. Maybe a police shootout inspired by "HEAT" (1995) that ties in to the mafia subplot. Who knows?

I point this out every video but it seems like he is not going to do that. Unfortunately, I may say. Also, he has space to complete a nice double-track between station 1 and 2 but the double-track will be used only for train storage...which I think it's a little bit of a delusion: I would have loved seeing trains passing each other between station 1 and 2 and waiting for their turn to pass outside of that. Also, having the line diverging under the mountain and the loop near the airport, you could simulate single-track operation on both directions. Unfortunately for train fans such as myself, I don't think the trains will be involved in some complicated sequence but only a loop with different trains every now and then.

I love your city so much! The ... ehm ... only thing I was a bit afraid of is honestly the airport. It is such a contrast of the flat empty spaces to the rich, colorful and detailed city. That being said... I fully trust your creativity and talent to bring it to life! Best wishes

Can’t wait to see the skate park! Not sure what you have in mind but I’d love to see what you could do regarding graffiti, especially on a non-flat surface, like a curving ramp. There could even be some things missing around the city (like parking barriers, signs, barrels, traffic cones) that skaters have stolen to skate on. Unsanctioned DIY skate parks have so much more character and history than municipal ones, and under a bridge is the perfect place!

Maybe you already know the reason so many skate parks pop up under bridges, but in case you don’t, there IS a good reason, underpasses usually have 45 degree uphill embankments, and sometimes banked or curved bases to the road support pillars, both of which are fun to skate

Couple of things to note: - Be careful with the Lighthouse, if its bright enough to cause issues for the Wild West section, it may be too bright for a display for the public, especially for children on eye level - The boat currently in the harbour looks like its sitting very high in the water, you may need to take off some of the bottom part - Maybe consider having angled mirrors positioned above your displays so people can see the further back/hidden parts, it will also help those who are smaller or standing further back - Also a much harder but cool suggestion, maybe have a screen showing a POV video of the trainline thats sync'd up with the trains.

Dude after living in Minneapolis MN for 24 years, your city sounds fantastic in terms of transit and accessibility options. Deadass, American city planners could learn a thing or two from this.

As your mountain is open at the back, it will be nice to make a kind of military secret base or something else like that. With the train under, I’m sure it will be fun !

Honestly, your Lego city is a testament to your talent and hard work. What you’ve created is like no other on KZread and you should be proud; it’s truly amazing. I’ll be visiting Germany in 2025 from Australia and I sure hope your museum is open by then - I would love to come see it in person.

Though I only joined this incredible journey around a year ago, seeing the development of the city was amazing to watch, I and many others certainly love this series and look forward to seeing more of your videos, happy late new year everyone!

A couple things. 1. I think having a car going in or out of the parking garage would help to highlight the garage and look good. 2. In the wild west moc, where the outlaws are breaking out the prisoner if you moved forward in time a little and actually showed the building breaking open it would look really cool and probably be fun to design.

All looks absolutely stunning the attention to detail is insane, always a joy to follow your city's journey ❤

you should make a playground with a sandpit and a colorful playset for all the children of the city!!

@brandonwaters101

3 ай бұрын

I was watching the city build video and my 4 year old just kept asking where was the playground!

Excellent work. Couple ideas that occur to me as i watch this: 1. Since the story telling is such an important part, you could add a shuttle and launching platform in the city airport. This could tie the city to the moon base. Would also allow you to add something like a university to the city, where astronauts, biologists, and physicists are trained. 2. Since, as you point out, the majority of humans presence on the moon would be underground, you could build out a complex system underneath the surafce (table) of the moon surface. It would allow you to maximize the amount of detail in the smaller space, and it would represent a different type of build than the city / western town. 3. In the harbor, the lighthouse implies there are potentially dangerous rocks / channels. You could highlight this by adding a semi-expised wreck or hulk of an old ship. I think this would add a really interesting detail, and would let you play with angles in the build. Love your channel man.

This overview makes me feel nostalgic, as we've watched so many of these scenes get built and then transferred to the new location; but the lighting and sound effects take this amazing build to a completely new level!

Been watching for the last year and a half I love the city and how you build the things. Keep up the good work for another year to come.❤

It would be great to someday see the river flow into the sea. Also, the place between the tram and the rocks where people jump into the water seems a little empty, maybe add a fence there? Regarding the airport, I like that you left tire tracks in the form of black parts embedded in the road, but look closely, the rear landing gear of the planes is much wider than the track you made. If you make it a little bigger and maybe more vague and less concentrated (more dark gray details over a larger width), you'll get a more natural gradient. There is a crazy idea (I will understand if it is not recognized) to make counterfeit money using counterfeit Lego parts (I mean, using a cheap analogue for counterfeits - is a real mafia crime!). I wish you success in 2024

What you have achieved here is incredible, truly. It's also so inspiring, and I hope to someday have my own world like Harry Potter, Star Wars, or Minecraft.. Keep up the good work. I hope to meet you when I visit your museum!

You have this much support because it is easy to recognize how well you have done with your layouts. The amount of detail and work that you put into them are amazing. Great job. Looking forward to what you do in 2024. (By the way, the skid marks for the airplane runway is so freaking realistic, it is crazy)

You should make a crane and some heavy equipment vehicles, fences and minifigs with hard hats to fill in the empty lots until you get the chance to develop them like those areas are still under construction like in a real city.

This is absolutely mind blowing! 😮 When the train goes through the mountains, adding some delay for the train would bolster the illusion of the mountains being bigger than they are.

