Tutorials for using the Classic Theme?

Just wondering if anyone knows of any building tutorials out there that better explain specifically the Classic Theme. I'd like to build a zoo that has a lot of old buildings (including an old entrance) in a modern zoo, but there are so many pieces in the classic set that I don't know how to use or even what they are.
 
Great question. One of the classic pieces is the glass shop front and I wonder how on earth you can use that in a way that looks good :D

Did you check DeLadySigners recent video yet? She builds a classic entrance based on Zoo Leipzig, Germany. And her City Zoo should include classic buildings in the future. Maybethat helps.
 
I think it would be a good Idea to to get Inspiration from real historic Buildings

I think maybe it's supposed to be placed directly in Front of a Shop Front that is made out of another Material

Yeah, I watched her video, and I've also been watching a few others who've been using the theme, but it's difficult with speed builds to really see what pieces they're using and where. I mean the classic theme has so many roof trimmings and balustrades and whatnot.
 
Agreed. Let me know when you find good tutorials. My next sandbox project will have a lot of classic elements, so I could need some inspiration as well.
 
Maybe you can use the first Career scenario to see what pieces are used where and how. I don’t know whether all buildings are editable in Career mode, but they probably are when you open the scenario in Sandbox.

Yeah I went and had a look at Goodwin House which was actually pretty helpful.
 
So I don't know how helpful these are actually gonna be (if at all) but I'm using quite a lot of the classic stuff in my new zoo and also uploaded some of the larger buildings to the workshop. It's no tutorial but since you said the Goodwin House stuff helped some I thought I'd post the links here anyway, in case you wanna take a look at them :)
