  1. I was actually a bit surprised when I realised it had finally been published. I only came across it on my Twitter feed 😂
  2. I could possibly only add a few villagers but they wouldn't have Wigan shirts on 😂
  3. Brilliant, thank you so much, I think the fact I've gone into such minute detail is partly down the fact I have Aspergers. I can remember my support worker saying while I was building that the chances are that if I didn't then there's no way I'd have kept myself focused on it for as long as I did
  4. Ah ok, I only built what we currently have, if those areas are added then of course I'll add them in
  5. Leigh White suggested I do Burnden but before the Normid store was built. I barely remember Burnden at all because I was only a year old when the final game was played there. If I do build it, I could always do a sort of before and after to please both sides, so a few images of it prior to 1986 (when Normid turned up), and a few of how it would have looked in the 1990s. Quite a few people have now said to me to try and tweet it to Toby or Ollie and see if it could be put to use by the club in any possible manner, and I do want to do that, so I'm currently in the process of "remastering" the videos to make them more professional and indeed presentable before I send the link across. Thank you very much 👍
  6. Haha, it is one of those games I guess, it's always good to engage with that community and see what everyone is building or creating. The stadium in real life took about 15 months between June 1996 and September 1997 at a cost of £25 million, my version took over 3 years owing to numerous delays, alterations and modifications, however, if I'd have built it correctly with no issues at all I reckon I could have had it finished in around 16 months. Thank you very much I really appreciate that 👍
  7. To be fair while I was building the Reebok, I did consider doing Burnden Park at some stage as a bit of a nostalgia trip, although I think images pre-Normid might be difficult to come by
  8. Correct, I turned 2 about 2 months later funnily enough, thanks again
  9. Practically lifelong haha, I remember my very first game was the very first game at the stadium when I was a year old. I went with my dad and our neighbour and sat in North lower, I was asleep by half time and woke up on the couch at home with my mum sat next to me haha
  10. Thank you very much, in all I went through 3 stadium tours, 200+ images, plus any photos and videos I could take after finishing my shift (I work at the ground on matchdays as well) in order to build it. There were times (especially when I came across certain issues while rebuilding the upper half) where I just wanted to stop, but I really wanted to carry on, because I think for me in the end it was more than just building a stadium, I was building our stadium for the club, the fans and everyone else and thus I wanted to put in the maximum amount of effort to get it done, and I'm honestly proud of how it turned out 👍
  11. Build a mosque you mean? I have seen some people do that, but I prefer to stick to stadia
  12. I can't build people but there are many out there who can, plus I think something like that would likely be blocked on YouTube 😂😂
  13. Thank you haha, The reason the sun is round as opposed to square is because I used the City texture pack, which makes things look more realistic
  14. Thank you so much it really means a lot, if I'm honest even though it took 3 years and 2 months to finish I could have had it finished in 16 months, but in around June 2017 I wasn't happy with how it looked so I demolished the roof, upper tiers, exterior and the suite level, and then rebuilt it. 😂👍
  15. To be fair my brother took it a lot more seriously than me when we got Minecraft 9 years ago, but sometimes making things up can be the way to go Thank you very much 👍
