Actually it doesn't really take very long to build something in the
size that normally appears on Brickshelf.
If you're into capital shipbuilding, however, better take a vacation
from work for a few weeks :^)
I found that my main probablem with time is that my Legos weren't
sorted well. I'm currently correcting that.
As far as skill is concerned, that seems to come with trial and error.
Some things work, some don't. Familarity with the pieces and how they work
together help immensly. For instance, I'm just learning how well Technic
parts work with other pieces to make detailed and functional ships.
