Do you want to make a cool looking model? Here are some helpful ideas for improving your LEGO® models and keeping them colour coordinated and cool to look at.

Steps
- Colour code your model. Choose one main colour for the model and stick with it. You might be unhappy with the way the model looks if you choose colours that don't match or look good together. Pick a second colour that lets you add details or be substituted for the main colour.
- Keep the pieces held together tightly so that it'll survive if it falls down off a table or somewhere.
- Finish the model. Make sure it's what you wanted to build and make sure that you like it. If you don't like it, bust it up and start from scratch again, this time building something better!
- Colour additions differently. To make additions after a finished model, use a second colour.
- Finished.
Tips
- Keep the model strong.
- While it may take some time at first, sorting your LEGO bricks into separate bins by colour or by colour group can make it much easier to create colour coordinated models.
- Colour code the model.
- Keep a quarter of the bricks the second colour, or less.
- If you don't make the model color coded, then make it as colorful as possible!
- If you don't have a certain amount of colored bricks but you need that color find some "stray" pieces and paint them
Warnings
- Keep small parts away from small children.
- Don't eat the bricks!
