>>7035873>When building a LEGO city, should I use baseplates or not?>Including an ocean or river there will be elevation problems. “Realism” is actually somewhat important to me, even with a toy city.>>7035885>If I use baseplates, I want to use the street ones, but I am still working out the elevation logistics. Maybe I can have the tables x-number of bricks lower for the water and get the measurements right to connect the two levels.Ooh! Ooh! Anon!
I don't know if this is helpful at all (I don't watch youtubers so I don't know if Jang already covered this) but I developed a technique for making multi-level baseplates that I used for this backyard pool scene. Basically, I wanted to be able to use 32x32 baseplates to create a seamless backyard area and seamless water surface. This lets you have multiple levels of baseplates that are all connected. You could keep increasing the elevation, or lower the difference in elevation by using plates instead of bricks.
Obviously the key point is that since the baseplate doesn't have antistuds on the underside, a baseplate resting on top of studs creates the same elevation as a standard plate.
>>7035894>that was a great decision anon. some delightful greeblesThanks anon, it was a lot of fun to make and definitely looks more interesting