You and your brother are doing amazing work! One thought I had was to create a "P" sign for the parking garage, because it gets lost in all the gray. I'm not sure if they have those kinds of signs where you live, but they are quite common where I live (near Seattle). It might add a bit of color and interest to that area, as well as help define that area a bit more. Also wondered if you were going to build a school, like near the bridge or something to tie in the basketball court, park, etc. Not that you need any suggestions from me! LOL! Everything you do is amazing! I'm a huge fan! Keep it up!

I love not only the builds, but the stories that go along with them all. Great job!👍🏾

Love your videos. Seeing the traffic lights change gave me an idea for future lights inside houses/buildings. Basically recreate real life. At the beginning of the night lights in commercial buildings are on, people are shopping and working. Then later the lights on the ground/living floor in houses come on. Then commercial lights go off. people are done with work, and are eating/relaxing Then the bedroom lights turn on and the living room lights turn off, people are going to bed and eventually those lights go off And then the reverse in the morning Bedroom on > living room on, bedroom off > commercial on, living room off > commercial off (its light ouside) Ofcourse this would not be needed in every building, but i think it would be very cool

Cannot express how amazed I am by this. Love it man, keep it up!

This is simply AMAZING! Kudos for all the hard work you put into it, and all the best for 2024 - I have no doubts your LEGO city and the whole museum will grow and give you a lot of fun! Take care!

Although am late i have a very special idea. Would be really nice to add a lower wooden platform under the airport and the unbuilt third station and built a subway/metro line with its own little train that runs under the city. It will add a connection to the airport while also looking like the city has an extensive transportation network. Passengers can theoretically take the train from the city to the unbuilt third station and tranfer over to the metro to go the airport. Also, integrating the unbuilt station with a metro station below with a staircase will definetly make the third station the most interesting one of them all as it will become a major transportation hub for the city.

Idk if you read the comments or not but this is my favorite city. I’d love to see a blimp at the airport, or even some planes suspended from the ceiling on a motorized track. Wild West looks great, a chuck wagon in town would be cool, or a one room schoolhouse. your moon base would look cool with some mining equipment on top, or just a splash of color. I can’t wait to see what ends up in the empty spot. Happy new year and best wishes. Cheers 🍻

This is the most amazing Lego project I have ever seen and I have some ideas I woud love you to read: 1. I think the thieves coming to rob the mine in the wild west should be right under the barrels. 2. It would be very cool if you built a rocket launch pad in your Lego city too, somewhere in the empty space next to the airpor. 3. I think you should put a train station right next to the terminal like there are in many airports around the world to make it more convenient for tourists and residents to move around the city. Edit: I didn't copy the idea of rocket luanch pad near the air port, I just now saw the other comments that also suggested the idea

Love it. All of the little stories really add to the personality of the whole build, it’s brilliant. Really looking forward to seeing how the rest of it all comes together over then next few weeks/months/years. Good luck.

I've been following your updates even before you moved into this new space. This is by far one of the best City projects I've seen. It's amazing!

If you want you could try to but boards on the windows of the old factory it might make ti look more abandon. Just and idea. Love your content! (Also if you want you could also add little cloth or brick built signs on the different restaurants and business to identify them easier.)

I've just now found your channel and binge watched more than a couple of your videos. This. Is. Absolutely. Amazing. I can't imagine how long it has taken for you to get to the point you are now! The amount of details is incredible! While the video was going, I paused several times to look and see more, and try to find more hidden things. Beside the details, I of course looked carefully at the bigger builds and structures. The houses, in both parts of the city, are quite something. That technic you use with the roofs, I had heard about it and even seen some variations of it, however, that's only part of it. And this leads me to the overall design of the buildings etc. Very realistic! Also, a big fan of the train, and the airport is coming along nicely! I've done my fair share of building, though, have been on a longer break due regular to day-to-day stuff. But in recent weeks some of those annoying things have been finished or done, so I'm feeling the pull to start building again. In saying this, I think watching your videos have helped me reignite that spark within me. So thank you for that! I also want to thank you for explaining in past videos where you get the bricks and pieces from. Will need to take a look at those sources! I've also taken some extra care with observing certain things in your videos and I think I'm going to try some in my own projects. Like that wheat field, that's quite ingenious! While watching your videos, one question has started to nag me. Legos are notorious for getting dusty (like, normal dust). How do you combat this? Also, I'm loving the story element in the big city. But. Where's the police??? Is there even a police station or something??? Can't wait for what's going to be added or modified next!

Thanks for the full overview! Looking forward to the next build video!

I really appreciate that you worked so hard to include a lot of greenery in your city. It really adds a lot to the space and the overall feel of it.

Love the city so far! Its amazing! For the bandits hiding in the canyon, what if you used a white/blue light instead of the yellow LEDs for the lamps? That way it can still be visible as a point of interest for viewers, but it can look more natural like moonlight instead of them actively lighting their secret hideouts

You can improve the lighthouse by having a mechanism causing the light in the top to sweep back and fourth over something like 120 degrees. facing towards the corner of the table, such that the wild west moc and the city itself are not disturebed by the light. If you make it turn really slowly it could be even more discreet yet detailed

I seriously love that you got the numbers right for the runway alignment. Something literally no one would question if they were random, but you knew it would be cooler if they were correct. This is one of my favorite projects on the internet, I hope to be able to come see it in person someday!

I enjoy every update you have! Happy new year and I look forward to watching more.

Love it!

Love the update. Could you perhaps use darker glass in the lighthouse in for the side facing the old west section?

Absolutely love your work mate, it’s incredible!!!

These are by far my most anticipated videos and I always enjoy them in a nice couch with a good cup of tea. It would be cool to see this irl som day. Keep up the good work!

Amazing! Love to watch more of the process!

Following the progress you've made on these builds these past years has been so cool

I think if you were to somehow incorporate a bit of fog with the lighthouse, that would help with ambience and allow you to have a less powerful light.
