  • In this LEGO city update I start building the massive mountain! The mountain sits right behind the zoo and will cover the first raised platform that supports the Ninjago modular buildings. In this video I add the raised platform and build the base layer of the mountain. I still need to figure out how I am going to treat the countryside and add details... but so far so good!

    It's quite staggering when you see the rock wall on your desk and think, wow this is enormous. Then you showed the overhead shot of the city and I swear I couldn't even see it. The city is just gigantic! It's looking amazing!

      Came here to say the exact same thing, he shows the view from upstairs and I'm like why didn't he put the giant mountain in there, walks down the stairs and I still didn't see it till he pointed it out. Looks great Jordan.!!

      Felt the exact same. Really puts the size into perspective

    That first “cavern” you put in would look really good with a waterfall there flowing into the zoo and adding water in there!

      The water flowing into the zoo could become part of the aquarium.

      That will be good

    @AidanRickard หลายเดือนก่อน +12

    Consider a more gradual incline for the base of the mountain edge in the countryside area, as opposed to the normal steep cliff edges you have made with previous mountains. This way the mountain will look more natural in the rural part of your city, and more 'cut into' in the more urban areas. You can always get steeper as you go higher, which is more realistic for mountains.

    It would be cool to put the Bears against the mountain and give them a small cave built into it

      thats a cool idea

  • @jacobgingerhoffman7816
    @jacobgingerhoffman7816 หลายเดือนก่อน +27

    With the cliffs behind you can make caves for animals to expand the zoo and give more space to the animals.
    Keep up the great work. Watch all your videos for years.

    Some rolling hills with trees would look good leading up to the mountain. You can add a distinct tree line to the top of the mountain.

  • @caronmills8983

    That's a lot of work. Little picnic areas on the rock work overlooking the zoo and city would help break it up a bit

    BURPs are super useful for terrain building. It doesn’t even take many more pieces to make them look good.

  • @24zbennett
    @24zbennett หลายเดือนก่อน

    Flip some of the big mountain pieces with the “inside” facing out. Gives more of a realistic look while still using the same piece. You can still blend using the same technique and gives a better overall look!

    Have you considering adding a separate train-loop a while up the mountain? I think that would be really cool with a train going in and out of tunnels up in the middle of the mountain!

  • @thomasschultz6738

    you could use under the wood of the mountain supports as places to store lego empty boxes you want to keep haha easy hidden storage

  • @1St8ment
    @1St8ment หลายเดือนก่อน

    The inset part of the mountain wall actually looks perfect for the waterfall. Water carving out a part of the mountain like nature does and the way it's sitting now it's a waterfall in two parts making it a bit more interesting.

  • @northrunner8914

  • @Metalizer
    @Metalizer หลายเดือนก่อน

    if the part of the mountain will be used as a part of zoo's enclosure it would be great to make a cave in that spot.

  • @samwalker8893
    @samwalker8893 หลายเดือนก่อน

    This is what we talking about…. Bricksie back… all you needed was holiday…. Lets get building….
    Where you talk about the narrower platform on top of mountain, that could be the ninjago mountain temple, similar to your older one, so the temple is at the very top looking down into the city, and each quadrant can have its own mountain topper relevant to the locality, the city can have some apartments, the countryside has mountain view observatory, ninjago has temple, theme park has a ride station on a cliff drop or observation tower etc, the snow village has santa shack and ski lodge run start…. Each has its own side and separate peak element but each unique to its feature on is face side view

  • @tomtebby7408
    @tomtebby7408 หลายเดือนก่อน

    Finally mountains! Been really looking forward to seeing how this pans out. Scrap the zoo and let the animals roam free on the mountain.

  • @Angrist17
    @Angrist17 หลายเดือนก่อน

    The inset variation on the rock panels is a good start to prevent it from looking too uniform. I like the depth changes. Before you get too far into it, you should consider putting a cave or two in the bottom of the mountain to integrate with the zoo enclosures. A could of animals poking their heads out of the rocks will add some neat scenes.

    If are still planning an elevated railway line, it would be cool to see if you could get it to snake through the mountain.

  • @alonewolf190
    @alonewolf190 หลายเดือนก่อน

    Mountain looks epic. Going to look even better with detail, slopes and foliage. I would make the country side gradient quite subtle. I think it would be cool to have some massive rolling hills before the mountains

  • @richardrussell4022
    @richardrussell4022 หลายเดือนก่อน

    Loving the rock work so far! You don’t give yourself enough credit for your more organic building. It looks great! If I may make a suggestion, I wish you would channel your eye for organic design towards the zoo design. Most zoos have wandering paths and offer unique viewing angles based on the animal and needed enclosure. The large dual level walkways really take up a lot of room that could be used for stories, more organic walk ways and varying elevations.

