Every time I turn around on this site, someone is building my newest, most favorite model.  It had been a while since you posted Giorgo, and I had forgotten that Amalio had a peer in the fine art of arsenal modeling.  Your Fleuron is a spectacular accomplishment in every way.  I am glad to see that you are active again

We are all works in progress, all of the time.

It's great to see that you're still building her,Giorgio.  I hope it's just life that gets in the way and nothing's wrong.

I wonder if Giorgio is doing ok.  He said he had some health problems and hasn't been online here since June of last year.
