New member here, and just finished this build. Absolutely incredible, the best thing I've ever constructed in Lego! I have a couple of queries Jerac, that I wonder if you can answer?
1) The stand has a slightly upward trajectory. Is this necessary to ensure that the model is properly balanced, or was it an aesthetic choice? I personally prefer my stand to be relatively flat, but I'm reluctant to modify if the model won't be properly supported!
2) I notice on your images of what is presumably your own build, you have red within the 'headlight' pieces on the nose - How have you achieved this, I would love to capture that similarly?
3) Finally, do you have any plans to publicly 'update the build' with any new features etc?
Once again, stunning work. Thank you for providing me a few days of joy in the build, and plenty of moments of joy admiring it in my office!
