I have to say I am amazed at how the middle did become very dirty blue grey on the test. I really like the way the dark blue turned out, and behind your buildings looked so great. I think you are correct as well with the clouds. All the ideas you and Mrs Hood come up with are fantastic.

I agree, that bottom blue looks WAYYY better than the middle and more "blue" than the top, glad you went with it! Can't wait to see this all done! Are you planning to fill in the buildings toward the wall sides so the blue doesn't bleed through the middle of the buildings or going to say in-universe the light it coming in from windows in the other sides of the building?

The darkest blue is definitely the best!

the lego clouds could be an interesting inspiration for the painted clouds too ...

The bottom colour definitely looks the best! Can’t wait for more updates

Both you and bricksie are getting new Lego/youtube studios for your Lego city’s, what a coincidence!

The darker one for sure! Very good choice

I agree the bottom blue is the best, that's the one I picked last week. Can't wait for the new city.

I quite like the look of the stripes of all three blues together like that, especially if they didn't have as harsh lines between them

I love the brick built clouds. Fantastic idea. I’ve really enjoyed watching the Brick. Nottingham 2.0 process and can’t wait to see more.

Awesome choice Robin! This is THE most exciting project so far! I cant wait to see the tables start to go in, and what you have planned!

Thanks for another lovely update Robin, I love the idea of brickbuild clouds!

As I'm watching this vid I glanced out our front window. It's a partly cloudy day with a lite breeze. The background color? You guessed it, "Breezy Street"! Doooooooo Eeeeeeet!!! 🙂

Perfect choicefir the blue background! 😊👍

So keen for the new train layout! I hope there’s a little shunting yard

I agree with you that the 3rd color is best. Those mario clouds would be great and really pop against the blue background. I can't wait for you to start building in the new room.

Speaking of painting, you might want to have the primer tinted the same blue. It will cut down on the number of coats of paint needed to achieve the desired result, thus saving money on materials and labor.

Love how the room is turning out. The darker vlue does look best on screen. If you want to paint a city backdrop, you might want to use a template or mask, that way you can move faster while keeping a clean look. Looking forward to your next update!

Lego Challenge: You should build 2 life size Lego cars for your new Lego room and even have some Lego oil stains and everything under the cars. They would look great in that space. Maybe a life Size Super Secret Police (Woo! Woo! Woo!) Car? 🚓🚔🚗🚙🏎🤪

Definitely the Dark One ❤

The lighter blue at the top looks great, I've seen some that would transition from lighter at the top and darker near the bottom. One I watch recently even had their clouds at the bottom instead of at the top.

I like the darker blue at the bottom!

Seeing the jack holding up the ceiling immediately brought Faulty Towers “The Builders” to mind!

Idea for the backdrop buildings, perhaps instead of painting them directly onto the backdrop they could be cutouts made of paper or card stock that are stuck to the wall. This theoretically could allow you to change the position of background objects to better match the city in the foreground, i.e if you decide a section is now going to be part of the harbor you could remove the cutouts of sky scrapers and replace them with silhouettes of dockyard cranes and distant ships on the horizon, perhaps even a distant silhouette of the oil platform from the deep sea cabinet.

Really glad you did that test, the new blue is gonna be great!

yeah Dark hands down 2 fold it sticks better on film and 2ndly if you wanna add unikitty clouds it will deffo give that mario vibe.

love it! and the brick built clouds are awesome! and you could have a castle on a cloud!

I like the lower blue, the bright one. (Breezy Street)I It really looks great!

The blue you picked is definitely the best - the others didn't look great. Not too sure about the brick-built cloud idea, that seems like it might not work/look good, but I'm willing to see what it looks like! Hope everything build-wise continues to go ok and can't wait for the next update.

Perfect choice for the Blue option. Breezy Street will make B/N v2 pop so much more! So exciting!!!

on the clouds, I wouldn't go with only brick build one's, but those could give you inspiration to ad something on it ...

GL with the door, installing them is a pain, then you still have to wonder why things are a little off.

Maybe you could have some type of vinyl Lego city backdrop created down the line that could be placed for a backdrop, and have similar ones done for the different farm and amusement park areas

I definitely have to agree, the bottom blue looks best.

The bottom darker blue creates the shadow effect that you were discussing naturally, look at the turrets snd blocks of BN1.0 in front f it…. Rooms looking fantastic…

Nice choice to go for the breezy street blue ! You might be even able to use the other blues for the background buildings, and mix even some buildings up with both shades of blues

Robin better get started now. That roller is gonna take awhile 😅.

