That's oversimplifying a bit.  Large can be very hard, especially if it has
to be able to be picked up and flown around the room.  It's also difficult,
IMO, to fill in all the empty space in a large construction with interesting
detail and plenty of moving parts.  With a smaller creation, especially one
modeled after an existing thing, "all" you have to do is simplify the
detail--you don't have to invent more.  Structural elements are not as
important in a small model either.

(...) Ya, that raises a good point. When you're checking out a 1000 piece MOC it's bound to be somewhat impressive if only because it's large. But a 100 piece MOC that makes you go wow is WAY more remarkable. Large is easy. Small is hard. ++Lar (23 years ago, 28-May-01, to lugnet.space)
