Oh, that is very, very nice. My favorite aspect (amongst many) is the fact
that the whole town is "raised up" above sea level, and this continues
upwards as you get towards the edge. I love that look, as it is quite a
change from the traditional "everything on one plane" town view (and it
takes a lot of parts and planning to make it look as realistic as your
does). Building a realistic slope is not easy (at least not for me).

I also really like the fish logo in front of the store, and the fact that
you took the effort to use Lego lettering instead of printing a sticker off
an inkjet printer.

Thanks, Mark!  I try to build most of my creations up off the baseplates
because I think it adds to the realism since a lot of what we see in life is
not on flat ground.  But, as you said, it requires some extra planning and
parts.

Excellent work, Jason.  I really like the overall "feel" of this village.

Could you share some thoughts about the "planning and parts" that were
required in raising the buildings off the baseplate?

Lift well,
