I'm still alive, still playing Animal Crossing, and this accursed build has only gotten better

Happy New Year from Plaice!

I haven't been too active here recently (I've been super busy at work and taking the update at my own pace, so everything is very under construction lol) but someday I'll finish my new builds and I'm excited to show them off!

I love inspecting ACNH builds trying to figure out how they were accomplished and YES i'm doing that currently with your pictures 🔍👀 I'm rrying to figure out area 51 - I'm guessing the smaller houses are doll houses? I don't recall ever seeing those before. What is the alien ship from?

Oh jeez tumblr never notified me about this message so I hope I'm not answering this way late...

The small houses in the front are indeed doll houses, which you can buy during the Toy Day (aka Christmas) period. The small buildings in the back are throwback containers, which are regular furniture you can get anywhere.

The alien item is the flying saucer, which is a DIY you can get from Celeste.

A full list of everything in the build:

Throwback container x5, terrarium, record box, kagamimochi, wooden block toy, server x2, pedal board x2, DAL model plane, sapling, mini circuit, pine bonsai tree, fragrance diffuser, Festivale lamp, flying saucer, pocket modern camper, doll house x2 (plus barbed wire fence, simple wooden sign, and garden gnome in the front)

Got my pier all ready for Kapp'n! Any other Population Growing vets fondly remember the cucumber song?

Finally a use for the museum I'm happy with!

Of course I was putting the finishing touches on this area after ages of work, feeling super proud of what I created, and then the Direct drops the news that we're going to get ancient ruined columns and arches added to the game... very cool.

I can't remember if I've shared pictures of Area 51 before, but I just redid a lot of it and I'm much happier! Only the best for my tiny aliens 👽

A couple people in the notes were asking what the balloon items are - the big glowing ones are from the Festivale event! The smaller collection of balloons on the left are from the Bunny Day set and the birthday event.

This is the holy grail of Animal Crossing photography.

A villager in the yard you built for them, using their furniture, wearing a matched set of clothing, matching with the aesthetic of the furniture, holding an object that also matches, sitting still for long enough to get photos. Some say the photographer waited 20 years to get this shot. These events won't align like this again for another 300 years.

Had someone over and was able to get a nice shot of gladiatorial combat

The Carnival of Time

Don't even ask how long I spent waiting for this one custom firework to go off in the area not blocked by the buildings and without any other fireworks at the same time. But I really wanted a picture of it looming over a bustling town square like in the game, and after much, much waiting, I finally got the shot. What do you think, was it worth the wait?

Did anyone else go wild over the new boba items? As soon as I saw them online I rushed out to make a little boba store in preparation.

(Bonus: before and after. It always amazes me how much you can fit in a seemingly impossibly tiny space!)

Just updated with a bunch of new content! Come visit Plaice at DA-9976-0594-6443!

Start out in the urban center, then make your way outside the city and see what you might discover. The island has a globe-spanning, ancient, and sometimes mysterious history...

Now with improvements on old areas and brand new content, including the big builds I've posted about on this blog and more!

My island is all about exploring and discovering new things, but if you’re on the fence about visiting or want to make sure you didn’t miss anything, here’s a map of landmarks to see under the cut:
