I guess I fall into the "Build, photograph and tear down to build anew"
category.

Putting ones MOCs into .DAT file format greatly eases the heartbreak of having
to destroy ones models for future creations.

Or so I think... ;-)

(To Dan) Did you have to tear down your original carrier to start this one?

(To everyone) Do you keep models built until you have no choice but to tear
them down for parts, or do you treat them like models - they're built and
stay built and work around that to make new creations?

Build, photograph and tear down to build anew.

- or -

Build, photograph and keep it built till the parts are needed?



And if you do tear it down to build new, do you tear it ALL down or just
snitch the parts needed and leave the rest built till the next part is needed?

I have found myself building till I run out of bricks and then trying to
scrounge up something else that works rather than cannibalize currently
built MOC's.

I think I tend to do this because I remember how much time was put into them.

And usually I find that I tend to try and keep them together as long as
possible, even when stealing bits off of them - if it's not a key piece that
would destroy the whole thing just to get to.

Jus' wonderin'... :)
