Le Gros Ventre by marsalv - FINISHED - 1:48 - POF


Recommended Posts

The build is magnificent overall, but I especially like your blocks.  Amazing what can be done with modern tools compared to the old days.  The problem is that every time I see what can be done by folks like you, it makes me want to spend money on the latest technology. Thankfully my accountant/admiral/wife asks me to wait and see if I really need it.  Saved us LOTS of money over the years.

I could buy every tool you own and come no where close to the caliber of work you do.  The latest example being your blocks, they are amazing.  The stove is incredible, as are details like the charcoal stove.
 

I hope this model ultimately will reside in a museum, a place that it can receive the admiration it deserves and viewed in person by many.

 

Well done. 

Regards,

Glenn
