I'm glad to get an update on this one. I haven't seen it for quite some time. It looks great. The exposed wood looks really well done.

Carlos,
Another outstanding piece my friend!
One after another they just keep getting better!
Did the "theatre front" ever go into production? I'm not sure if that is what the name was but it had a rounded front..........

Keep it up....you never cease to amaze!

Cheers,
Charles

I am not trying to get any one mad or upset but i am speaking my opinoin. i think the roofs look aq little out of place because there or explosion marks and the roof is still fine and they lok kind of cartoonish
