The use of custom made stickers certainly emphasises the quality of your builds, LT.
This looks great.

I can't see anyone throwing up outside the pub; or is it one of these modern ones that serves funny named coffee?

I am hanging onto fifth spot in the forum by a thread so I am glad these pictures have been released because I was getting curious about what your town was looking like along the main street legohappy

Are we likely to see some of the small specialty shops from previous builds returning in the future ???

Lol @ the Taco Tuesday guy watching the guy getting arrested!! Slightly creepy, but i like it legolaugh

That technic piece is also used as the search light in the modular cinema if I'm not mistaken.... (hooray for random trivia!! legoeyeshutlaughing

)

Looking great tho LT, I look forward to more!

I always enjoy waiting and then viewing your instalments of the quality brickmanship that you offer us, it is inspiring and a pleasure.

One of these days I will make the effort to return to the place I call my second home in the hope your exhibiting it !!!

Farmers Union, anybody, arrrgh, just the way I like it legowink

Keep on bricking Lightningtiger legowink

by **Lightningtiger** Thu 30 Oct 2014, 10:35 pm

Yeah, almost 'FS'.....only about two months shorter than little old me ! legolaugh

And gee......keep on bricking.......I haven't heard that one for along time ! legolaugh

I changed to Brick On because it sounds less nerdy ! legolaugh

Now back on topic, I hope to fix all the Stobie poles by mid-week.....next week that is.
There will be more changes made, but not till after the TC show in a few weeks time......keep watching ! legowink

by **Lightningtiger** Fri 31 Oct 2014, 12:05 pm

I've decided to make a special roof section similar to the one on the bank to give the pub a better realistic look. Once I have that and the Stobie poles done that will be it until after the Toy Corner mini-show......then more changes for 2015 (any suggestions for you might like to see post them).......keep watching ! legowink

by **Free Spirit** Fri 31 Oct 2014, 3:13 pm

A few years ago you built a few mini shops like a butcher, chemist and newsagency.

As you know I liked them and have often thought that they would make a return but to date they've remained out of existence, unpopular I guess ???

by **Lightningtiger** Sun 02 Nov 2014, 11:53 am

Well, they might......at least the chemist maybe add the butcher......see how the money goes.....usually not far enough......keep watching !

I see a cloud in the sky if you all use your imagination and could it be Dirty Harry heading into the refurbished Railway Hotel to grab refreshments.
