On a side note, isn't it great to have a dedicated workspace? Up until a few months ago, I had to drag out all my supplies from a closet and set up shop in the dining room to paint a figure or whatever. So, my output was low and just the thought of getting everything set up usually sapped me of the will to start the project. Now that I have a small desk set up with everything at my fingertips, I can't wait to work on stuff. I look forward to it. It took me about a year and a half to do 6 Doc Browns. Since I set up my desk, I've done 35 or so in a couple months.

Thank you very much for your motivational words. I'm so glad you liked it.

While creating the foundation of the house, I worked with thick cardboard with styrofoam inside. Then I used Balsa wood, one of the best workable materials for the wood veneer. I made each of the wood grains one by one with a needle. I haven't used any power tools yet for cutting and carving. I use only utility knives and ordinary tools used for modeling.

You summarized it so beautifully. It's great to have your own workspace. Until I set up this workshop, I was trying to make something on the tiny table in my room and scattering everything around my room. Now, everything is in front of me and I work in a planned manner. I can make pieces that would take hours in minutes.

I will share more detailed information when the project is completed. Thank you very much again.
