Build what you think will look good. You have to look at it, more so than anyone else, so go for something you will like. It's easy to get obsessive and go overboard on decoration, but it's well worth-it to have done a little.

I could have done better on my last one, but I'm glad I did the decoration I did put on it. It's all scratched and dinged up, but people still look at it, through all the wear and tear marks.
