Cheers again  :)

Who's going to be responsible for the figures?

And I gotta ask.... once completed, how on earth do you safely transport it to Italy??

Figures are being supplied but I’m not 100% sure who’s doing it yet.

It comes apart in six sections which will be transported by truck to Gradara.

Yikes, that's going to be a big job! 8 foot by 12 foot, did I read that right?

A commission to retire on!?  :o ;). Well, maybe.

As others have said, this should be fun to watch the build process.  And I'm guessing the order book is postponed until this is completed.  Seems a rather major undertaking.

Good luck with this.  Truly.

Thanks  :)

What tine period will the diroma be set in?

Around the 1440's.

Hire a van, nice drive through the Continent at the right time of the year, write it off to tax. lol lol lol

As much as I'd like a jolly through the countryside it'll be shipped by a fine art movers I've known for years. Far too much shit to sort out if I do it on my own.

This is going to be fun to watch. You'll need a drone to take overhead pics of the complete assembled model!  8)

This is insanely cool! Is it going to be 3d printed or hand made?
