Amazing great work. "She" looks better than the real one. I must know because I have met her in Berlin personelly 😸

Thank you so much for the kind words, folks. If you're viewing this, you might be interested to know that X-Plus has announced a "seated" Maria, which includes all the wires and "lighting effects" that bring her to life (though you'll still have to source actual lights):

Sorry to dig an old thread but somehow I missed this. That looks superb. Can't help having Freddy Mercury's 'Love kills' pop into my mind when I saw it.
(In my humble opinion, Love kills was Mercury/Queens greatest track. And is certainly my favourite.)

All the best
