Thanks for looking! Comments are very welcome [:)]

Wow, that is very impressive!

WWWWWOOOOOOWWWWW!!! That is the coolest thing I have ever seen. I’m guessing you are some type of engineer, since you could probably build something similar in real life. Good luck on any other projects, too, as I see nothing is impossible for you.

Lookin’ really good! That’s some serious scratchbuilding, congratulations!

Thank you sir! But I am no engineer, I am an undergraduate on computer programming course…I am unemployed so I am making profit out of scratchbuilding models [;)]

Saw this the other day and meant to comment but it scrolled off the front page and I forgot.

This is professional quality work! Love what you’ve done here. [Y]
