LEGO Pond & Creek 10x Better! Integrating Trail, Bridge, & MILS Plate!

- Today I work on improving the LEGO A-Frame Cabin MILS plate integration. The creek and pond were alright, but I had to make them at least 10X BETTER! I also blend in the massive plates with the surrounding campgrounds and add a trail leading up the arched bridge.

Looking good. Improvement suggestion...start placing buildings (such as the a-frame) at an angle. get away from having everything aligned to the grid Lego forces you into. The whole place would immediately look more natural.
I actually really like the bridge to the cabin and think it makes the scene pop. I don't think you need all the paths to match either. It makes sense to me that there would be a dirt path to the cabin as it is more rustic than the campground area.
Agreed
I feel like my suggestion I am about to make might really just be too tough to do or too time consuming, but here goes. I've always felt that the one thing that most lego cities that include grenery sections (Parks, Forest, Etc) are all missing one thing. That is differences in the grojnd level flora coloring. Instead of just being a bland green by itself (which is okay and very LEGO btw, so I am not knocking it entirely). I've always felt like the grass or forest floors need a rotation of greens, light green and dark greens with a few highlights of bright greens in certain places. As far as forest go there need to be game trails and walked paths that are made of dirt type colors (rotations of light and darker browns our nougats I suppose).
Like I said, to go back and do this would be very time consuming for you, but then again, perhaps it's the very thing your looking for without even realizing it Bricksie?
Camp is looking great! Inspiring me to complete more buildings.
The “camp table” you thought of using was from a Harry Potter bag, love it but agree it’s too big for the space 😊
I really like how the two waters are spectate also as the back one is higher you could say that they are connected underneath. Also that guy dressed as a tree is halrious, always love your storytelling.
𝙒𝙤𝙬, 𝙅𝙤𝙧𝙙𝙖𝙣, 𝙩𝙝𝙚𝙨𝙚 𝙪𝙥𝙜𝙧𝙖𝙙𝙚𝙨 𝙡𝙤𝙤𝙠 𝙢𝙖𝙜𝙣𝙞𝙛𝙞𝙘𝙚𝙣𝙩! You have made some serious headway with the campground. This has been so exciting to watch as you expand the area and beautify the scenery. It has been a true joy just sitting back and watching this space come alive once again. I am so proud of you. Thank you for sharing your vision of Brickerton with us. I cannot wait to see where the City goes from here. 🥰
💙💜💙💜💙
You could also play with the depth of the pond and creek by using lighter colours under the trans blue pieces near the banks.
Campground is really lovely. I wish I could turn into the size of a lego mini-figure and go for a walk through there.
Happy Birthday to Jose. I wish that I could do all the house chores as a gift for you both, but since you have no idea who I am, I'm sure that would just be really weird to have a stranger in the house cleaning out the diaper bin and cooking dinner for you.
SO, instead, tell her Happy birthday and I that I hope the twins have a really long nap and that they wake up happy and quiet.
Happy birthday Jordan and here is to many more happy and healthy birthdays!!!
Great Job with the campground love the city updates
All that you’ve done looks fantastic! Thanks for sharing! For what it’s worth I thought the pond looked good without being blended - there are ponds where there’s no blending but rather a cut off and I think it adds depth and dimension to the view
Happy Birthday 🎂 Mrs. B and Bricksie , you have a B-Day soon as well , so Happy B-Day to you as well 🎂 The camp ground is amazing , the brooks and streams - ponds you create are truly and simply a grand work of art !! 👍 Take care , and thanks for the video !! Dreamer
it’s going to look even better when add the figs in. fishing from the pond, hiking on the trail!
"Making", which is what you are doing, is an iterative process. I love the changes you've made to the water features. An additional change to consider would be adding some greenery at the top level (ground level) of the water features. This might help lessen some of the few stark remaining sides.
that picnic table is from one of the Harry Potter advent calendars its supposed to represent one of the great hall tables
The "fix-it guy" hanging out at the sign is a great storyline! 😆😆😆
Hi... Think about the pond as a natural spring! that way it can flow into the spring... give you a chance for it slope down towards the creek... like a flat water fall.
Suggestion: Place a backdrop of trees behind the cabin and the campground. I think it might look a whole lot cooler and would't have white background behind those making the scene super bright. Either that or growing out the rock face from the ninjago mountain to the side making it the background for the cabin and the woods. This option might be less interesting and way more part intensive!!
Where the camp ground meets ninjago and you see those bricks, just add a row of plant life or a fence along there and you won't see the colorful bricks and it will give a separation between the camp ground and ninjago.
The new fern elements from 10316 'Rivendell' will go well with the water vegetation too!
Potential alternative to bridges with your path/creek - Stepping Stones! Good opportunity for some minifigures balancing on them afraid they might fall in!
I love camping and lego so this is so satisfying
Should should add some fish jumping from the creak
Oh wow. I mean wow! A pond! A creak! And your great at foliage too! Details are awesome! You get all the sets! So many bricks and parts!
You should add animals. Like a mouse, bird, skunk or rabbit. I did see a few. This looks awesome tho.
that area is looking awesome
Hey Jordan, first of all I'd like to say - HAPPY BIRTHDAY! 🥳🎂 I hope you're having a great day 👍 I think the Cabin area is looking fantastic, you're doing a brilliant job with those MILS plates, can't wait to get my cabin so I can integrate it next to my treehouse, just waiting for the 10th Feb promo before ordering it 😀 Keep up the inspiring work, you have the best channel on CZcams!
Looks awesome. Those plates eat tons of bricks.
Happy birthday Jose!!
Grass is usually taller than a trail so it looks fine to me
Looks so much better, great work bro
This camp ground is gorgeous! My favorite part in your city. Thanks for sharing!
awesome video jordan the a frame cabin looks amazing on mils great job
Looks great!! Happy birthday!
