Well, congrats to you, hope everything goes okay. Do consider my comment on the other clip of this build. I think you could then do more in terms of the detailing of the gate. But do make the gate towers, have mirrored buildings on them, can always put that smaller one, you currently have on the right gate tower, on the beam between both towers, straight in the middle, after adding a level of construction to it. Some of the 40K weapons, look a bit big & out of place. They need murder holes, to be honest. Like at the gate. Be more creative with those gate & wall pieces. Bottom to bottom, lets you build upside-down. Great for say spires and so on. One suggestion, have you considered a raised highway, like you can see in Fallout? That Castle must be supplied, somehow, right? When will Games Workshop challenge you to create a few Custodian Units? You would need quite a few of the smaller units, just to properly decorate the bigger units, like the tanks. Sicaran tank with a backwards Land-Raider trailer, with a connecting corridor between them. Fusion powered? Baneblade chassis, terrain fusion reactor pieces, finally the proper engine for the Custodians, they have the best of the best, that's not standaard. Yes, they have the best, and combustion engines are not the best, that's fusion power. How else will they drive their stuff on say a airless moon? With both, you need at least two Custodian hoverbikes for their curved eagles for above the forwards track cover & headlights, setup. And properly the slightly bigger one as well. It's not just gold, that they paint their stuff, in. It's also having the best of the best, with all of the options, possible, selected. So I hope they will challenge you to create Epic Custodian Transports, by kitbashing.
Just imagine doing this Not in Epic but in 40K 😮 Nice thing about Epic is you can have Titans walking around not too mention multiple types of aircraft flying around which makes for an extremely dynamic Environment in your build 😅
"You guys must be bord of watching me cut foam..." No! The foam builds you do are honestly my favorite part! Especially on this build, they're so much more approachable than even imagining buying so many GW terrain sets. Every hobby creator I've watched works with foam a bit differently, too, so it's always a part of the video where I get to learn something new, or at least be reminded of a different approach to things. So yeah, it's the part of the video I could see myself doing (albeit at a smaller scale lol) and it's a chance to absorb different techniques and approaches to foam terrain projects.
Those plastic things are pretty cool and there is so much to choose from but foam you can do more with it just takes more skill and time, its much cheaper to.@@mazikainen
Thank you so much Chrissy! Yeah it's really starting to have a bit of shape now, I think once I get the next section of wall done and the upper levels behind that we'll really start to properly feel the scope of the landscape. I've got all thes elittle silly ideas now for tunnels and undercity areas you have to literally crawl under the table to get to hahaha. Thanks for your ongoing support mate, it means the world. I always say 'patreons' in videos because in my mind that includes the channel members too, but forget to call you guys out directly silly Lachie brain.
The palace diorama is crazy amazing but I think it's lackluster in one area : bridges. Bridges are the pinacle of gothic architecture and as is, they seem to just hover around. I hope you'll go all in crazy with multi level bridges and crazy supports and pilars ! Love your work
You could color code the gates down in the trench with buildings behind the wall (green gate = green building and so on) so you units have more movement options on the battlefield
Great work, it's coming along beautifully. Also, congrats! Super proud to have watched you and this channel grow over the years, I'm sure your third is being welcomed into a beautiful family.
I will be interested to see how you can alter the baneblade turrets to give that sense of scale. Perhaps little bunkers and emplacements built onto the turrets themselves? Like little AA batteries etc. Good luck with your third child, I hope everything goes well.
You should try putting some pipes in spanning the chasm at different levels to represent things like prometheum/plasma/sewage/etc. lines going to and from the palace. Might also be worth pinching some of the gates from Legions Imperialis terrain to detail the walls and main gate more by adding sally ports so that smaller units like tanks of infantry formations can sally forth without the risk of letting in the whole heretic army.
Function is important in these large scale dioramas/gaming boards. Make sure the bridge gaps are large enough to fit a person. Will help for any last minute changes or cleaning dust in the future without dismantling or moving half a city. If it is meant to be a diorama with Legion Imperialis models set up, some jump pack units trying to jump the gap would be cool to see.
