 | | If Lego made new Town sets... what should they be?
|
|
If Lego were to make new, non-juniorised Town sets, what would you like them to be? My top ten would be: Historic houses (ones that are likely to still exist in a modern town) Town Hall Neighbourhood park (with kids play equipment, trees, flowers, (...) (25 years ago, 18-Dec-99, to lugnet.town)

| | Dust on City
|
|
(...) Ahh, your sets are new. I thought the city was displayed for a long period of time. I have a 3' x 4' castle, nowhere near the size of your town, and I put a plastic table cloth over it. And yes, I've knocked over the odd minifig... Yeah I hate (...) (25 years ago, 17-Dec-99, to lugnet.town)

No stretching was necessary as I began assembling the Town in one go. I started at the top right (City central) and finished up at the bottom left (Pinehaven). I took photo's as I went and was able to get a bus load of closeup shots as a result. (...) (25 years ago, 17-Dec-99, to lugnet.town)

(...) I'll answer how I keep the dust off of my city-table layout. I keep a old king size bed sheet over it when I'm not displaying it. This keeps it practically dust free. John Warren (25 years ago, 17-Dec-99, to lugnet.town)

(...) I agree. Very good picture. Your pieces looked remarkably clean too. My only question is how do you get access to the middle of the city? It seems like you have to stretch about four feet to get there. Jimmy (25 years ago, 17-Dec-99, to lugnet.town)

(...) Your city looks absolutely awesome! And I could probably use a few tips on photography from you. :) I have a question: Isn't dust settling over your city a concern? How do you deal with that? Bryan (25 years ago, 17-Dec-99, to lugnet.town)

Great ideas Erik! Only you've got the wrong Italian city for the Ponte Vecchio. It is actually in Florence. The Ponte Vecchio bridge is very interesting because on top of the bridge are 2 galleries, the lower gallery consists of shops and stores, (...)
