It's all been said Colin. Terrific work. All the little doodads really make this one. The water splash cover really looks good.

If you get bored with it, send ot to me, it will get front of shelf on the top shelf of one of my display cabinets!!

And here's the rare aircraft carrier version. Joint Army/RAAF command I'd say!
