Top result !
I am envious of your glow of relief at completion of this long term build;

!
I am hopeful of experiencing the same elation within 8-10 weeks or so with the Normandie ....

That can be a very difficult ' feel' to emulate in a model of small dimensions
I think you have cracked it!
Bravo
