Thanks!

This was a tough one and I can see the model is not 1-to-1. The painting, while beautiful and of a very cool design, has perspective issues once I started breaking it down. So the hard part was just getting the proportions right. In doing so, I noticed details that were not going to work in real life, and other details I missed while struggling to get the proportions right.

But, all in all, it's close and I've never made a model with this many complex compound curves surfaces, so it works for me. And I'm glad others like it.

Thanks again.

Great result. It was tough with only a single reference to work from.

A very determined and skilful step by step creation. Bloody marvelous, I am in awe of your building skills.

Thanks for the progress report as we all learn from your progress.

Looking forward to your next project, when you get round to it.

Thanks Rich. I had a lot more ambition than skill for this one. But as with all my tough ones, I learned a lot.

Thanks Mike. I'm working on the render but the render software has been updated and I'm learning how to use some new features in it.
