Awesome work John! Your detail is outstanding. I have to give you props on your wood choice. Pine is very hard to maintain detail and accuracy with as it always tends to stray when you drill any kind of hole and the elusive pitch that gets on all blades and bits. I usually will build a prototype out of pine so if I mess something up it doesn't cost much. But your model looks better than mine made of hardwoods.
Later,
Bret

John John John,
Talk about pulling a rabbit out off a hat, What a great job the detail is fantastic, you should be wrapped with how well it came up. Its a pity you couldnt get the rest of the detailing done it would have really set it off. Well done and look forward to the next project.
Proud to be an AUSTRALIAN
