thanks for the feedback , i think is type of modeling is like doing a giant puzzle , but thats in my opinion is the part that is so incredible attractive, i think its impossible to portrait a true copy , every model has the signature of the owner , and that is impossible to recreate
thanks once again for putting your work for all to see , be sure that across the ocean you have a true fan
Thank you Gonçalo. You are probably right and i agree each of us builders has our own way of interpreting things and i guess style even when it is the same subject. It's extremely hard to replicate at times what others have done and is really why close enough should be good enough. Glad ya like the build but really all the different builds being posted are fantastic.

Very sharp, clean and THE most accurate one built yet. I dread parking mine next to it, my build would look like it's made from dough in comparison.

There ya go again, putting down ya own work for no reason. Obviously your the only one that can't see how good your own build is there. She's a stunning piece what you've got and the closest to finished out of any i know of that are being built. It be way cool to have em displayed next to each other but you'll be waiting at least a couple more years for this one to be finished. If yourr is not finished by years end i think it simply comes dowh to being slack!
Just remember that beast of a thing you've constructed has been a lot of inspiration to follow you down this crazy path. For me and others out there.
Just hurry up and finish the bloody thing will ya!
Small update with the port side neck detailing. This is almost all the parts glued that i'll glue down bar a couple more. After those next couple of pieces it'll be time to chip the crap out of this section as it's a nightmare when i look at them all. After that lovely job it'll be another favourite of mine and time to run all the damn pipes to everywhere they get run on this area and they run everywhere don't they..
Once i get all that fun done i'll be able to then add the final part's here and there and hopefully it'll look sorta like it should. For now though this is where it's at.