Long term when it goes on display it'll get riged for diorama, but for now we'll keep it super playable so it can be used for 30k, Dawn of War Warhammer and 30k Epic :)
I think watching evaneglion would be a good reference for this. The scale of the Nerv HQ is mind crazy especially the emplacement weapons. The base is built in a giant chasm under a city so when it’s not safe all the buildings retract down to not be damaged and skyscraper sized barricades go up. I think it would make an interesting system fighting for control of command centers to change the position of terrain to give the owners advantage. Nerv also uses extensive rail lines to move materials and I think they would create some great space for tanks or titans to move through
Oh wowwwwwwwww, that sounds like an amamzing reference, my cousin and one of my best mates are big Evangelion fans I shall hit them up for more info, thank Cirno!
Man this is amazing I can barely comprehend the scale by normal 40k but in epic scale thats even scarier Honestly i think the structure could also work for the dawn of war
LOVE the improved look of the city. I think that to capture the IMMENSE scale of the Imperial Palace and the buildings of Terra you could look into mixing in 28mm scale buildings with the new 8mm Epic scale ones kitbashed for detailing! I think that would really help bring out the insane larger-than-life grandeur of the Imperium without having to resort to blank foam stonework or stacking a zillion Imperialis tiles for the biggest structures. Like, imagine the Bastion Imperialis but with epic-scale skyscraper turrets and guns jutting from the top.
It will be a shame if one of the right tower doesn't end up with a lift off top revealing a huge dice tower opening that drops the dice down to a platform in the pit.
@@Zorpazorp Funny (not) how that works! You are sitting over a mountain of GW plastic that could be (guess it really can't) sold for times the amount needed for that...? I still can't help to think that a couple of flat slabs of plaster-molded surfaces to complete those huge expands of undetailed flat foam would help with time...? Another idea would be to use clay or dense foam and press-mold (stamp?) details? But you know better for sure! 😊 KUDOS, so far!
YES BROOOOOO That would look SWEET! That could really break up the flat expanse actually, like a big bastion that overlooks the entrance to the two causeways (second one yet to be built)
the sheer drop was an amazing idea, board is looking way better now, exited to see what the future will bring, but for now, congrats with the (maybe almost there) baby!
Thank you mate I totally agree IN FACT I'm thinking I'll make another one that wraps it around in an L formation around the main gaming area, really start to build the three different zones of gameplay
@@Zorpazorp You could cut in mini-trenches around the main board as well, maybe cheating by making the trench just an inch or two deep, but using color to imply depth.
Applying commenting protocols to soothe the machine spirit of the holy algorithm! In another note, the battle of Stalingrad, the largest battle in human history, was fought in 3D with the sewers being fought over. In fact they changed hands many times, sometimes multiple times in a day, so having some pipes to be a secret path would be a cool idea with just a little room for units to battle each other in and fight for this other path
I looked up "EPIC!!!" in the Dictionarium Imperiale, and there was just a link to this video. All the best to the entire Zorpa Zorp family with their new addition.
That is going to look awesome! Loving the new depth to the city, definitely the way forward. Finally, potential congratulations, good luck and look forward to hearing about the family expansion.
You have absolutely saved this build. I couldn't put my finger on what the problem was, but adding verticality, terracing, bridges, and buttresses has transformed it - Well done mate! Keep it up!
Completely agree Panda, I hated it before, now I've got this huge mental picture ahead of me that takes what we've got here and triples the cool factor!
I love how that even though this is a massive undertaking and project- each of the individual parts (let’s say on a much smaller scale) seems very approachable. No insane materials or tools, just a lot of good planning, creativity, and effort. Def inspiring to want to try a foam build for Kill Team! And a million congrats on your expanding family. Many prayers for a great delivery and beginning for baby.
Delicious - defined as the perfect blend of plastic and foam terrain as seen on Zorpazorp. Love the vid mate legendary as always. Good luck with the new bubs.
@@Zorpazorp we just had a baby girl a month ago too. She’s proving to be much easier than her older brother was so I think you have done well with 3 girls. I hope you guys survive the sleep deprivation!
Great video mate!! Really loved the classic big build, and could see your excitement coming through. Less rambling intro was good too, i appreciated the brevity
Amazing as always! I like how the solution to having a creative block on building a horizontal board was to build two vertical boards haha . Now you’re thinking with port(cullises)als!!
You are lucky that you love what you do because many people including myself would have an emotional breakdown and would quit. Also while going through a hard time you still kept time to look after your family. You are a incredible person to push through all the hards times and I hope that it starts to reopen for you again.
Thank you so much Oliver, that means a lot. There have definitely been times when I've been looking at returning to former careers, or other options. My patreons and Channel Members are the primary reason I can get through those really insane periods.
