Brilliant Barrie .

I love seeing large scratch built stuff, and am a bit of an addict myself, recently completing the "Prometheus" and am going through a Red Dwarf stage at the mo.

I had an idea of doing something from thunderbirds but you've set the bar very high with this!

Have 5 well earned stars

This is wicked Barrie...the word "epic" comes to mind. Im convinced Gerry and Sylvia Anderson would love this for a prop. Another level mate.
