This little beauty arrived today. Tony's first attempt at a Kiwi and it turned out just great.

Thanks everyone, and especially Tony. :D The curly koa was my idea Roman, had some pieces left over from the R2 that STR customized for me.

Already have another Kiwi project in the works with Tony. For now I'll just say the scale material is something completely different. ;)
