THINGS I HATE [tips]
Barnabas:
I also hate "the huge loving box with exactly 1 detailed wall" type of builds. Especially when they want to pass it off as an old building. Old buildings had complex shapes because the lighting and ventilating could not be done otherwise as air conditioning was not available.
nixton:
/agree on the topic.

Jerkface:
Can I laugh now?
"If anyone puts effort into detailing a lego build, then they immediately piss me off"
That's all I got from this. Especially since the Ballroom uses that wall texture.

You don't get the topic then. It's not about the hate for detailing, it's about detailing wrong. You don't detail for the sake of detailing, you do it because you want to emphasize bits on the build or break up the monotony on larger surfaces. The problem is, most people try to cram all these into tiny 16x16 builds and suddenly think they are master builders or something. Some of the features (if done right) look good on a certain scale, but you have to know what you are doing and most people don't.
Think of detailing as the icing on the cake, not the cake itself.