Congratulations! Praying everyone is safe and healthy. What you do is not easy, but it inspires me to build and experiment. Thank you for sharing your journey with the broader world.
We Working hard on finishing up all our Imperialis Terrain snd Armies! We have tow game sunder our belt so far and its been great fun! fortunately we had some Battletech terrain from a tournament wee hosted last month that fit the scale and look. Grabbing a bag of crisps and going to enjoy your video now... :)
Congrats on the baby! Board is looking way more interesting than previously. I'm looking forward to seeing how the city part pans out -- I can't fathom working at that scale (both in terms of board-size and miniature scale). Hopefully it won't feel to flat in the end.
this coming together so nicely, its amazing to follow you on that journey! One thing I liked the most were the DIAGONAL bridges in the chasm below the gate bridge...maybe you should apply that to some city blocks...some diagonal houses would really break up that blocky, chess-boardy symmetry and make it a bit more organic
Man I just love the warhammer community . Every single day I get closer to building and painting my first model. You guys are really such an inspiration!
WOW, just wow... you must think the cutting of foam and setting up the board structure can be boring but i could watch this for hours, you make it seem so fast and easy but between every cut in the video there must be so many hours of work in this, the measuring, stone work, planning, try and error, cutting and glueing... i always feel pumped to do my own hobby projects (especielly scenery stuff, but you make me want to play legions imperialis too...) every time i watch, you just bring this relentless energy (i do hope you find a bit of a breather in beetween for real life though). Also the "im old gandalf" got me good :D oh and congrats on the growing family! I cant wait to see the first tanks roll over that awesome bridge!
Hey, I hope all goes/went well with the baby! And don't worry about your viewers, family is WAAY more important! I'm a recent subscriber, and I love watching this build come together. Looking forward to seeing you back at it (and thoroughly sleep-deprived) in a few weeks.
The bridges and towers need more gothic spikes or statues. I think taking some normal scale old school marines (like the one you could get in a set of 5) would make for easy and fantastic statue detailing a long the roads and plazas
Actually we don't want gothic stuff, as his is set during the Horus Heresy, so we are deep into 200 years of the Imperial Truth, before the formation of Imperial Cult, which translated heavily into the super Gothic architectural style we know from 40k, some 10000 years later. Honestly even the statues should actually all be absent as Dorn removed them all during his fortification of the Imperial Palace, but I think even though in canon they should be gone, I think you're right they'll really help with detail so I'll probabaly whack some in!
My patreon dollars well spent! Even if I don't have the time and resources to do a massive sick build like this, I can live vicariously through your videos. Congrats on the new kid!
I don't know how, I liked your earlier version but this is on a different level (and considering we are talking about you, that says a lot) so good work man and congrats to your growing family. Happy for you :)
Amidst a sea of CZcams garbage, Lachie is the light of the two trees. Appreciate the massive amount of work it takes to churn out these wildly ambitious projects, and to do it without a team like many other similar channels have is just legendary. Keep doing what you love mate, we all love to see it and most wish we could be doing the same.
I’m absolutely not a wargamer, but I love the ambition and the scale of your builds. Be great to get some civilian vehicles, parks, perhaps a monorail in there…
Oh yessssss Joe, I've been wanting to dig out some of my old HO scale trains haha! Oh man what have you done hahaha I'm spiralling down a rabbithole now.

They need murder holes, to be honest.
Like at the gate.
Be more creative with those gate & wall pieces.
Bottom to bottom, lets you build upside-down.
Great for say spires and so on.
One suggestion, have you considered a raised highway, like you can see in Fallout?
That Castle must be supplied, somehow, right?
When will Games Workshop challenge you to create a few Custodian Units?
You would need quite a few of the smaller units, just to properly decorate the bigger units, like the tanks.
Sicaran tank with a backwards Land-Raider trailer, with a connecting corridor between them.
Fusion powered?
Baneblade chassis, terrain fusion reactor pieces, finally the proper engine for the Custodians, they have the best of the best, that's not standaard.
Yes, they have the best, and combustion engines are not the best, that's fusion power.
How else will they drive their stuff on say a airless moon?
With both, you need at least two Custodian hoverbikes for their curved eagles for above the forwards track cover & headlights, setup.
And properly the slightly bigger one as well.

