Hi Jim.

About all I can say is . . . WOW ! That's . . . . . . BIG !

And cool all in one . I really came to the realisation of how big that is when I saw the bottle of Tamiya paint, and realised that the bottle of paint could almost fit in the breach, to be launched across your modelling room :huh: . And the paint job looks good along with the construction so far
