This is the model that got me back into the hobby after a multi-decade hiatus.
It took about 18 months, start to finish, mostly due to scheduling difficulties. Some of the time was taken by my fumbling with new techniques and materials - experience with plastic didn't translate into wood, brass and cloth...
I'm happy with the results, and look forward to the next project, where I get to integrate everything I leaned here, along with more work in Photo-Etch and metal forming.
