Castle Expansion | I Need More Space! 

Ill need to look at the other builds for it. This might be a good approach. Thank you!

@@alexnunes fyi Alex, I was just on the PAB part of Lego S@H and the sheep and the lambs are now both in stock.

I agree. And I would even suggest some of the castles should be combined. It looks stranger having so many small castles in such close proximity. When you could have three or four really large impressive ones far apart. The smaller buildings would definitely look better closer together. Farmland could be on the outskirts of the village area with crops snd everything else. Your trees and paths do look amazing. You've spaced them very nicely. Definitely try and keep a section for the Forest Men. There is a lot to achieve with this space but I think you can do it all with what you've got!

Thanks, I appreciate the suggestions. I like the idea for puddles.

ah, yes. And now there is Snow White I can add. I do need some diamond miners for sure so that will have to be added too. Thanks!

​@@alexnunesDefinitelly some mountains and mines, it might also be home of some trolls...

And maybe one surrounded by bones near a cave?

Some chickens wouldn't go astray. Early on, they also had fish ponds, self sufficiency gardens organised in patterns with walkways. But they also hunted for deer and wild boar. Plenty of scope in the space for that. Maybe some random hermits and some witches? Lurking pinch pockets? Very interesting period with lots if scope. But this looks really amazing.

Thanks!

I think I will squeeze it all together before I burst through that fabric wall. I can work on the detail a bit more, that's for sure. Thanks!

MILS would be awesome. I'd love to do this. I am keeping my eye open for the needed parts. Need a lot for sure.

Thanks, great suggestions. I'll see about getting some different plant life added around it.

I was bummed, but I'll still get it. Just need to wait a little longer. Thanks!

Ah, more great ideas! Thanks

A pirates section sounds great. I think that is a good backup plan if it doesn't work out.

Yes! Great idea!

I think this is what I will end up doing. I am too lazy to rebuild something else with it.

Good idea. That would fit a little better with the climate.

Yes, for sure. I need to get on that. Thanks for that heads up.

I would love to do this. My goal is to move my collection to a backyard structure. There's space out there, but might be awhile until it is in the budget. I am familiar with Bricksie, he's an amazing RU-vidr. That's really cool how he has his collection setup.

@@alexnunes if you build in your backyard, it’s at your expense. If your “company” buys or rents a space somewhere your company uses it as a business expense which is a deduction on its tax bill. I owned my own business for 15 years. Everything and anything I bought for the “company I bought was a right off and lowered my company tax bill…..considerably. You go to the Lego store and spend $1000, it’s out of your pocket…….if the company buy $1000 of Lego, is a business expense. Plus….you are an employee amd get paid to shop for, build and RU-vid your results. I’m an old retired guy with just a few more years to go……if I was a young man, I’d be a Bricksie in a minute. Just sayin😎👍🇨🇦

@@MrPolleyr I appreciate that. I do have my YT channel as a business for tax purposes. My upstairs studio is a full write off as well as the LEGO and equipment I purchase for the channel. It helps. I think what Jordan is doing is quite extraordinary, however it is not what I have in mind for my future with LEGO. I like having my collection in my home. Time will tell though.

@@alexnunes …thanks Alex, I understand completely. Being in Canada I realize that you have some much better tax deductions as a home owner than we do up here…unfortunately.🙃 I discovered that years ago while visiting friends in Hartford. They were telling me that they could apply their mortgage payments to their income taxes and get a reduction of 1 to 1….wow. We get no deductions on personal ,or property taxes. Anyway, love you channel, never miss an episode. If you and Mindy ever come to East Coast Canada, drop by. My American wife would love it.

My bricks come from three things. The best is when I see pieces I need in a bin at my LEGO store. This allows me to buy large quantities for cheap. Not everyone has a LEGO store, so the next best place is from Bricklink sellers. You still buy by piece though. Finally, buying PAB on the LEGO website. Honestly, I only buy tiles if they are at the LEGO store due to the cost and quantity needed. Not sure this helps, but good luck.

I will do that as soon as I have it. I can't wait!

Great idea! Maybe some game hunters too would be fun

They are still sitting in a row under the table, but no road plans yet. I still want to get that done, but need the amusement park rebuild to get completed first.
