Fabulous! A marvelous collaboration not unlike the geniuses behind the original King Kong. If this project had been around in 2005 I believe a dirigible would have turned up in Peter Jackson's Kong.

I am going to take a little hiatus from bashing for a little while, to catch up on some other personal life responsibilities that I put to the side. But rest assured, "I'll be back"! :mrgreen2:

No, more like making $$$ to pay the bills, spending more time w wifey & friends and doing some more scanning of the thousands of old family photos for the family history - a multi-year project that I devote time to whenever I get tired of modeling ... :D

Sorry, a bit late to this party. I have a major distraction ATM.

Wow! Your build and the alcove does indeed look AMAZING. Awesome Vlad.

I'm guessing visitors are pretty clear on what your hobbies are. What is the reaction of your equally amazing wife?

Where to from here? A Rhedosaurus in the freezer?

Thank you Squiddy. Truthfully, I am not even thinking about another project at the moment. Lots of other "life stuff" to catch up on ... :mrgreen:

Fair enough. I do understand you have other priorities. We're heading into Autumn here, which is a bit of a relief and I'm just a bit high on building ATM is all. All the best with it all.
