Cheers guys,
Here is the slow process of building the steps. There are 25 sets of different sized ones to do. Here are a couple pics of them in progress.

Cheers guys. Much appreciated comments. It doesn't look like I've done much but too many small parts take a while to do.

Hi Chris, there may be a lot of small parts for you to fit but it's the small parts that really add the striking detail to any model and this one is certainly showing that to the full.... Fab work and a pleasure to follow.....Love Love .. Look forward to the next update...
