Seeing the wild West City in the same room as the Lego City really gives off the vibe of the dad's basement in The Lego Movie. It would be so cool if you created a minifigure of yourself that is the "protagonist" and is jumping between worlds and working to stop the mafia😂
I feel like a sunset painted in the background would fit the wild west much more than the blue skies. A bunch of orange and yellows would really compliment the colors of the city i think
As someone who grew up in and lives in the American Western Deserts, I really love this model, it speaks to me! I've always loved to go to Europe and perhaps when it is open I'll come to Germany to visit my ancestral homeland and see your museum at some point in the future! Nothing but love from the California Mojave!
For me it's the other way around. I'm from Switzerland and nice old towns and castles and big mountains are something that feels familiar and those desert landscapes is something I only know from wild west movies and the Minecraft mesa biom.
Ein tolles Projekt! Vielleicht kannst Du die Westernstimmung noch mehr einfangen, indem Du den Himmel anpasst. Weniger Blau, mehr als Dämmerung, vielleicht noch mit tief einfallendem Sonnenlicht mit langen, streifigen Wolkenfeldern. In den Western ist der Himmel ja auch nie Azurblau! 🤠 Das auch passender zu den Ocker- und Braunfarben der Landschaft. Ansonsten meine grenzenlose Hochachtung!
I only discovered this channel recently, but watching it ahs reignited my love for lego. God speed to you, good sir! I wish you nothing but the best with your creations!
Why not just increase the height of the table legs slightly so the tabletop comes above the cable duct? Then it'll be out of the way, and you'll have a little bit more room to expand. You could also potentially actually use the plugs for something (maybe a lighting system) and have the cables nicely tucked away underneath the tables.
Since you mentioned having the trains from the city cut through the wall and into your workshop area would it make sense to also have the wild west train go into the workshop area instead of on a bridge in front of the workshop. Having it go along the back wall, maybe even riding on top of the power conduit, then behind the big boxes of bricks until it loops back around to where the hole for the city would be. It would be a lot more work and take a lot more track but that way you won't have a railroad blocking the way in and out of your workshop.
id say, besides the mini figs, you should try and add some animals to your city, the farm part could use some horses or cows, and the wild west could use some snakes or birds watching over the miners and other story elements. It would add that little extra spice of life to your city. but besides that, these are looking better and better every update, keep up the good work!
That extra space in the Wild West moc is a perfect opportunity to add some buildings on the hills I think. Maybe a mine or a fort of some kind. It would definitely add some extra height to the area 😃
Love how official it looks with the addition of the stantions in front of the Wild West moc. It really helps make the museum vibes feel more legitimate
That wild west section is amazing! You never cease to amaze me with what you build. It'd be hilarious is you add Doc and Marty as a BTTF reference somewhere in there.
it would be very cool to combine the modern zone and the wild west zone with a LEGO suspension bridge, the first half of the bridge corresponded to the modern zone, and the second wild west zone
It's be cool if he could have it so a wild west train goes into the connected tunnel, there being another more modern design train hiding inside that only drives out to the other side into the city when the western has gone in. Sorta giving a magic time travelling train effect
Beautiful! Most American Wild West films were filmed in Italy and are called “spaghetti westerns” as a result. Looking at how Italian landscape transitions between geographic zones could provide some inspiration for making the transition between the alpine city and the Wild West less jarring.
Actually, the landscape shots of spaghetti westerns were usually filmed in the deserts of Spain, by Italians. There are hardly any desert regions in Italy.
That's incorrect, there is a considerable more amount of American wild west films than there are spaghetti westerns. Also only a few spaghetti westerns were filmed in italy, the great silence being one of them, and being one of the best spaghetti westerns made.
Nice to see the return of the Wild West Mock. I highly recommend adding a creek or a river, to the wild west, btw. Those western towns tend to pop up near a water source for obvious reasons, and the stratified stones likewise show up mostly where the soil has been allowed to build up over time before a river cut through it.
To connect the trains, you could put the switch behind the MOC and pass it into your workspace behind the curtain and when you cut through the wall you can connect it there
A bridge would be so cool! Also I’ve been watching your channel for a long time now and when the Lego museum is finished I am definitely coming, even if I have to fly there
In the museum, you should absolutely add TVs with videos of stuff that you couldn't see so easily! Interiors of buildings, behind something, etc! Especially in the city and moon base! It would help with what's not readily visible!
Sometimes on some other channels with massive builds I get the feeling of losing the trees for the forest, that sometimes mocs become this thing where so much attention is placed on pure scale that detail is just not there but man...that is not the case with your builds. Watching this and rewatching some of your older videos the builds are just so incredibly detailed and well put together. Great stuff, can't wait to see what future add ons look like.
I think having studs visible in the rock faces makes complete sense and makes it look better than flat pieces. It gives it a rocky look which works really well and looks cool!
I think if you do connect the Wild West and City together, you should have a Time-Twisters-esqe tunnel with swirls and perhaps mini-MOCs of various Time Travelers (The TARDIS, HG Wells' Machine, etc) scattered within
If you are going to connect the train tracks from the Wild West world with the Lego City, I guess you have to build something that blocks the entrance to your workshop. Could you run the train along the walls of the workshop, and make it enter the city through a hole in the wall?
In the background space you could recreate the scene from the beginning of the movie "toy story 3" with a huge wooden bridge spanning the two mountains. I think it would be epic. Big fan of this channel!❤
I would love to see the railroad wrap around the back, potentially even at a higher elevation atop the new mountains you build in the back! That being said, it might break the illusion you've worked hard on to scale down your facades to simulate perspective. Either way, always excited to see what you come up with!
Also, I remember on your old setup, that you added overhead lines on top of some tracks, so you can probably add them back on some parts. It was a nice detail in my opinion.
In the mountains behind the wild west town a nice addition would be an apache or navajos Indian village. Also a bridge full of dynamite as mentioned by other people, can be a fantastic idea
Suggestion: some kind of table skirt that comes down and covers the table legs and space underneath your displays. I think it will make a big difference with just a little effort.
Being an American who has never been to Europe and whose family left Europe several generations ago, but still loves to build medieval European lego mocs, I e sometimes stopped and thought, “I wonder how folks in Europe feel about how much Americans love castle.” I think I have an answer, because watching this I went, “oh, cool!” Awesome moc!
I think for the switch you should go with the bridge option a put a portal in the middle of It so you could have an effect like the train is travelling through time.
You have a flair for color and detail, imo. BTW, personally, I like the connection track going behind the Wild West. To keep the setting more 'pure'. ☮
The bridge connecting the two builds could possibly take inspiration from Krobar's Interdimentional Bridge, an awesome creation from the well-known Minecraft server 2b2t
Looking bomb! You should think about attaching black curtains on the edges underneath the tables reaching all the way to the floor. That way you would hide table legs and that white shelf and most importantly it would drag more attention to the mocs!
What would be interesting is if you have the track connecting the two be hidden behind some sort of tunnel, and while the train is in the tunnel it actually stops moving and a second train takes it’s place. The two trains would match the style of the time periods and it would almost be like moving through time. You could set up a couple loops in the track to turn the train around when it gets in and then holds it while the other train is out.
I really wonder how you are gonna solve the railroad connection between the western and the city. I mean it will block the passage to your workshop behind the curtain. I bet you don't wanna remove/attach railroad pieces everytime. So something smart needs to be made here. Maybe you can make a table/shelf that folds open while keeping all the LEGO on it. Like you see in bars where a piece of the counter can be flipped open so the bartender can get through. To keep it open you can attack a lock for it to the pillar.
I have loved seeing this and all your other MOCs come alive since you got this new place. I can't wait to see how you take everything to the next level!
Id connect the rail in the background, so the foreground isnt cluttered with rail. Or both, and have a double line. Aside of that, maybe a "time warp" "time machine" tunnle would be a fancy addition.
When looking in the Wild West tunnel, you see a Lego wall, but it is all brightly lit. Having a light (cardboard?) easy to remove cover for the tunnel ceiling could just block out the light to make the tunnel appear dark.
One idea for the train is to use both of your track ideas. The real connection can be the behind the mountain connection that pops out in a tunnel in the city and the fake connection could be an unfinished bridge with a train precariously dangling from its end like the unfinished bridge in Back to the Future 3. Keep up the fun work.
Something about your style and attention to detail as well as the overall look makes this very cool! If im going on a roadtrip to Normandie some year(s) from now id be great to pass by your lego museeum! Good luck! And I hope to see it 'finished' with my own eyes! Cheers from Sweden!
Love the videos, it's always great to go on youtube and see a lego city update. Glad there is finally a wild west update. But the way you threw that base part at the beginning 😂
One thing you could add that would be pretty cool might be to add a hot air balloon or two to the west stuff, I believe there used to be a kit that included an up/down motion that could be applied to make it even more interesting and add more motion to it
You should extens the Mountain and desert over the cable duct. Like the Terrain is raising there and hide the whole thing and maybe some cables... Also make it parcial removeable like the houses for quick excess
You said you thought about making the train track go over a bridge between town and wild west and I immediately thought about some massive lego bridge built between the 2. Something that doesn't exactly belong in either world but just look awesome on it's own. And is also movable so you can remove it when building and needing access to your workspace.
When it comes to the switch track position in the Wild West mock: - Having the switch in front of the mock would be a nice showing and be more interesting to see having it right there - Having the switch behind the mock and appear along the side from a tunnel similar to the other side would probably give a better connection between the mocks without a somewhat conflict in the overall continuity. Having the connection between wild west and modern urban being so in the open if the switch was right in front may bring some conflict of interest.
I really love your uploads. It reminds me of playing with Lego as a kid. I dreamed a lot about having a massive set like that. You should leave some 1x1 tiles of the Wild West mountain colors scattered close to the base of them to simulate fallen rocks.
when connecting your mocs - build portals for your trains to travel through with purple/ blue glowing rings like seen in lego dimensions. edit- OR you could add a glowing line to split the mocs apart which make your audience feel included in the transportation from one "dimension" to the next
Perhaps the cable duct can be painted a sandy color to blend in further?
hi mogswamp
whut. Hello Mog!

