Thanks Tony, yes it really is a great feeling. The eyes are incredible, it is insane how large the head and eyes are in proportion to the body, really looks nice. You have to see one to actually notice it, photos do not show it properly. Haha you got some nice stuff as well :)

Thats great he is feeding.
Its true the head and eyes look nice, and you're right it looks weird in comparison to the body.
