Power plant, frinks lab and tire fire.

Anyone? :p
  • Power plant can be put with Duff brewery (if you have it)in a large fenced off area. this makes it look like an industrial area.
    The tire fire I've put with 2 dumpsters in a small fenced off area where I put all my garbage that I haven't cleaned up yet. It's kinda like a recycling center.
    Frinks lab I put with the super collider which makes up a little science section in my town.

    I might steal part of your idea for the tire fire but with my duff brewery I have it next to the school for a bad influence on kids
  • I made my power plant a arboretum, spread the pieces out a bit, ton of trees, gazebo, bench, newsstand.

    The tire fire I butted up to the back of the Muntz house so it appears you have to go through there to get to it. They are the owners. Also placed gas pumps outside of it with a bench between,

    Frink's lab well not a fancy design but there is a whole convoluted thought behind not town that this is all Frink's creation and is a somewhat Prisoner set up.

    I would post pics, but have to figure out how to do it, I know it is not hard, just time. If you want to add me to see feel free, though I am pretty full on friends
  • This is what I did with all the stuff you wrote about.

    The idea was to make an industrial area, but I liked putting the big stuff against the mountains as they appear larger due to forced perspective. (I also went Springfield sign, tire fire, Scorpio's lair, power plant, penitentiary because that's the order I bought/unlocked the items.)

    IMO, since Scorpio's lair is a volcano, it should go up against the mountains in the background. The tire fire resembles the volcano, so it looked OK next to it.

    The discharge from the power plant flows over the mountains, which it kind of cool, and penitentiary looks bigger when it's behind the Duff Brewery.

    Feel free to borrow any of these ideas if you feel they help.

    Its suppose to be in a forest area but i had to remove most of the trees
  • My tire fire is part of a gas station area. Otto also lives there.
    Frink lives in a regular housing area (it seems that's how it is in the show), though he did manipulate some hedges.
    Nuclear power plant is by the town lake, fairly central as it was one of the older springfield buildings.
  • My Power plant I just put on an island



    Firk's Lab I put next to the Mapple Store because they are about the same size. Also, Proffesor Frink probalbly visit the Mapple store to sell inventions or buy stuff or something like that.
