How to Make a LEGO Modular Building

In this video, I'm taking you through planning, designing and building custom LEGO modulars. I want my LEGO city to eventually be filled with custom builds, instead of sticking to official sets. I'll give you a step by step how-to of the entire process so you can get to building as well! Besides the full modular, I'm also customising the Assembly Square and I'll be adding the Police Station to my city.

[@dsb7318]

0:42-0:59 is so relatable because that exact lego ferrari set got me back into lego as an adult but now prefer designing mocs that fit my aesthetic

[@hoarder66]

Lego is expensive in both time, money, and space used. I remember when I first got back into it and heard people say that they r out of space but me with my piddly lil collection thought "oh that won't happen to me cause I will never amass that amount of parts"... Well, I was wrong. But its worth it😂

[@Junk_Draw3r]

Expensive in space used! Yes!! I got back into Lego a couple years ago and as of this year… my collection is too big I don’t really have space for it 😭 but I don’t wanna get rid of the bulk cuz I make a lot of MOCs

[@hoarder66]

@@Junk_Draw3r lmao exactly. I had to go from it being stored in a closet, to being stored in a closet and bedroom, to having to move the office downstairs and the bedroom to the office leaving the larger bedroom for the Lego which I can't complain cause it is badass but now that it's full, what am I to do?🤣

[@renzo260]

Hahahah! I had a LOT of Lego at home initially but had to bring everything to my office. My girlfriend didn't like the bookshelves being filled with Lego cause "where should I put all of my books?!" 😂

[@renzo260]

Gotta move into a bigger house I guess... Oh well! 😂😂

[@hoarder66]

@@renzo260 well it depends.... Were they books about Lego?🤣

Great video! The quality of your videos is great and really makes me want to make a lego town of my own (already started a bit, but I don't have a lot of space yet). Also a video about your experience sourcing parts and ordering them would be really appreciated, I'm tempted to buy on bricklink but it's a bit daunting

[@petermaris9697]

Nice video. Agree on the cost vs effort part. Being Dutch too finding the cheapest way is not easy. Though if i really want a set i just find it in a discount. Bricklink order also add up a lot in cost. But to make your own building is indeed cooler

[@brix4clix]

Who are you ? Why havent I seen you earlier! Great Video, love it !

[@VersatileFunDesigns]

Wow, your video quality is better than anything I have ever seen! 🤩 This video brought me so much joy! I'm super motivated to build my own modular now, after having built the Natural History Museum without instructions!

[@renzo260]

That's so awesome to hear, thank you for the compliment! And I hope you succeed with your modular! If you want you can share it in the Discord server 😄

YEEAAAHH RENZO Eindelijk gepost en meteen perfect!! Lekker bezig!

[@renzo260]

Lekkerrrr!

[@daaromrochdigames1924]

Thank you very much for this video, great to see someone who really shows how you can make a modular building yourself. I have been trying to design one in studio 2.0 for a while now. greetings from the Netherlands.

[@renzo260]

Awesome to hear! Good luck with your own project!

[@manoldalmazzo]

This is a GREAT video!!

Thanks!

Put city hall on lego ideas and it can be new lego ideas set.

[@xDark_Voidx]

the front assembly square is amazing

[@renzo260]

Do you think I should put that design on the side as well?

[@xDark_Voidx]

@@renzo260 yes it would look great

[@jakobbjerregardlarsen6132]

This were achually some really good tips and roght after i watched this i went straight to stud io to build my own modular and if i save up i will mayby also buy some bricks to build it

[@1027scm]

This is a great video. Excellent suggestions.

[@renzo260]

I'm glad you liked it!

[@fastbrick]

Such a fantastic video! I've always done very simple custom builds. This has a ton of great info on how to expand your abilities. Thanks for sharing!

[@renzo260]

I'm glad it's useful! Good luck on your projects!

[@user-cq2fe7sd2y]

thx for the help

[@christopher6921]

Why do Lego retire sets when then are still very popular

[@Imoutogetyou]

Imagine having to sort your own Lego collection and finding all the parts you need for a random set from 2009. Except you aren’t you, you are the Lego company. They can’t make everything all the time, and they can’t store enough bricks to supply old sets forever.

[@renzo260]

I bet this is exactly it. And you can generally source most of the parts from Lego anyways. If you're okay with not having a specific printed pieces that only came in one set, it's easy to replace

[@arjansauce]

Very helpfull👍

[@renzo260]

Great to hear!

[@TomJaygaming]

PHEW at least I’m not required to to outside

Jammer dat het geen stadhuis van Middelburg is. Leuke en geweldige video voor de rest.

Currently my mocs are blocky and a bit boring, guess I need to work on my building skills

[@renzo260]

Hope the video helps :D

[@SunSailor]

Your town hall is nice, no discussion there, but it does something, real Lego modulars don't do - it has a quite obviouse symmetrie. Although this honors the reference, it breaks the typical modular esthetic. I would have added a tower or something like that to one of the wings to break the symmetry. Otherwise very useful video, thank you!

[@renzo260]

That's actually very helpful feedback, thanks! When I was building it, I did feel like it was almost a little off but couldn't put my finger on it. I think making it not as symmetric could be nice indeed. I'll definitely make some changes down the line and keep this in mind!

Thanks Filip! En tof om je erbij te hebben als member, dat waarderen we enorm! 😄 Ik heb een kopie van mijn eigen stem gemaakt met ElevenLabs. De video's hiervoor hebben we met text to speech gedaan, maar inmiddels gebruiken we speech to speech. Dat klinkt nog net iets natuurlijker