    • @richardrussell4022
      @richardrussell4022 หลายเดือนก่อน

      Put another way. Think about the concept of your campground, how natural it is and apply that to your zoo. Zoos really try to mimic habitat as much as they can. Stark walls and glass take a way from that. Imagine embedding some glass into rock work as a viewing area. Or an elevated wooden platform with an enclosure with angled netting that keeps the animals from jumping out and allows a more natural view from above without needing windows at all. That sort of thing.

  • @MrBois
    @MrBois หลายเดือนก่อน

    Your elevation really helps show off more details of your city. Plus the mountain is really taking shape and becoming a focal point. I'm really liking the mountain building, I look forward to watching it grow.

  • @carlsmith653
    @carlsmith653 หลายเดือนก่อน

    Are you open to reconsidering the zoo structure? How about taking a look at how some more natural zoos design their enclosures. Singapore zoo would be a good starting point.

  • @TheDutchStarWarsGuy
    @TheDutchStarWarsGuy หลายเดือนก่อน

    Good start! I'd love to see some waterfalls along the sides of the mountain to link up with the existing water in the city.

  • @PleegWat
    @PleegWat หลายเดือนก่อน

    I think the rock face is a bit too much in the same place. Consider pulling an 8-brick step-up inside the zoo somewhere; this will dampen the suddenness of the cliff and give you some more geography to play with inside the zoo.

  • @KIMG69

    Wow the scale is crazy… I imagine an order of 10,000 BURPs will be placed soon

  • @katjasortberg
    @katjasortberg หลายเดือนก่อน

    you should consider making a mountain range with a valley in between so there are two mountains rather than a huge mountain think it will make it more realistic also you can also possibly have a river train and road in the valley. Love your channel. 😊

  • @lkibbler
    @lkibbler หลายเดือนก่อน

    First I have to congratulate you on a very successful video today! It was entertaining and informative. The voice over is a great way to do it. You speak clearly about what you’re building without rambling and repeating yourself and you get to crank your tunes while building. Very good job on the filming of the timelapse sections. What a night and day difference between today’s video and yesterday’s.
    Also we both think everything you built today looks awesome. The mountain looks great behind the zoo and it’s going to make your whole layout far more interesting. Whoever said you build crappy mountains doesn’t know what he’s talking about. So far your framework for the mountain is great. Good job!

  • @beakyb100
    @beakyb100 หลายเดือนก่อน

    A mountain should be at least a 1000 ft AMSL. Even at 3 times the height your at, you'll be barely higher than the tallest buildings in the city. Think of the mountains you saw in some of the dioramas in Billund, they were enormous!

  • @FragileExistence
    @FragileExistence หลายเดือนก่อน +2

    Great start, dude! I think you were saying yesterday that you thought the countryside train line should be in a bit of a gorge with the eventual hill going up sharply on either side, but maybe just making some of that section into a tunnel underneath rolling hills that eventually meets the mountain could make sense?

  • @jeremyd5287
    @jeremyd5287 หลายเดือนก่อน

    Great looking start to the mountain. Maybe somewhere else along the mountain, add a mineshaft or a cave going into the mountain.

    • @kdatkins77
      @kdatkins77 หลายเดือนก่อน

      I totally think he should incorporate some of the city mining sets into a mining operation in the country side. Maybe, just behind the industrial looking train yard/harbor area. Around the corner for the zoo!
      Imagine the cook scene that could be created if a mine tunnel accidentally "broke through" into a cave from the bear or puma enclosure! My $0.02 worth!

    I apologize if this is a suggestion you've seen multiple times, or have addressed already in the past, but have you ever considered making inserts for the pop up holes you have? I'm picturing something like your sit stand desk that can be raised and lowered, but also has wheels so that it can be moved for when you need to work in that area.

    Wow! It’s mindblowing to see the mountain rising on your building table vs being placed in the city! The scope of the Lego city is huge! Have you thought of using the MURPs, BURPs etc sideways as attached to SNOT bricks? They would cover more area for a while when you develope the mountain range 😉

    Looks so so cool and it’s easy to visualise now how diverse it will look once you add slopes plants waterfalls frodo, samwise and Gollum escaping monkeys and all sorts of other fun details to it.
    That noise doesn’t sound like wood sliding across a table to me 😏I heard too much Tim hortons coffee can produce such noises. 💨 😜

  • @gambit3641
    @gambit3641 หลายเดือนก่อน

    Think you should just finish off the back of the zoo instead of trying to incorporate it into the mountain and will make the fence look better. Also think zoo looked better as a grid giving the animals more room instead of the angled viewing areas which made each area smaller

  • @rosemorrison7075
    @rosemorrison7075 หลายเดือนก่อน

    Hi Bricksie.
    The mountain is looking good so far! I think some rounded shapes in addition to slopes will also add realism. Yout different colours will look good too. Way to go and a great start to the hub of the City.
    The beach looks fantastic, as does the ocean. My husband suggests making the waves nearer the shore longer.

  • @epee11c
