Thanks. I only got to see it for an hour while we were on vacation
last year. It is a very cool building. I tried red at first but it looked
to cartoon-like. Tan would be cool but I don't have near enough
to do that (and I even part sets). I think I used about 5-600 1x2
plates alone. I'm thinking of doing the surrounding building in
blue, do you think that would be too big a departure? It would
match the color scheme I have going so far (windows are ltblue).
