Monique....your first post was 11 November stating "so this is going to be my slow winter build......".

It's now two weeks later and you are getting skin on her! You'll be done before winter sets in proper!!! Then what?! :D

Starting to look mighty fine! However, I'm with the guys on this one, not looking much of a "slow winter build"... By my reckoning it'll be done before Winter even officially starts :lol: :lol:

Would it be a terrible imposition to ask for a photo with a human holding the model? Just to get an idea of size!

I'll take one over the weekend for you. To give you an idea, My head comes to the top of the bookshelf on the right, so just above the F14, and I'm 5'9" :)
