    I don't mainly build lego cars, I was mainly in the Lego Weapons community, but since switching to freelance I've been dabbling in pretty much every part of Lego Builds. I have made quite a bit of cars as well with different designs in different sizes. Some of the things I learned are
    1. Focus on the shape first and formost, the shape is the most important part in creating a car model. Smaller details matter, but if you are sacrificing the shape for the detail, it would ruin the shape. Shape is what makes the car "The Car".
    2. For smaller models, there are just shapes and details, that are incredibly hard to capture. Instead of trying to get the curves and the angles perfect, keep it simpler. Being the builder adds a disadvantage, it has a creator bias, which means details that you have envisioned may not be seen as such by other people. Every once in a while, take a break, after a while look at the model as a whole and maybe compare the vehicle. It can help get rid of that tunnel vision on that one detail, and get a better idea on how to continue the project or make adjustments that could work.
    3. Just keep trying ideas, there are no bad ideas In lego, just try out things and see what works and what doesn't. Yes it's very annoying when you get an idea and it doesn't work but there's eventually going to be one or a few that would turn to something actually great.
