I wanted legos for my birthday, but I didn't know what set I wanted, and eventually I got the idea to make my own in LDD and just order the parts off Pick-A-Brick. I decided to make a default blockland save for nostalgia's sake. I looked them over and settled on the Gazebo section of ACM city, since it was on a 64x64 baseplate, and I already owned 4 32x32 lego plates. This is a mostly-accurate recreation, but a few things are different. The roof of the gazebo, for one. I had to improvise because Pick-a-Brick didn't have the exact ramp pieces needed, iirc. The benches are also 6 studs long instead of 8 (that was just my mistake in LDD, which I didn't realize until I had ordered the parts).
Pics:
I also made the blockland ingame avatars of some of my friends out of legos and put them in the build. I couldn't do everyone I wanted though, since some people have really specialized avatars and thus were hard and expensive to make irl. For the ones I chose to do though, I think I did well enough:
From left to right:
Lordician, Bomb Kirby (he just has the default avatar), Madman (not an actual person but I saw the red head on bricklink and thought it would be funny to make), GR8DAYSETH, Carbon Zypher, Me, Tophat, Aware, Pecon, and Redconer (I think he switches between a guy in red chainmail armor and an orange juicebox thing with peglegs, so I made the latter). I also made Armyunit and Hanhan13 but I didn't put them in this picture. They were in the gazebo and I didn't want to have to remove the roof to put them back in after taking them out for the picture.

Armyunit and Hanhan13. Army's the blue guy and Han is the red and pink girl.
Lordician just chilling I guess. Wasn't sure where else to put him lol.
GR8DAYSETH, sitting on a bench that's 2 studs shorter than it is in blockland. Oops.
Aware making spammy fire bricks and Pecon getting annoyed at him for it. All while Tophat sits AFK.

A-master for making ACM city in 2008.
