    Hey Bricksie, Love the recent progress on the lego city and amazing content overall. Just had an idea where when you are finalizing the placement of the skyscraper block/chunk, it would be cool if you moved the construction zone set closer to this block so it appears as though a new skyscraper is being added. Keep up the great work and we all appreciate the dedication you put into your craft

    it might be really cool to try to make some kind of a green skyscraper (green as in environmentally friendly covered in plants etc altho im sure you could pull off the color as well), I would love to see a design of that from you I also love the new designs they look great

    The nugget scyscraper doesnt need interior as you dont see it but the white black one deffinetely needs interior as you can see clearly inside,so that could be a great new moc project for you

    For the second skyscraper, you could ask your lego building friends or even subscribers to build one floor each (maybe with a certain theme locked in) and then showcase those and insert them in the building.

    love your channel and your city but im not a fan of the skyscraper project. i think it blocks a lot of sightlines and it lacks the level of detail your city normally has. love to see the amusementpark fully tiled and finished, it looks awesome.

    Bigtown Bricksie!!! Love the incoming height to your city!! As another growth project I'm thinking you could modify the diner to go on top of the bowling alley. Then you use the roof as an outdoor area to the diner and you gain another base plate free in the city!!

  • @timgomolka644
    @timgomolka644 Рік тому +5

    For the raised section that you want to make, why not leave the road at the height that it currently is and just elevate the buildings in the middle. You could then connect the sidewalk to raised section with steps and slopes.

    • @fritskroon9285

    Love it! The black and white tower is just what I thought it should be. With offset floors and an arcade on the ground floor using the black and white contrast. Wow. If it were to sit further back in the city the empty floors might not be so obvious.

  • @TheBrickGP
    @TheBrickGP Рік тому

    Looking interesting but I really think it would be better with an interior as it will add a story. You’ve learned a lot from your mansion build and doubling the modular building so seems a perfect time to put those skills to the test! Plus you could use the abundance of minifigs in there!

  • @zoeys3346
    @zoeys3346 Рік тому

    The sky scraper could incorporate lofts, built at a later time. Apartment style. But also, the tan should be used for flower boxes, or detail on the SNOT bricks to tie the colors truly together.
    I'm severely jealous you found lavender masonry bricks. I'm primarily a FRIENDS collector.

  • @logandrums23

    @Data.Bricks Рік тому +1

    Said it yesterday, but I still really like the nougat tower. The roof and ground floor look really fitting. Only minor suggestion would be to add some black inverted slopes to the roof panels that hinge to close up the little gaps. But you can barely notice them so either way it looks really nice!
    Also Simon absolutely killed it with the ground floor of the black and white building (maybe it should be called The Zebra lol)

  • @mattgaskill7720

  • @poetryinmotion7726

    You should turn the brown building into something like the CN tower and just fill the inside with stairs leading up the top, and just have a viewing spot for mini figs at the top.

  • @brickinitLego
    @brickinitLego Рік тому

    Not looking too bad but I was hoping for a more 1930s-1960s vibe with the skyscrapers. The more brutalist look doesn’t do the city many favours. Seeing as they were made to consume parts I understand the choices made but there could have been so many more architectural elements added to help them blend with the construction site and daily bugle. A previous comment I saw mentioned turning the pillar in to a skyscraper and I like the idea but think you could take it further. You could keep the pillar fairly slim and plain but add a wide dish high up for a space needle tower type of look. It would really bring the pillar in to the city much more and give you a unique landmark that would be tough to add without the support that the pillar gives you.
    Nice to see the city as it continues to evolve. Keep it up.

    Overall I just wanna say thanks for keeping me busy, entertained, and kept to a room where I can’t annoy the wife to much.
    I’m sure you relate

  • @morayfirthfireworks
    @morayfirthfireworks Рік тому +1

    Sorry, but the black and white skyscraper is a backwards step in building techniques. It looks like you have built up around it and it's the last to be updated. This is my personal opinion and you're city 😊

  • @pablochavez2817
    @pablochavez2817 Рік тому

    I think it’d be cool to turn that building that’s under construction into a skyscraper that’s being constructed. You could just add the structure of the building that goes higher than it already is and it’ll look like a skyscraper that’s being built

  • @dannyl-p1543
    @dannyl-p1543 Рік тому +2

    I have to say I'm not a big fan of the sky scraper themselves... you would never see a skyscraper with a stopped roof like that since the snow falling from it could kill people... I think the opportunity to either have a green house on top or some sort of green patio maybe

    • @dannyl-p1543
      @dannyl-p1543 Рік тому +2

      Also for the next sky scrapper, please look up the bosco verticale towers in Milan, I think something like would be absolutely beautiful in lego minifigure scale

  • @j-norbs
    @j-norbs Рік тому +1

    i’m always amazed by your/Simon’s builds. one idea for your sky scrapers is to make the base a parking garage, you’ll often see parking garages serving as the first few floors of taller buildings in dense cities, gives height and saves on glass, also could be used to free up speed champion space.

  • @gabbygirl1292
    @gabbygirl1292 Рік тому +1

    The sky scrapers are great. You might want to move the Daily Buggle over and maybe even the building under construction. They would probably look good on the other side and then you would be able to the move the shorter buildings onto another block. Just a thought. Looking good

    Suggestion: run some nougat masonry up through the gray sides. Like just a scattered pattern. I think it would tie the roof in a bit better.
    Looks awesome either way.

  • @CourseCTRL
    @CourseCTRL Рік тому

    Hey, Bricksie! I think that the nougat colored tower would look great with trans-black windows. It makes sense if you don't have that many parts in trans-black, but I think that would look great, because that window color just reminds me too much of City sets.

  • @screamingparrotproductions

  • @brickbro1993
    @brickbro1993 Рік тому

    Wow, I really like the way the skyscraper block is coming along! Those two buildings seem super well done! I like the masonry and design of the first building. It definitely gives a classic old style New York/Sanctum Sanctorum style build. Simon did a super good job with the second building! I love the offset of each floor as it adds depth and interest to the building. Definitely could that being a tech company headquarters or even a luxury apartment building. I know you said you wouldn't put any floors or interior details in the first building (which I 100% agree with because you won't see it either way) but, it might nice just to add a little lobby just make it lively at the base of the building and maybe some more opportunities for story telling.

    Oh, my word! The offset black and white tower is epic! I love it. In my head I've been naming it the Humbug Tower (after the sweets). Do you have Humbugs in Canada? They're a stripy, black and white, boiled, minty sweet with a chewy centre and they're rather good. I admire your continued dedication to your city and UA-cam channel. Thank you, Bricksie (and all of Team Bricksie)

    I think you should switch roofs on these two - there are now too many colors on each building. The "nougat" building should have roof with trans-dark blues windows and the roof on the "black and white" should have trans-clear windows. I would also make the entrance for the nougat building grey or black, the light tan adds another color which is not present anywhere else on the facade

  • @BloodShotAirbrushing

    Just a thought, the sanctum bottom would look killer as the ground floor for the nuget skyscraper?
    Also, I think it would be a little more realistic if you had the white and black building all white floors then all black floors... I think it definitely has a "modern" feel. But I think your city has a more classic look.
    Just some simple thoughts from a simple man... 😂
    I Always enjoy the channel!! 🤘😎