Seeing the wild West City in the same room as the Lego City really gives off the vibe of the dad's basement in The Lego Movie. It would be so cool if you created a minifigure of yourself that is the "protagonist" and is jumping between worlds and working to stop the mafia😂
I like this idea, but I want to see an update on the Space themed MOC. If only so he can add his own spaceship Spaceship SPACESHIP!
Why should he stop the Mafia when he can work for them
@@vomm Is he stopping the mafia...or taking over😉
a "Where's Waldo" sort of scenario
This is a good idea
I feel like a sunset painted in the background would fit the wild west much more than the blue skies. A bunch of orange and yellows would really compliment the colors of the city i think
Can LEGO please at least half sponsor this man?? We all know how expensive those bricks can get! This is looking great.
Take a look at official Lego sets. This man is too good for Lego.
A Trestle rail bridge would be insane! Could have some bandits putting dymamite on it too!
red lego redemption! lol, nice idea!
I already proposed a wooden trestle bridge over a deep gorge in the the old layout.
And delorian in front of train hahah
The geographically appropriate music in the background is the icing on the cake for these videos and adds so much to the atmosphere of the video
I do like the visible studs in the wild west mok.
It gives the rock a harsher, grityy more natural feeling.
Same with the sand/desert/savana.
The effort you put into lego and survive deadly contact with them (Lord forbid you step on them) is amazing
I am the one who knocks!
You are like the new justin y
Nah, professional legoists only drop bricks on purpose! And then pick them all up again.
Bro how are you commenting on all these videos?

