Always a good starting point.
But don't try to run before you can walk. Just start with a simple idea,
and develop it.
It's a bit like decorating a house. You don't try and do all the rooms
at once. But by the time you've finished, you're quite good at it.
The more you practise, the better you'll get. I can sympathise with you,
because I'm in the same position. Just before Christmas, I made my first
MOC for about eighteen years. Now I have plans for several other things,
and I'll go back and redevelop the building I've just made.
So I would say, pick an idea, and go with it. Even if it's just an
extension of an existing theme, it will be something that *you've* made,
and it will give you other ideas. Then practise.