This is looking amazing so far. It needs a z scale train to move around it. Chassis Exist you can 3d print warhammer looking train looks on top of.

Agreed. Watching scratchbuilding videos is much more fun and instructive than those plastic.. things.
Those plastic things are pretty cool and there is so much to choose from but foam you can do more with it just takes more skill and time, its much cheaper to.@@mazikainen
100%! I freaking love watching Lachie cut foam!
I wasn‘t very keen on the whole imperialis thing but just the fact that you can do this project is enough for me now
Terrain always gets me pumped haha, thanks mate!
Congratulations on the new addition to the family mate! Amazing work on this project. Can't wait to see it all come together.
Thank you so much Chrissy! Yeah it's really starting to have a bit of shape now, I think once I get the next section of wall done and the upper levels behind that we'll really start to properly feel the scope of the landscape.

What about using a large miniature under a bridge painted as stone like a statue to ‘hold up’ the bridge? Like what you see in Gotham City?
That would probably work fantastically @@richardharrison4762
cathedrals with flying buttresses are definitively the pinnacle of gothic architecture but ok
Obligatory algorithm appeasement comment.
You legend
The algorithm protects
Quack
Lol i do these too 😂
Noice
You could color code the gates down in the trench with buildings behind the wall (green gate = green building and so on) so you units have more movement options on the battlefield
Yeah that's exactly what i'm thinking, essentially have "elevator access" nodes that basically allow a little teleport to the other areas :)
Great work, it's coming along beautifully.
Also, congrats! Super proud to have watched you and this channel grow over the years, I'm sure your third is being welcomed into a beautiful family.
I will be interested to see how you can alter the baneblade turrets to give that sense of scale. Perhaps little bunkers and emplacements built onto the turrets themselves? Like little AA batteries etc. Good luck with your third child, I hope everything goes well.
Yeah that's my plan, sort of kitbash them into the epic buuldings to look like SUPER VOLCANO CANNONS etc etc haha
@@Zorpazorp Sounds awesome, I cannot wait!
I, too, look forward to see Epic scale super-turrets made from Baneblade parts.
You should try putting some pipes in spanning the chasm at different levels to represent things like prometheum/plasma/sewage/etc. lines going to and from the palace. Might also be worth pinching some of the gates from Legions Imperialis terrain to detail the walls and main gate more by adding sally ports so that smaller units like tanks of infantry formations can sally forth without the risk of letting in the whole heretic army.

@@Zorpazorp loving your videos
Good luck with the third! Congratulations in advance!
Thank you mate!!!! So excited :)
Congrats on the baby! I hope mother and child are both doing well!
Man this is amazing
I can barely comprehend the scale by normal 40k but in epic scale thats even scarier
Honestly i think the structure could also work for the dawn of war
Yeah it DEFINITELY getting used in the next DoWW batrep when it's all painted up haha, I love making stuff for both scales! Thank you mate!
The addition of the extra height through the bridge looks fantastic.
Thank you mate! Yeah I totally agree!
LOVE the improved look of the city. I think that to capture the IMMENSE scale of the Imperial Palace and the buildings of Terra you could look into mixing in 28mm scale buildings with the new 8mm Epic scale ones kitbashed for detailing! I think that would really help bring out the insane larger-than-life grandeur of the Imperium without having to resort to blank foam stonework or stacking a zillion Imperialis tiles for the biggest structures.
Like, imagine the Bastion Imperialis but with epic-scale skyscraper turrets and guns jutting from the top.
Congrats on the new kiddo! That trench is giving me moria vibes with the criss crossing walk ways.
Thanks Glen! Yeah I was thinking the exact same thing!
I think you need some statues and pipelines between the two-lane-street. And probably some gigantic foam buildings to give this crazy Warhammer vibe
Excited to see the progress of the project, and congratulation and good luck with the little one! exciting times!
Thanks so much mate! Yeah I'm pretty happy with how it's shaping up now :)
It will be a shame if one of the right tower doesn't end up with a lift off top revealing a huge dice tower opening that drops the dice down to a platform in the pit.
HAHAHAHAH YES Rusty that will be amazing. Rolling all dice down into the undercity!!
Just... Overwhelming to even watch! So much work ahead!! And not molding anything?! Straight kitbashing... Crazy!
I would be but I just can't afford the material investment, even if the labour cost balloons haha

Good on ye all, I hope the new kiddo happens(d) as smoothly as possible!!! And the board is looking sweet, always love an in-depth build!