That's what I was thinking. A bridge between the two would look cool, but wouldn't it block the path into his work space?
This is very cool 😀👍
As someone who lives in the “Wild West,” I have to unfortunately say… yeah it is this cool! We do everything pictured in the MOC right here in AZ
id say, besides the mini figs, you should try and add some animals to your city, the farm part could use some horses or cows, and the wild west could use some snakes or birds watching over the miners and other story elements.

Amazing work! Looking forward in the whole project! Keep it up! 🥰
couldn't say it better
It’s hard not to love his series, his city is so realistic
The bridge idea is cool, could be quite neat to try to do a massive canyon in the gap with the bridge over the top or something
it would be very cool to combine the modern zone and the wild west zone with a LEGO suspension bridge, the first half of the bridge corresponded to the modern zone, and the second wild west zone
Like a tunnel where one side is the modern world and the other side is Wild West?

I had the same idea as well.
Maybe you could build something black around inside the tunnel so it is dark when you look inside, some small lights inside would look cool too
Guys this looks butiful it reminds me of the great west cowboy life's matter
A bridge would be so cool!
Also I’ve been watching your channel for a long time now and when the Lego museum is finished I am definitely coming, even if I have to fly there
Dude! This is the absolute goat LEGO series!
It’s great to have the Wild West Scene back and now being expanded. Keep Brickin.
You can drill a hole from your workspace to have a train tunnel connect the wild west to the city
Beautiful rockwork!

It’s so cool, the Wild West city is my favorite of your builds! Glad to finally see it back again. It looks great in the room
I hope this museum is a profitable endevour.
i love the first timelapse shot at the beginning and the background music
