That's great to hear THX1138 . . its the 31st here already in Australia user added image

I never saw that last render of yours, I don't know how I missed it considering I've been keeping an eye on this thread. It looks really good man. I've got my fingers crossed that you'll finish it on time.

All the best for the new year too user added image

Looks like I'm going to have to take this to the "Work In Progress forum". The new years holiday weekend at my theater is going to be too busy for my to finnish this off by deadline....what a bummer.:angery: Look for updates in the WIP forum in the next few days, when the holidays are over.

I'm sorry to hear that you can't finish it on time but why not post it as it is now? It's already looking very real. You can continue work on it later as well if you wish. It's your choice though, but i just wanted to let you know that it looks great user added image

Anyway all the best for the new year and a toast for all your great work user added image

Thanks for the kinds words t1ck135, cris007. I'm still going to finnish the model. I have invested too much time in it to stop, reguardless of the competition deadline.
