Well this is the final product!
Not the best pic, but i will eventually take some photos with some actual sunlight.
This build has been the most extensive so far, but damn it's been fun

Enjoy

Film it carefully...it may only happen once...

On our wedding night my wife looked like this . I said "What? It's 12th scale..."
