Thats the crucial part, and I think where a lot of people fall down. Their
design method seems to involve making some extremely cool doodads which use
parts cleverly, and then whack the lot together, overlooking (or even
sacrificing) form and concept in the process. So itll have some really
clever construction details, but the overall form or concept wont actually
be that exciting. Itll be just another spaceship that happens to use parts
cleverly. I dont know about you, but thats not enough to get me going.
Execution is important, but I prefer form and concept. Thats why this is one
of my favourite ships, even though it didnt recieve much attention:

I just found it visually and conceptually really inspiring. Building a
similar ship is definitely in my plans.

That ship has a very unique shape. I am interested to see what you do with it.

Thanks Mike. I look forward to seeing the ships you make when you pull out
your legos and start building again...

Unfortunately it may still be a bit before I get anything up here. I have a
seven week old son at home. Work, sleep and the baby take up most of my time.
I am really looking forward to the day I can introduce him to legos. :)

I've occasionally sketched a MOC beforehand, and I build with a supply of parts both from sets (which encourage new ideas) and from Bricklink (which facilitates existing ideas). I tried LDraw (...)
