>>6704148it was a fun little build, there's actually a lot of colourful bricks on the inside and a simple mechanism to launch the lava gemstone balls from the top.
everyday i am more excited to move into my new place where i will have a dedicated nook with a desk and lamp and such for my laptop + lego.
the bottom of this build is prone to instability and so normally definitely requires a sturdy flat surface to maintain composure when under stress during the building phase. I managed to work it out alright but it was finnicky and there's a loose brick inside rumbling around which broke off but i can't get to it without dismantling a lot of it.
I do have a desk here in my place but it's got lots of books and stuff on it and right now i can't be fck'd moving them all, might do it tomorrow and then rebuild this volcano + see if I have some other parts to build a bit of a moc, some kinda scene or diorama.
For a while now I have been wondering what anons here think of the baseplates that are sold in general places where you can buy klocki. I see them from time to time and the price, in my area, is around 10 to 15 dollars, which seems quite a lot for just a simple plate of plastic - however, I've not used them in years so I don't know just how important or useful they are. Do you anons have any thoughts on them?

>>6704157My goal is to create a fantasy land with my lego and so far I've collected some good lego to start making it when I get the space via some sets from 2017. I am pretty excited for harry potter sets and the city arctic sets in particular as the HP sets ought to have some really neat and useful parts for my fantasy homes and possibly creature building too, the arctic things could be really useful for me if I decide to build an ice cave or a snowy mountain, possibly not tho if it's just focusing on vehicles and such.
