You've probably seen this already, but if you haven't...

I was spending some more time today re-studying this great artist and his build when I realised he had passed away in 2013. Such a loss to the more gentle world.
His build is a benchmark for the 'too much attention to detail is never enough' camp.
This page shows what he did with the exterior (don't know why the .au is in there; delete it if the page won't load for you)

Have a rifle through his blogs until you find his build photos. Fantastic. I am sure all you get-me-out-of-town-NOW folks will enjoy his bird pics as well.

(ps I pick my old chassis up Wednesday next week and now I'm feeling very inadequate :oops: )

I hadn't seen it, thank you so very much for posting this! Wonderful work on his teardrop and he took such lovely photos of the birds! Sorry to hear of his passing away.

Nice work!

He left some great art for others to enjoy!

Rob, the blog is L O N G and I get annoyed hunting for build pics..but have you seen his fitting out? It is amazing. I particulary loved his marquee to work in, his building table and his rib-jig. No effort spared.
