Hi Andonio,  Monty will remain as is,  he shows up well in the cockpit when the canopy is on

That's why I liked the idea of Monty being 1/72! ;)

Why should an alien be 6' tall? Why can't he/she/it be 18' tall? ???

Fair comment OW  ;)

Perhaps I should sell this one as "scale as applicable,  measure to taste" ???

Fair enough. Aliens should be as tall as needed!

But  why is Monty playing diamond maracas? :) :) :)

The Cappuccino is coming along great. Love the cockpit details!

Hi Antonio, 

"Diamond maracas"  LOL  ;D

They are Barbarella style control sticks, they will be linked to floor boxes during final assembly.

I always enjoy your work, Mog but I think this could be your most delightful creation yet!

It just hits all the right points and is wicked fun too!

Love the headlights and alien.