The Azurian blue at the bottom looks very similar to my clear skies right now.. I like it best it looks the most cheerful.

It will be a clear decision. Like the others and most of us. The bottom colour is the best choise

Mart to check it like this!!! Good colour of blue choice!!!

This is exciting! If it’s a joke, it’s well done. I can’t wait!

I was totally ready to pick the lighter blue on the top, but your closeups in filming really showed that Breezy Street is the right choice… A suggestion, can you get Breezy Street in ‘magnetic paint’? This would help you to move the clouds you want to make around much easier. Your undersea cabinet and bumper cars shows you are pretty good with the magnet->lego thing as well :)

nice color choice!!! good luck painting!!!!

I've been waiting to see which blue you would be going with! Sometime this year I should be moving my LEGO room too and I need to pick a paint color. I got some paint sample cards and had chosen very similar colors to the lightest blue and the more blue one you chose. I think you may have helped me pick which blue I'm going to use. Now I just need the hubby to finish the basement and move his stuff out of the room! Thanks for sharing!!!! BTW you're my favorite LEGO city builder!!!!

Hooray! I was hoping you'd choose the bottom blue.

Finally, a new video! I am very exited for the next update!

Great job

10:22 I really like the middle blue, but I don't think it's the right colour for the Lego room! 😊 I prefer the darker / bottom one.

Also stay away from Water based quick dry Gloss. Use proper gloss for your wood work

For your train tracks you should have them running together through some of the city, but also running different ways from eachother, I display my LEGO-collection once a year on a trainshow in Bergen, Norway (I live in a small town named Voss 100 km away), and there I have one track going around the main part of the city, while having a much longer track that goes around the entire setup, that I have my over 10 meter long cargotrain running on. It gives the setup alot of diversety, and also due to its length the cargotrain can’t use the inner track, will maybe upload some videos to my account so you can see what is truly going on. I always look forward to new videos from you and can’t wait for the new room to be finished.😊 (Sorry for my bad english.)

As someone whose career was in the arts I 100% agree with your choice and the reasons for them. That room will look fabulous. And you cloud idea sounds adorable.

Personally robin I prefer the darker one aswell so very happy you chose that one haha! Also if you were to paint clouds on instead of brick built ones I’d recommend the channel “brickcrafts” because he did the same as you and has really nice clouds

I like the darker one... I think the buildings look good against it.

Thumbs up for the brick build clouds ;) Would be cool to also have one or two 3D clouds just hanging from the ceiling (with some funny scenes) :)

Absolutely think the bottom blue is the best one.

Splendid video sir

i shall also for the bottom blue and you can the top blue for the ceiling to give little bit broken style. because your lighting shall not bringing to much for it but maybe lovely effect on it? maybe you can use that test panel for the ceiling look?

As a someone in the trade we only use it if customer really wants to. We advise against it as it is known for issues with pigmentation, opacity and coverage. I would advise visiting a Johnstone's Decorating centre or a Dulux Trade centre. You will pay more but get a better quality of paint that will give you a better coverage and finish. Both should be able to colour match your chosen colour. Also they will be able to advise you best finish to the paint as you have limited natural light and that you will have a lot of artificial lighting in use. ie Egg Shell, Flat Mat, Durable Mat. Hope that helps

Why don’t you find someone to 3D print some large “cloud” pieces and recreate what you did in studio. You could build a cool beanstalk scene within one of them .

those clouds might end up looking kind of small on the big wall. the renders look great, I wonder if you could get them made into vinyl stickers?

Thanks for sharing the progress of your new lego room!

you need to name a street after the paint now

Definitely the bottom one 👍

I think the dark one looks great!

Robin understands Boomification. It will be not an Cheap Adventure thats for sure with roughly 6Liters + X of Colour for the Room and £30 per small Bucket minimum. Maybe Valspar Sponsors you. 35k Subscribers is nothing to Spit about and it would be cheap Promotion

It’s really coming along now! When do you reckon you will start building in there?

New Lego room looking good. 👍Definitely go for 1 blue then add some white Lego clouds ☁️, one of them could even have a half sun by it like this ⛅️. I think make it simple so don’t need the cool Lego box art on real walls - that be too hard. Definitely agree with the colour choice thought 💭 the same. JJ F

Bottom blue is best in my opinion, but I'm just one of 35k subscribers who pry have an opinion on this.

Robin’s Egg Blue?

I'd paint it for you, but I'm 5,163 miles away from you.

can you give me a fast forward button please bc i want to see the new lego city already

As a Painter please don't use Valspar it's absolutely 🐕 💩 paint.
