Those models are beautiful. I'm especially fond of your Millennium Falcon but that's personal bias. They are all great!

I like your desk. a bit too neat but organized
Here's my models with a twist. My view on my own "evolution" so to speak. The first is from the last century when Pactra and Testors little square bottles of paint ruled my hobby. An ancient but nice 1/48 Revell Bf-109G-10. The second is from a year or 2 ago, another Bf-109 G type subject but a 1/48 Hasegawa kit with a spray job, putty, ETC, wet sanding the whole 9 yards. Does look far better but doesn't have the "character" the first one has. LOL.

That is a very varied and amazing collection you have there John, some very nice builds. It's also a very neat workbench, you must have hidden all the junky bits away! 
Good work!
Lovely work!

That tooth caught me old eye!
I have one, bought at age 8 maybe, 1951, at the Steinhardt Aquarium S.F. My mother tried throwing it away,
my first wife did the same. It was not etched when I bought it. A co-worker machinist and artist friend
Arne Jensen did that work in 1976. For years he had been doing some scrimshaw on PVC pipe until we
met. I handed this bare tooth over to him in '74 I think. Never questioned when it would be returned.
My only request was King Neptune on one side the other was up to him. In the mean time, he and his son,
a friend and his son sailed from S.F. to Tahiti on a little 30 footer. He radioed in every day position, I had
a map on the office wall and plotted their trip. When they returned by air, he said he was ready to do
my Orca tooth. So as tradition dictated he sat down with "shark skin" to polish, knife and ink,
no references and scratched away. It's a prized possession! I later found four more random whale teeth
from various sources, they were payment for what he had done for me.
Apologies for not complying to "Post Your Models".........

Amazing craftsmanship and a definite family heirloom. Ummm, did he use an image of you to create the Neptune carving?? Sure looks familiar based on your posted image!

That tooth looks amazing , done a great job with the carving , im not sure what animal my tooth is from , my pop gave it to me years ago , i think its from some type of whale because he lived in streaky bay in south australia and lived his life on the ocean , he use to mount alot shark jaws for people and my nanna use to collect shells , few pics

Could be whale or walrus. There were a couple similar in the ones I found and gave to Arne.
Amazing Bill!
