First off, we have the 3rd floor lobby for the Moonbase, as well as many of the rooms we had last year. We are going to
make the Moonbase thinner and longer, so
that modules aren’t buried on the inside, also this will give us a chance to
do some interesting creative details. This also means we will need more
endcaps.

With the moonbase longer and thinner, spread out in the lobby, it should look
really great. A suggestion though, to help avoid the “crowding” of last year,
why not add more blank plates, and more simple corridors. Generally (but not
always) when somebody builds on a single 48x48 baseplate, they tend to build
upwards very quickly. This can block out the modules that are behind one
another. By adding in blank baseplates and simple regular height (about 18 brick
or so) corridor modules everything gets spread out, and less crowding ensues.
Perhaps if you bring a module, also try to bring one of the following: an extra
blank baseplate, a simple corridor module, or an end cap or two. (make sure to
write your name on the back of the blank baselate with a sharpie marker). I know
simple corridor modules aren’t as fun to build or show off the full extent of
ones creative abilities, but spreading out the whole display will make everyones
modules look better. And the blank baseplates will provide more room for roaming
space vehicles.
Thoughts?
Adam.

| (...) Along with the thinness, we are also going to arrange modules so that tall ones are behind the short ones. The display is going to be ~3 modules wide, so it would work like Tall-Medium-Short. This should give equal viewing access to all of the (...) (19 years ago, 1-Jun-05, to lugnet.space, lugnet.events.brickfest, FTX)
