I'm still trying to choose that car dealership building.....looking a lot at images of old dealers that still operate and operate out of old buildings.
Still any suggestions would be helpful thanks. legohappy

Oh, crap which one do I go with ?

Crikey, that is one Mitre 10 of a barbie as normally you would only see two people at the most cooking on such a popular Aussie pastime legochef

by **Lightningtiger** Thu 11 Oct 2012, 2:37 pm

Thanks 'FS', yeah I'm quite proud of my little BBQ.....I should have something else up tomorrow.....as long as I get the time and I remember to do it ! legolaugh

Keep watching ! legowink

lol! Although I thought matching browns for the table to give it a timber appearance would have looked nice as well.. legotounge

by **Lightningtiger** Thu 11 Oct 2012, 11:52 pm

Yeah, I thought the same but Heath at Toy Corner suggested multi-coloured would be cool.....so I thought what the hay ! legolaugh

by BrickManLJ Fri 12 Oct 2012, 9:28 am

I like that picnic setting, and I personally don't mind the multi-coloured bench. Most park benches etc. are painted anyway.

by **Lightningtiger** Sun 14 Oct 2012, 12:17 am

Thanks, nothing like a pretty picnic setting eh ? legolaugh

Anyway, I'm taking a few days off New Mannum so I don't burn out my creative spark.....keep watching anyway ! legowink

by **Lightningtiger** Sun 14 Oct 2012, 12:23 am

Oh, I forgot....any suggestions for things to go round this picnic area.
Foot-note.....plans for a general store with post office is next as part of a side project....Lego city style village. legowink
