WOW Rene' !!!<---- what a fantastic modelbuilder you are . That's  plain. I just came across this thread so I got to read/see from start to finish at once and Man, I gotta say, this is one of my favorite things I've seen on this site. In fact very unique. I enjoyed each and picture. I've never cared to work in such a small scale, but you show how it can have great advantages. Impressive.

This is one of the coolest dios I've seen in a long time! There are several pictures that I thought, "In black and white, that could be an actual photograph!" Very nice, I love it. Take it to a contest or two and it's guaranteed to win awards and draw lots of attention!

Very nice work indeed. Great weathering on the ship. Hats off to anyone who can scratchbuild this well.

I can't help but be reminded of the scene in Lawrence of Arabia where Lawrence seemingly sees a ship sailing in the desert.

 Were your medium paint, you would surpass Van Gogh, or any of the classics. Beautiful work, despite the stage it is set upon.
