This is a little Lego Ideas concept I had rolling around for awhile now. It is a lunar mining facility run by a group of six robots. I've always had a deep love for the older space themes Lego made during the late 80's mid 90's. Things like Blacktron, or Unitron, or insectoids, they all were quite inspiring and spectacular to me!
This set proper, took little over a week to build, with a few hiccups here and there. The base itself took the longest to build, and was the one that underwent the most redesigns. It was either too crowded to fit the details I wanted inside or just way too big and looked a bit off.
If you like this build and think it would make for a great Lego set, then you can help support it on Lego Ideas! ideas.lego.com/projects/149128
The front at the lower level behind a tree is this n must be a place that a discharge area - on the map it looks like there could be an opening at top of this structure but I can't get close enough with the blur settings in.
A diorama to die for. I can only conclude that the ancient people of Cerrillos had abnormally huge heads and all looked alike.
Site of the former Carrissa Mine, outside South Pass City, WY. Though the landscape here looks empty, we're actually on a plateau and there's far more hidden (see nearby pictures) in nearby valleys than is visible here.
Situated at 2,000 m in the Andes, 60 km to the east of Rancagua, in an environment marked by extremes of climate, Sewell Mining Town was built by the Braden Copper company in 1905 to house workers at what was to become the world’s largest underground copper mine, El Teniente. It is an outstanding example of the company towns that were born in many remote parts of the world from the fusion of local labour and resources from an industrialized nation, to mine and process high-value natural resources. The town was built on a terrain too steep for wheeled vehicles around a large central staircase rising from the railway station. Along its route formal squares of irregular shape with ornamental trees and plants constituted the main public spaces or squares of the town. The buildings lining the streets are timber, often painted in vivid green, yellow, red and blue. At its peak Sewell numbered 15,000 inhabitants, but was largely abandoned in the 1970s.
