                        Please stop berating your self. There appears to be nothing crude about your models. In fact, I think they show a great finesse, especially in braille scale!
                        You really did a terrific job. I wouldn't even know where to start such a project.
                        Congrats!


                        Bill:
                        thanx 4 ur kind & caring words !
                        i'm not really down on myself... (as in 'low self-esteem')Big Smile [:D]
                        just aware of areas that need improvement in general
                        & specific things i'd try 2 do better next time.
                        i think my biggest asset is being willing 2 try stuff i see in the mags...
                        i start with a list of tasks, make little production sketches,
                        spend a lot of time thinking about how 2 make each part...
                        by the time i actually get around 2 making a part, i've done
                        a lot of visualisation. and if it isn't rite, i try again..
                        i'm only out a few pennies in raw materials & a little time...
                        & i've usually learned something in the process !

                        thanx again, can't wait 2 see ur Firefly when it's done !

                        Wow! You're getting better and better Frosty! Sorry I missed much on the GB fronts lately, but it's real cool coming back and seeing such great workmanship! I still have to complete my Ambutank.. So I do not deserve that Sherman GB patch just yet. You've earned yours, with palms and diamonds, for sure!

                        Superb!

                        Frosty,
                        great job!
                        your work w/ these tiny kits amazes me.
                        and your scratchbuilding gets better each time.
                        keep it up.
                        looking forward to the M1.

                        WOW... I am very impressed. Your skills are improving all the time Frosty. Super Job. Now if we could get you into 1/35 you'd have some elbow room and be really getting busy.