Very smooth indeed, mum and bub doing really well!
NEVER too bored to watch you work and cut foam. Love these videos!
Excited to see the progress of the project, and congratulation and good luck with the little one :D exciting times!
Don't apologize, I love watching you cut giant foam blocks. It's satisfying seeing the walls come together bit by bit!
Hahah thank you Ben, I need foam addicts like us haha!
You're an absolute monster of a hard working man Lochy, this is coming together really nicely. Hope all goes well with the spawn!
Thank you mate, it's been a big slog to get this one out before baby haha, but she's coming along nicely now!
I was doubting the project in the first video, but now I'm sold!
I looked up "EPIC!!!" in the Dictionarium Imperiale, and there was just a link to this video.
All the best to the entire Zorpa Zorp family with their new addition.
Watching this beginning to come together makes my cold hobby heart all warm and fuzzy.
That is going to look awesome! Loving the new depth to the city, definitely the way forward. Finally, potential congratulations, good luck and look forward to hearing about the family expansion.
Glad things are getting better for you! You deserve it. You make some amazing stuff
Thank you! Cheers!
Really coming together now - the depth of the build with those connected roads is amazing! And congratulations to you all mate
Thank you mate! Yeah the build finally took a big leap here, starting to get some real shape!
Congratulations and i hope everything goes well! I reckon this is looking way better than the previous city tiles
Yeah we're starting to get somewhere now!! thank you mate :)
Amazing! I’ve got a sore neck from nodding in agreement. Love the energy from you guys.
Got my first kid ready to pop any day now so solidarity! Hope everything goes well, looking forward to more amazing builds when you can!
woooooooh Good luck with your bub mate! Ours is doing really well :)
What an incredible cliffhanger! Congrats on your baby, and looking forward to your return!
Those chasm walkways are inspired. Such an amazing feature to get the scale!
You are insane when it comes to the projects you undertake ... but I love them. Stunning work again mate.
Most heartwarming endings ever.
I cant wait to see pics of the new one
love this project, amazing work as always, cheers to your new family addition!
Great work and loved the way you felt the need to do an outro whilst the baby is basically crowning! Good luck and congrats!
I don’t think I could ever get bored of you cutting foam lmao
How you envision and then bring this all to life will never cease to amaze me.
Haha thank you mate, mostly it's just trusting the process. Even if I can't see the future end goal, I'll find it as I go along :)
So excited for you to return! You got me into minis and constantly inspire me! Thank you!

You are lucky that you love what you do because many people including myself would have an emotional breakdown and would quit.
Also while going through a hard time you still kept time to look after your family.
You are a incredible person to push through all the hards times and I hope that it starts to reopen for you again.
Thank you so much Oliver, that means a lot. There have definitely been times when I've been looking at returning to former careers, or other options. My patreons and Channel Members are the primary reason I can get through those really insane periods.
Congratulations! Praying everyone is safe and healthy. What you do is not easy, but it inspires me to build and experiment. Thank you for sharing your journey with the broader world.
Thank you so much mate, glad you're enjoying it all :)
Amazing work on all fronts... Scenery and family building... And congrats
We Working hard on finishing up all our Imperialis Terrain snd Armies! We have tow game sunder our belt so far and its been great fun! fortunately we had some Battletech terrain from a tournament wee hosted last month that fit the scale and look. Grabbing a bag of crisps and going to enjoy your video now... :)
That sounds amazing guys! How have you found the gameplay??
Congrats on the baby! Board is looking way more interesting than previously. I'm looking forward to seeing how the city part pans out -- I can't fathom working at that scale (both in terms of board-size and miniature scale). Hopefully it won't feel to flat in the end.
Congrats to you and the family. Look forward to seeing more builds in 2024!
Thank you Owain!!
this coming together so nicely, its amazing to follow you on that journey!
One thing I liked the most were the DIAGONAL bridges in the chasm below the gate bridge...maybe you should apply that to some city blocks...some diagonal houses would really break up that blocky, chess-boardy symmetry and make it a bit more organic
I was told that the Imperial Palace of Terra was big, but i did not imagine it could be THIS big, large and detailed.😮
Good luck with the baby, and know that your projects inspire me at every level!
this is not boring in any way, thanks Zz for another great project to follow
Man I just love the warhammer community . Every single day I get closer to building and painting my first model. You guys are really such an inspiration!
