How big are you planing this to be :-)

Well that is a good question.  Space is becoming a bit of an issue although I
just got 36 16x32 Tan Baseplates and 4 16x32 Tan Baseplates in trades so that
is pretty big.  I like everything in my setup to be LEGO and that includes the
ground which is why I am getting so many Baseplates.  One option for me is to
set up some shelves in my basement to display my models and then just set up
the whole city for special occasions.

What I really want to do for the center-piece of the city is a large DkGray
keep.  Of course I don't have much in the way of DkGray bricks at the moment
but I am hopeing LEGO Direct will come through for me.

I would also like to build several more wall sections although that is a lot of
X-wings just to build the wall.  (The X-Wing is the only set with Gray Inside
Corners (2)) and each wall section requires 4 inside corners (or Gable
Connectors).

For the immediate future I will keep building small buildings as supplies
permit.  I would like to build a detached stable for the Inn which will require
another large purchase of Red slopes but that is a possibility.

So for now I have no real thoughts on overall size but for the time being it
just depends on my current supply of parts and how I can get more parts that I
need either through trade or a good deal.