Cool video loved all the little details. Happy birthday Jose 🎉
Love that you went the extra mile and embedded the trail to the cabin! It looks so good and I think the bridge makes sense. Plus I like how all the trails are different. You definitely have a good eye.
Woah!!! This thing area is lookin great!!! 🔥❤️
I love the way the pond looks after the upgrade, and the upgraded trail with bridge, but I'm sorry to have to say I think you've added so much to the creek edges, that the blue that shows that it is a creek is hard to see unless viewed from straight above.
Love the cabin scene
Loved this video
Looking fantastic Happy birthday to both of u have awesome time
A friend built a lake on his property and on the far side he built a gazebo with Adirondack chairs. It is a fabulous place to relax with a book. A gazebo would be nice.
This is giving me lots of ideas for my own Forest build!
I admire your creativity, I don't think that I would be able to do it. Good thing I don't have room for a lego city😃 I think you should place the tree from the A-Frame so the stream runs into the lake.
I liked the original and blended versions. Both have their own look. I agree with keeping the pond separate and it’s own feature. If you were to connect them, I’d suggest a very narrow connection. I love all that you’ve done with the campground. It looks fantastic.
Maybe use gray 1x2 tiles to make a cobblestone type path leading up to the bridge for the A frame cabin also I think the picnic bench is from the great hall set from Harry Potter I’m not to sure though
2nd the Picnic table is a harry potter banquet table from the great hall
really cool campground
Make as many bridges as you want- they all look great (and are even logical)!
Nice upgrades! 👌
Great update 🤩
Thanks
It's always a pleasure 🙏
Good video as always
I love the campground! It is my favourite part of the city! keep it up man😊❤
Happy Birthday to Mrs Bricksie
Looking so good😱😎👍 Congratulations to Josee🥳🎂🎈🎈🎈
Position the tree and canoe segment so that the water is running into either the pond or the creek. Just a little extra spring.
Happy Birthday Choay
Happy belated birthday Mrs. Bricksie!
looks so good the city looks better and better every video keep up the great work
Happy birthday boss lady someone's got to hold it together
It is really looking nice now. I think there should be a a bench under a shelter & speed limit signs by the entrance.
Happy birthday!🎉
I think it would be cool if you bought a second A frame cabin and turned it into the cabin from Gravity Falls tv series
Great idea 😍
Yes
Mystery Shack!
Yes yes yes
You should add tall grass around the pond to give it more detail it looks super good though
Great job!
Please bring the Ninjago mountain 1 brick up to blend it with the new plate
looks amazing! I think it would look good if you added the 32607 leaf piece in beige colors all around the campground to act as fallen leaves. I think it would make it look like more of a forest and less of a yard with trees and shrubs. Either way, you are doing great work and it looks really awesome!
I’m out looking forward to building the cabin trees. I think I will hand that task over to my niece.
Looking great! I would definitely address the front corner of the MILS plate of A frame cabin up by the well, it looks too angled.
I would definitely increase the side of the pond a little bit. There Is enough Green space to accommodate that
I personally enjoy how you will make a build and then come back to it the next day and improve or rebuild.
great new video, a waterfall on the back would be nice!
Congrats four your wife. Your doing a great job!👌👌👌👌
that picnic table you say is from the 30420: Harry Potter and Hedwig: Owl Delivery
happy birthday 🎂
That picnic table, I'm pretty sure that's from a Harry Potter polybag :)
I think that picnic table is from a Harry Potter polybag haha. His broom delivery one if I’m not mistaken
It looks great, just a couple of short trees and presto!
The picnic table comes from the Harry Potter Polybag 30420 😉
Yes a new video
I can’t wait for the next mansion video! Keep it up man😊
you can put the leaking water from the A cabin set to go in the pond
Happy birthday!!
i wanna see some zoo updates jordan! add an otter exhibit with those new otters the just released !!
Happy birthday Josey
Double points weekend this weekend - 2x points from 2/10 to 2/16.
Can you tell us how you attached the angled bridge?
that table is from the "harry potter and hedwig owl delivery" polybag
Nice update but I was just curious where is the burrow going in the camp ground
Love the campground. One suggestion I would make is to change the color of the gravel driveway to a dark/light tan or dark/light gray color scheme. This would look more natural than the reddish brown. To me the reddish brown looks like mud.
@BRICKSIE, Quick Question Buddy. What Bookshelves are those? Ikea Right? Billy? I looked up the Billy and the Depth is only 11inches, and I was certain that yours were deeper, like near 20inches (or 2 baseplates) of Depth? I mean, you're storing the Millennium Falcon UCS on one of those shelves for crying out loud! Yours have to be deeper than 11 inches, right?!?!?! Any chance you could tell me where to find those Bookshelves you are using, as well as around how much you paid for say 1 of them when you bought it (so I can compare for inflations to todays rates)???
If only you could add weather, clouds and rain, like a dare devil scene to popculture street, or a frozen yeti cave with a Luke skywalker scene, or a cowboy western desert scene. When you getting that warehouse again, if only we could find you more space.
happy birthday!
Hey Jordon, I know you have a million projects, but at some point you should make a star wars battle moc. I think you could do an amazing job at that. The amount of detail you user is awesome! :)
Can you please put a troll under one of the bridges??? Please
Picnic table is from a Harry Potter polly bag set.
@bricksie I think that the table is from a harry potter advent calendar as i have one
Happy birthday
You should build a custom ranger station
I think it would make more sense and look a lot better if the pond was part of the creek. The canoe would be able to paddle down the creek. If you know what I mean. Love the progress
All that random colour underneath would set off my OCD.