Awww thank you, glad I keep the hobby candle burning!
WOW, just wow... you must think the cutting of foam and setting up the board structure can be boring but i could watch this for hours, you make it seem so fast and easy but between every cut in the video there must be so many hours of work in this, the measuring, stone work, planning, try and error, cutting and glueing... i always feel pumped to do my own hobby projects (especielly scenery stuff, but you make me want to play legions imperialis too...) every time i watch, you just bring this relentless energy (i do hope you find a bit of a breather in beetween for real life though).
Also the "im old gandalf" got me good :D
oh and congrats on the growing family!
I cant wait to see the first tanks roll over that awesome bridge!
The layout is looking a lot better now. Good work!
Hey, I hope all goes/went well with the baby! And don't worry about your viewers, family is WAAY more important! I'm a recent subscriber, and I love watching this build come together. Looking forward to seeing you back at it (and thoroughly sleep-deprived) in a few weeks.
Thank you so much mate!! Mum and Bub are both doing really well :) :) Thank you for watching mate, back soon indeed!
What a cool project. Best of luck with it and of course with the baby!
The man has asked for help. Do your duty guardsmen!!
Ahhhh wow mate thank you so much, super generous really means a huge mount. Genuinely a big big hug. Thanks mate!
The bridges and towers need more gothic spikes or statues. I think taking some normal scale old school marines (like the one you could get in a set of 5) would make for easy and fantastic statue detailing a long the roads and plazas
Actually we don't want gothic stuff, as his is set during the Horus Heresy, so we are deep into 200 years of the Imperial Truth, before the formation of Imperial Cult, which translated heavily into the super Gothic architectural style we know from 40k, some 10000 years later. Honestly even the statues should actually all be absent as Dorn removed them all during his fortification of the Imperial Palace, but I think even though in canon they should be gone, I think you're right they'll really help with detail so I'll probabaly whack some in!
Congrats on the new baby!! I hope everyone is doing well and healthy
Congratulations on the new member of the Zorpazorp family! 🎉
Congrats on the new addition mate. Can't wait to have a game on this at Zorpfest next year
Foam builds are amazing! I’ll never be bored of them!
Good luck and congrats with the new addition, Lochy!
Thank you mate! Bub is doing really well!
@@Zorpazorp That's excellent to hear!!!
My patreon dollars well spent! Even if I don't have the time and resources to do a massive sick build like this, I can live vicariously through your videos. Congrats on the new kid!
you are an absolute legend Matty, thank you so much mate, so so much
I don't know how to emphasise this more but I am never bored by watching you cut up foam Locky
Aww thank you mate, needed that comment this morning
Now it's starting to come together, I reckon you should keep some epic models around to keep an eye on the scale. Hope the birth went/goes well!
Thank you for this project! It gives me so many great ideas.
Also, best wishes to your family!!
Keep it up bud, we're all rooting for you! And congratulations about the wean!
Trully awesome man. Can’t wait to see all the boom and splash and shootishoot!
that lower gate need a top "crown piece like statue above the gate. Congrants on the kido too.
I don't know how, I liked your earlier version but this is on a different level (and considering we are talking about you, that says a lot) so good work man and congrats to your growing family. Happy for you :)
Amidst a sea of CZcams garbage, Lachie is the light of the two trees. Appreciate the massive amount of work it takes to churn out these wildly ambitious projects, and to do it without a team like many other similar channels have is just legendary. Keep doing what you love mate, we all love to see it and most wish we could be doing the same.
Ah thank you mate. This comment really brightened my day mate. Annon allen mae govannen :)
Good luck brother, fatherhood is simply the greatest thing ever.
It is just amazing aye mate. even the third time around it still floors me!
Congratulations! And wow, this is ridiculously awesome!
Very good work as always, I think there would be missing, pipes.... many many pipes
YESSSSSSS a pipe pass is sorely needed!
I’m absolutely not a wargamer, but I love the ambition and the scale of your builds. Be great to get some civilian vehicles, parks, perhaps a monorail in there…
Oh yessssss Joe, I've been wanting to dig out some of my old HO scale trains haha! Oh man what have you done hahaha I'm spiralling down a rabbithole now.
Good luck with the new zorpaspawn. Cannot wait to see where you go next with this 👍
I'm happy you really do take into consideration what people have to say! Good luck Z!
