I'm sure everyone knows by now that Jaws (the original) is my favorite movie  I have built many orca models and a Jaws dio but have just completed this one - it's a representation of the scene in the movie where the guys are sitting round the table having a drink and the Shark returns, first showing itself by the barrel that pops out of the water  It's fully lit up with nav lights, cabin lights, spot lamp and mast light - the barrel also has a flashing beacon on it. My next big challenge will be to combine a full shark with a partially destroyed boat for the "Quint" death scene. Here are some pics - stevie_o attached the following image(s):
