I was thinking, I keep trying to collect a lot of parts in one color or another, to accumulate a lot of pieces to actually build some of my own ideas. I try to find sets that seem to fit that bill. Like lots of tan brick in the Simpson's House set, or lots of dark orange in the Town Hall set. But then, you get it and realize, like in the Kwik-E Mart or the Simpson's House, that a large portion of them are actually large panel pieces and the majority of the high part count are small and pretty specific parts, like 1x1 round plates or the like. Its nice to have a lot of those small parts, but they have limited usefulness for me. I mostly just want to build buildings. Buying building sets like the Classic line doesn't really work, since they only give you a few of each of a lot of colors. You end up having to resort to BrickLink or other resale sites to gather what you need together. That gets pricey pretty fast. I think it kind of stifles my creativity too, because I keep having to make compromises in what I want to do, because of the cost/time it takes to do it. LDD is nice, I can have free rein there, just don't expect to build a lot of what I dream up. Oh well, keep on building!
