You're nuts, did somebody tell you that already?
But in a good way! Great job again. I wonder where you keep getting that patience to deliver such outstandingly sharp scratch-built master pieces!

Agreed, that's utterly butterly nutterly!
My favorite part? The fact that you put it on a seascape; maybe this is because I don't get out often enough, but I never really seem to see many, if any, sailing ships on seascapes.

Thanks
I don't have much patience at all though! This one took 58 hours, all timed on a stopwatch, and that included making the display case and carrying case. If I stop work for any reason, I stop the watch. I couldn't spend months or years on a model, and like to see them taking shape after the first few hours!
