Hello Karl,

That really does look like a very nice model indeed and I love the colour of the wood - is that the natural colour or a stain/oil that you've used? Whichever, it makes what is obviously a new model appear very antique like and I love it!!

Well done on an excellent build so far Karl!! Cool
