Hehe.. I understand completely. My freighter is turning out that way.. it
was 'supposed' to be just as long as the 4 Falcon/Saucer sections as they
are in the pics, but then I opted to lengthen it since I realized I DID have
enough red brick laying around to pull it off.. though I'm pretty much
tapped out on grey plates ATM. I just can't bring myself to disassemble the
other MOC's that I've built recently, but haven't got posted, yet.

Nah.. that's just part of LEGO - what good is building if there isn't some
day dreaming to go along with it? Unless you're building something that's a
reflection of Real Life, and all, of course. Even then it's fun. :)
Imagination is good for the soul. :)

You haven't anything to worry about, there. That thing really is awesome -
it's even better the second time around. :)
