I scoped out the green/grey one. You've got some very nice effects there, I
like the cornice. Is that just bricks turned 90 degrees?

45;-)

However it *is* a big building. Try some selective compression. Bigger isn't
always better.

But is usually more impressive....

I can see where the rest of GMLTC is coming from, your
buildings would overwhelm the scale of the rest of the buildings.

Well, the chateau is agreeably too large, but this green one is one of my
*biggest* buildings.  I'm tired of minifig scale (you know, buildings with no
rears, etc).  Now that we (GMLTC) are uncompressing with our train car width, I
think we should uncompress the buildings a little as well.

But whether or not my structures end up as a part of the layout or not isn't my
concern.  They all will fit in nicely on my home layout:-)
