WOW Randy, you make me sick (in a good way).  I can't believe the detail and ability of your metal work.  There are no words to describe your work other than amazing!!
I guess I'll go back to my styrene, out of the box kits and try not to think about how cheap and 'plasticky' they look (even when I'm done)
 
Actually, your work is very inspiring. Thanks for sharing.
P.S. I would not be at all surprised if you get this bad-boy actually running on all cylinders.

I've seen some very impressive work in my time, but you've upped the bar on the word impressive. In the words of my generation, "Cool Man, Cool!".
