Have been working on this football stadium (although might also host GAA, rubgy games who knows) on and off for some weeks now and slowly but surely making progress.

Might host the odd concert as well! Could be an interesting challenge to build a big stage in the middle of the pitch :)

Looking incredible so far anyway. How long is it?

This will put the customs house to shame, love seeing progress and then the final build -like the colossal build programs on the discovery channel

The stadium lighting already looks Champions league final venue

How long is it?

well the length consists of 2x 48x48s and 3 32x32s so I guess you could say its 6 32x32 baseplates in length.

Not sure it will fit where I hope it might go, risk is the height of the side stand but will take the gamble and find out later D

Seeing as you have a height of about three bricks around the bottom, it looks like an ideal spot to do some brick-built advertising boards!

As I dont have any design builds I need to do all 4 simultaneously as each step being made up as I go along. Somewhat tiring to be honest. Pics will help me have some idea in future should I need to copy :D
