Your work is not only very fine, but is also quite educational.

 Inspirational work, Giampieroricci.  I didn't realize how tiny that was until I saw on your finger.

Beautiful work, Giampiero.  I noticed the wonderful touch of the ropes securing the chimney hood over the fireplace.  That's a detail I don't think I've seen before in any build.

If you've used actual lead, Giampiero, might I suggest sealing it with either acrylic medium or lacquer? It will prevent the lead turning to white lead salts in a few years' time. You've done a great job on a difficult part of the build.

You are right!
I give a coat of clear lacquer matte finish to fix all the small scratches that inevitably are created while working on the model!
Thank you for your suggestion!
