Lego questions by newbies, and not-so-newbies

Cool, thanks guys for the helpful response . The project that I have in mind is primarily a single color so can be tricky.

UCS Millennium Falcon, Super Star Destroyer or Death Star II? OR your own Starkiller scaled to Death Star II?

Non Star Wars related although I guess you could make it so but not directly.

I'll give a hint - I mainly need light grey and to a lesser degree, purple colors.

I'm looking forward to see the results once you engage on this project. Though with the amount of grey bricks you're going to need, a replicator would have been ideal

You have no idea how often I dream I had a replicator, specially when I need a special part of some kind.

BTW, not Star Trek either

Anyone attend the Canberra Brick Expo this weekend?

Is there a guide on grey brick color terminology? Apparently there are lots of different shades and for my project to work, I need to be consistent in color for each piece so need to be sure when ordering.

I am basically after a light shade of grey. I was going to settle with 'bluish grey' but perhaps light grey would be more optimal. I just need to see the differences

Curious to know if there are standard display stands everyone is buying for their Lego ships.

I came across laserlab on eBay and their customs look amazing. If you've bought from them before, can anyone provide feedback over their angled 75105 Millennium Falcon display stand? How well does it hold?

Thanks in advance guys!
