qwerty2008 Posted April 15, 2014 Author Share #33 Posted April 15, 2014 (edited) Michael: There is no way to remove it from the bottle without destroying either it or the bottle and even if I were to break the bottle I don't have another that it will fit in also there's no guarantee that I wont have the same problems when bottling it the second time. As there was no deadline discussed I will probably finish it and keep it for myself then start on my next idea which will hopefully turn out better. Lextin.

qwerty2008 Posted April 28, 2014 Author Share #35 Posted April 28, 2014 I added the finishing touches to the Black Pearl and they made all the difference as the model now looks rather nice just as long as you don't look to closely. I will still finish the second one but I think that this one will be the getting a new home after all. Lextin. IgorSky, GrandpaPhil, JesseLee and 2 others 5 Quote "I have no special talent.
