I appreciate the compliment - and that's exactly why I post those things, as I enjoy seeing others pull a rabbit out of the hat, too - just like you.

Plus, in this particular case, a tiny 500-scale build should give me about the best possible crack at my own personal dysfunction of not finishing a model: you can't get much smaller than a Destroyer Escort (although Hawk does make an even tinier, 1/600-scale LST, and Coast Guard Cutter)!
