I only have a few of my sets assembled right now, I simply don't have enough space at the moment. Also from time to time I sell some sets to invest the money in new sets. I hope in the not so distant future I will be able to dedicate a whole room or part of the attic to my bricks. Then I can do a room tour.
Great looking build. I really like the contrast of the chaotic eruption with the geometric structure of the town below. I'm not sure how important it is to be historically accurate in the layout of the town. I agree it's the idea of the thing that counts. It's clear that we're looking at Pompeii. I admire your calm response to the incorrect pieces! Only one small 'damnit!' Question: when you disassemble, do you mix your non-lego parts into your lego parts, or do you store them separately?
In general I prefer accurate models but in this case here I'm absolutely fine with the cartoonish approach. I think this is more or less the best you can do when you want to keep the style of Lego's Great Pyramid of Giza. Normally I store Lego pieces seperately. I have a big box with Lego pieces prior to the colour palette revision of 2004 and a box with later pieces. Bricks by other companies have their own box but here I don't distinguish between the companies, the pieces all end in the same box. When I disassemble a MOC and there is the possibility that I will reassemble it one day then I store Lego pieces and alternative pieces all in the same little box dedicated to that MOC.
Can you please make a video giving us a tour of all your builds? That would be fun!
