Very nice.

It's nice to know that there are other folks who are cool enough to embrace the beauty of celluloid!

The first Brondel I ever played had that cool celluloid on it; the aforementioned hog A2c. So it's a bit of an homage, plus I agree that it's very cool.

Default Penultimate photos
I was out of the country for almost three weeks and Laurent was in Europe, so these are the "almost done" photos that I forgot to post.
