Very impressive!  I love how you've captured the topography there.  However,
the scale is soo small that it's tough to build buildings with.  I think I
prefer your scale in the Ostia MOC.  Good luck with these endeavours!

Hi,

I've been building a lot of ancient theme stuff in micro-fig scale. I'm • planning
on bringing some to Brickfest.

Micro-fig scale is fun because you get something built quickly. I am • currently
working at scaling up one micro MOC. The finished micro version is 16x16, • the
minifig version is 64x72.

Also, I started below "Micro" with "Nano" scale where my micro-MOCs are • just 2x2
bricks. This was to focus on land masses. I use 1x1 round bricks for trees
there.

Take a look at Roma: (nano scale)

Some older micro-stuff in the enclosing folder are Ostia and • Micro-Fortuna.

It's amusing that BrickShelf receives Google ads from Royal Athena when • you open
the folder. That's one of my favorite businesses.

-Erik

This is your chance to get creative, without breaking the Lego budget. It's my pleasure to let you know about the Micro Contest and Display! I'm calling out to ALL builders . . . The ideas are endless, but here is a bit of food for thought... (...)
