March 7, 20169 yr Very nice! Have you ever considered adding any texture to the beige baseplate under the jeep/tracks? Like a puddle with a big muddy trex print?

I did/do want to detail the road a bit more in someway, and this does sound pretty cool! But not sure there's enough room to do it right. I may just greeble it with some 1x1 round studs/plates to give it a more gravel-like look. Going by the source material though; this road is pretty darn plain.

And maybe some weeds/grass at the edge of the fence? Haven't seen the movie in a bazillion years, but unlikely someone went by that edge everyday with a weedwhacker

March 7, 20169 yr Looks excellent, great display piece! I wish Lego would have made something like this, it displays much better than their recent efforts in the JW range. Well done man.
March 9, 20169 yr @Sandwraithx157: Why did you use the poor goat in your MOC? I'm not very positive it's safe there. And you surely know how ridiculously expensive goats are compared to other animals.

Couple friends/family saw my progress and the first thing they would ask is: "Are you going to included a goat!?" lol. Plus the LEGO goat matches the on-screen goat so well

August 5, 20214 yr Hi Sandwraith! I tried to message you, but I guess I'm too new and am not allowed to send messages. I absolutely love your build! Amazingly well done. I'd like to make a paddock fence myself, and am not sure where to start. I saw you linked a Lego Digital Designer file in the beginning. Unfortunately I wasn't able to open it. You don't have the file in Studio by any chance, do you? (Apologies if the terms are wrong, I learned about Lego Digital Designer and Studio just so I could ask you this question.) Any insights would be GREATLY appreciated! Thanks again for posting the pics and descriptions - really incredible job!
