Not a user, ornamental. I’ve only done 1/8th scaled down versions prior to, gotta request to do one this size and only did it because of who asked. I ain’t really sold on how it looks but too close to the deadline to scrap it now.

I’m hoping the head turn and a good paint job will get it there. lol
