Remko - You making a great work.

I also build this amazing and hard model some years ago.

I remember that you follow my tread during my build.

Wow, this works amazing! Without this tool I can't finish the job, I wish I had this idea earlier...
It is amazing how much steadier your hand is when you work under magnification. It really sharpens your eye-hand co-ordination (-=

Amazing amount of fine cutting out of pieces. I don’t think I could do that in a million years.
Fantastic work so far. Looking forward to seeing more of this masterpiece completed.

I'm ready! This feels like a relief... After such a long work, I was happy when I glued the last piece, the whole top of the structure, onto the model.
I took the model outside in my garden for some pictures and it looks so real in the sun!

Now it stands peacefully with the rest of my models I've build and I can go on with another project. I bought the Statue of Liberty and the London tower bridge from Schreiber bogen, so there's still enough to do here

Thanks for all the readings and the comments!

Incredible, it looks so real out there. An extraordinary work, magnificent where you look at it. Really admirable. I never cease to be amazed by what I see in this forum. Any praise is little to qualify your work. I take off my hat Mr.

Thumbs up

That does look quite real. Great photography and a very impressive finished model.

Great-looking model. I particularly like the first pic with tower soaring up against the blue sky. Great stuff!

Excellent work all around -- model, photos and the text of your posts.

Very nicely done
