Answers.Text: @hazmatrec The number one way I've built up my collection is through craigslist posting of large lots of LEGO. If you're looking for pieces on the cheap, that would be the best way to go. As for brainstorming ideas, it's really just a matter of seeing what can fit where. If you're looking for inspiration, there are many LEGO builders on MOCpages and DeviantArt with... varying levels of skill, that you can pull concepts from and adapt or modify as needed.
