I, of course, am delighted with it. Great work, and an inspired replacement parts set.

Veddy nice! Love your color choices. Cant say 'Holmes' is a character I'm interested in, But I love conversions and having recently discovered Escape Hatch I'm more than happy to give kudos and praise! Best thing to happen to the styrene part of the hobby since the 'Parts Pit'! I miss that site..... :?
