I know this is odd and most probably—just me. But your (shrox) designs look much better built than they do in photos or artwork. Just say'in. Not that they look bad at all—they look just fine, but looking at the real thing is far more impressive.

That fella did a swell job with the Skonk Wulf.

I just don't have the dexterity anymore to do more than a boiler plate test build. All the test models are white and unsanded!

You may want to consider getting someone to beta test build your design in return for marketing glamor shots.

Oh, don't think I was criticizing you at all. I wasn't.

I had just seen a couple of photos of built and finished Shrox kits recently and thought that the "real thing" looks pretty sharp. You do good work.
