tip 5 is a huge one for me, something i personally struggle with sometimes but you just have to keep in mind that yes, someone’s moc might be better than yours but you should always be proud of what you’ve made and appreciate your own builds for what they are
Great tips coconut! The fifth one really hit hard, I’ve been having this problem with myself for a while. I think one of the main problems with mocs nowadays is that people pile way too many minifigs onto them which just makes the build look really messy.
Great tips Coconut! Love the video mate and as always well delivered. I think the last tip has been most helpful to me. It's hard sometimes wanting to do as well as others but not having the skills or pieces to get there yet and it's important to just appreciate others work and then try to apply some of what they are doing to your own ideas. Comparing to YOUR previous moc is a great strategy.
Thanks, this was a hard lesson to learn especially since I take moc building so seriously as I want to do this full time at some point. I felt like if mine were so far behind others moc I would never be able to make the channel into something but as I focuses more just improvement a lot of that frustration went away.
Hey, I have just come across your videos, watched 3 in a row and subbed lol after starting my AFOL journey in January 2023 I recently grabbed a base plate and PAB wall parts from Lego store and parted out a load of small sets I started my journey with. Feeling inspired to learn about moc building before engaging in battle lol I come across your channel and it has so far been so extremely helpful. Great content and I cant wait to watch more. I wish you all the Best Buddy! Thankyou for the Videos you make!
Awesome idea for a video! All of these were great tips! I’ve never used lights in my mocs because I’ve also been intimidated but I might have to step out of my comfort zone and try something new
I’ve been dealing with some health issues as of late, and building/customizing has really been a good thing for me, when I can do it, but I’ve been “stuck” since I accidentally dropped and destroyed most of what I built (a Tatooine moc) But anyway, this video really gave me some great ideas! I think I’ll approach the issues I ran into last time in a better way now that i can see where to improve
I like these videos of yours. They are helpful. Maybe you can consider making a "MOC for starters"- Flowchart, of what to do in what sequence to guarantee you finish something, if you havent yet. I know many people built like 20 LEGO sets, that are increasingly getting technical and polished, with higly specialized pieces, but onle 1-4 of these pieces each, so they feel intimideted to build something on their own because 1. it will suck, compared to the A-Model so they might not even want to break it apart, and 2. even if they spent like 500€ on LEGO, they still seem to be very limited in what they can "freely" build.
I really think the guy who spends the most money usually has the best or most detailed MOC because we all know that it certainly isn't cheap to do this
Wow thank you so much for this. It was very helpful. We are just starting to try to build Star Wars MOCs and this is very helpful for us. You have so many cool videos here. Thanks.
Well, imo your biggest mistake is that you put plates (mostly 4X4 plates) in a line so the terrain looks not do natural. I recomend putting more 1X1 & 1X2 plates in combination with 2X2, 1X2 and 1x1 plates so that the plates looks more like a little hill our something like that. Hope i could help you. :)
In all our human activities, learn from others and find inspiration. But don't condemn yourself because you are not "there". Day by day, study, practice, review and compare with your own past.
I have a hard time figuring out what to build I yearly enter the 4h fair lego and they love bigger stuff not smaller detailed stuff so it have the hardest time figuring out what to build

Great tips! Thanks for taking the time to help me and other lego fans by making this video :)
Of course! I would like to do more of these in the future.

Great insightful tips. Number 5 resonates with me on so many levels. Zen and the Art of Lego Building!
ya, it's an important thing to remember.
There is always bigger fish (i think that quote was from Qui Gon Jin)😂😂😂
Very good tips! Please do videos like this.
For sure.
Awesome idea for a video! All of these were great tips! I’ve never used lights in my mocs because I’ve also been intimidated but I might have to step out of my comfort zone and try something new
I get that lights were pretty intimidating to me as well. They seemed so complicated but once you try it it's pretty simple.
Great video mate! Love the mind set thing and the new tequnequs
Thanks man glad you enjoyed it.

@@coconutbricksstudios thanks
Great attitude!!
Thank you. I gained a lot of knowledge and I will study harder and do interesting Lego
I really think the guy who spends the most money usually has the best or most detailed MOC because we all know that it certainly isn't cheap to do this
Im gonna make sure to use these tips if i ever make a moc, thanks
Wow thank you so much for this. It was very helpful. We are just starting to try to build Star Wars MOCs and this is very helpful for us. You have so many cool videos here. Thanks.
Awesome video!

I have that exact shirt
Hey I have that shirt!
i have barely any lego bricks, but i can still make some pretty nice mocs
sick video bro
Ty so much
I am making a WW1 moc but star wars styled, any good tips to better incorporate the clones in?
All of these seem to be aimed at scene/location builds. Any advice for character/mech builds?
Awesome sauce
I think I commented this once thanks so much
Of course!
My brother has the same shirt your wearing
My question is where to get a good range of bricks studs and tiles stuff to build it the moc
Why am I even watching this. I don't have time to build mocs, I'm in college.
For the future mocs you will make.
@@coconutbricksstudios Your right. One day I will build mocs again. These are good tips btw
No hate but, i can give you some tipps to improve your mocs. No front, i like your mocs but there are some parts where you could've done better.
I am always open to suggestions.
Well, imo your biggest mistake is that you put plates (mostly 4X4 plates) in a line so the terrain looks not do natural.

This helped me a lot thanks. Subscribe
I have a hard time figuring out what to build I yearly enter the 4h fair lego and they love bigger stuff not smaller detailed stuff so it have the hardest time figuring out what to build
That can be tough, I have started to enjoy medium sized mocs more and more it's the perfect blend of detail and size.
@@coconutbricksstudios cool
If I make a clone moc should I use the clones I have 2 normal and 3 501st
Does anyone know if there is lighting kits that plug into the wall ? I can only find battery powered ones ..id like to put them all one power strip
I hope you’ll respond but do you get customs and if so where
I just buy decals and make my own custom clones.
@@coconutbricksstudios oh ok thanks
