Thanks guys. The little bits of clutter were probably the most fun part for me. :) I even found an image for the label on the beer can that Quint was drinking and made a few cans to scatter around the deck. Oh, and Hooper's styrofoam cup too. Heheheh. I want to say the scale is in the neighborhood of 1/12. It's hard to find any info on the boats actual dimensions but I think that's pretty close. For a few of the props I bought 1/12th scale dollhouse stuff which seemed pretty nearly correct. I essentially used Pat Tritle's drawings at 1:1 ratio.
