And then there's all the rest of it:

- the Freight railway train coming down the hill
- the Sante Fe ...
- ... at the Metrostation
- the Metroliner (under the Sante Fe)
- "Town Square" (awesome little set - http://guide.lugnet.com/set/1592) - with the red/blue awning, yellow castle, and vendor cart
- "Gravel Quarry" (another classic - http://guide.lugnet.com/set/360_1) - in the back right corner
- various cranes, forklifts, and other "yellow" industrial vehicles
- ladder truck
- ambulance

What's the set immediately beside the Mcd's? (the blue, with the trees behind, etc.)

The house on the hill? http://guide.lugnet.com/set/1484 maybe?

And what set is the black and red building on the corner (with the two towers) representing in http://www.brickshelf.com/cgi-bin/gallery.cgi?i=705458. Is it http://guide.lugnet.com/set/6776?

Too cool!

Hey. I think this is probably my first post here. But I'm from Vancouver Island and found this forum a while back. (I'm 15 years old by the way)

Anyhow, about the model, check this out, she's making 3 versions of her real house, a nano, minifig and finally larger scale one. The larger scale one is huge and so far I think has taken her 2 years.

I sort of know her online, that's why I know this.

Welcome, dude (or dudette

)

Anyhow, about the model, check this out ...

Oh my goodness !!

That's alottabrix ...

Is that a real tat, here on her shoulder?

Is she from anywhere around here (wishful thinking, I know). We need more builders!

Oh...first I'm a guy...so to clear that up.

And as far as I know that tattoo is real...never seen anyone with a lego tattoo before.

And I forget exactly where, but she's from somewhere in the US I'm pretty sure...definately not around here.

I found that right after I'd posted, along with this.

Stunningly perfect. I have no other words. I can only aspire to someday be able to work at this level.

Love the gnarled, rock-monster tree. Pure genius.

A very cool idea!
