Ya know, I've been into Lego for a while myself. I haven't had the time or • money
I'd have liked to have for it over the last few years, but I do still love • Lego.
I've been coming to this site for a while now, and I just have one question • for
everyone. How do all of you pull it off?

My own first answer is: just keep practicing :-)

For your amusement, take a look at the pics of my first two towns several
years ago, which show some progression, compared with the more recent stuff:

First town

Second town

recent work:

Another answer is, to look hard at the prototypes of what you're trying to
build, to get not just the basic outline, but the defining details. Photos
and site visits all help.

And have fun :-)
