Stop being clever other people

  Yet again I've come across something that makes me wonder why I can't do something like that. Following the Lego blog I do I see some pretty good constructions that people have done. This particular one though I enjoyed a lot.

  How cool is that. A whole bunch of claptraps made from Lego. It intersects both my videogame interest (with a game I really enjoy) and my Lego interest. Yet I see this and wonder why couldn't I do that. I just don't think of things like this. I like following exact instructions and coming out with a nice looking final object but having the imagination to do this just eludes me. Le sigh.
