Matchstick titanic model (nearly done)

Titanic scale (1:115) matchstick model by tim elkins nearly finished, only railings davits and portholes to finish. Thousands of hours to create this model from 150000 matchsticks, no templates or card backing everything out of matches. This model is a one off and will be sold on compleation as I never intended to keep her myself, just wanted to know if I could make such a model. I would like it to be on show somewhere, we shall just have to see what happens.
