It certainly looks a stunning model, and that detailing is excellent. I have to agree with Brian about the stripe though - I really think it could be crisper.

Sad that I am I have just calculated that Everest would be about 335 feet high in 1/87!

Alas very true, but hopefully it gave you a chuckle.

And the scale model would, I believe, be taller than any natural feature in the Netherlands.

I have to agree on that point Peter, and, as I recall, we have discussed this in the past In my opinion a satin finish will always look better on a model - it's something to do with the refraction of light.

As to the mountain - I think most of us would struggle with a 3 foot mountain.
