Nope the wife does not get credit for this one, all she did was set the nose. That is not enough work to get credit for. Thanks for the compliments on it though. Especially the base, I think I keep doing good on them I might have to start charging for them, but until I get enough confidence in my abilities I will continue to do them for free ;)

I may start, really been playing with the water and snow scenes, but that stuff is expensive to play with at 97.00 a gallon.
