   Hey, nifty in progress shots. Thanks for sharing!

Yeah they are pretty nifty looking.
  
So tell us about those MB Dragons baseplates, how’s the adhesion of brick to them? Are they sturdy? They seem interesting in appearance and profile and a nice potential change from the very few baseplate 3d shapes available in the LEGO line (how many different ways can the LEGO ones be printed, one wonders)

Well I know my personal experience with those plates has been overall great. I have noticed that here and there a singular stud might not have great clenching power, but when covering more than one stud they have better clenching power than LEGO baseplates far more often than not. (That may or may not be good depending on what you are doing) They are detailed enough that they are obviously “land” but generic enough that you can use them anywhere. In general I think they are great for landscaping.

(...) I absolutely agree! Once I've got them properly laid out and have them mated to each other, they're rather solid -- it seems to be a matter of making sure enough studs are devoted to the joints, and that's a simple enough adjustment -- well (...)
